Tynecastle Garage has successfully run cars in The Scottish Mini Cup for the last 7 years finishing no lower than 3rd overall in the Championship. In 2006 our drive line up was car number 1 Oly Mortimer and Car no 11 Garry Meikle. With this driver line up we finished a respectful 1st & 3rd in the 2006 Championship. In 2007 we retained the driver line up and competed in the National Cooper S Championship. With several team 1st and 2nd places we also secured and won that championship.
