Tim Richmond (racing Driver, Born 1998)
Timothy Richmond (born September 12, 1998) is an American professional stock car racing driver who competes part-time in the ARCA Menards Series, driving the No. 27 car for his team, Richmond Motorsports. Racing career Prior to driving in the ARCA Menards Series, Richmond competed in a road racing series. Richmond made his debut in ARCA and stock car racing as a whole at Five Flags in 2019, driving for Wayne Peterson in his team's No. 06 car. Although he did finish 25 laps down (in 14th), he left the team impressed, as he was able to finish the race, something the team had not been able to accomplish much with other drivers. Being an underfunded team, WPR was still competing with steel-bodied cars, which ARCA was starting to shift away from. So, Richmond raced against newer cars and made it to the finish of the race in an older car. After that, the team quickly signed him on for more races, which later turned out to be almost a full-season effort. He also joined the battle f ...

Mini Cup Car
The Mini is a small, two-door, four-seat car, developed as ADO15, and produced by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and its successors, from 1959 through 2000. Minus a brief hiatus, original Minis were built for four decades and sold during six, from the last year of the 1950s into the last year of the 20th century, over a single generation, as fastbacks, estates, and convertibles. The original Mini is considered an icon of 1960s British popular culture. Its space-saving transverse engine and front-wheel drive layout – allowing 80% of the area of the car's floorpan to be used for passengers and luggage – influenced a generation of car makers. In 1999, the Mini was voted the second-most influential car of the 20th century, behind the Ford Model T, and ahead of the Citroën DS and Volkswagen Beetle.
