Murray Motors is proud to be one of the sponsors of Morgan (mechanic), who races a mini in the Scottish Celtic Mini Championship at Knockhill.
We are also proud of our mechanical team at Murray Motors who contributed to Morgan’s success, as the Mini was checked over and maintained after and before each race meeting.
As well as racing the mini, Morgan was usually called upon each meeting to change the gearbox or some other component as this class is quite brutal on the cars. Morgan could also be found using his mechanical expertise helping other teams. We have prepared the mini for this season and wish Morgan all the best. We will keep you updated as the season progresses.

The SMRC presentation awards where held on the 5th December at the Sheraton Grande in Edinburgh. Sir Chris Hoy and Gordon Shedden were two of the guests presenting the awards. Morgan made the journey down to pick up the Newcomers Championship Trophy 2015 for the Celtic Mini Challenge and came home with a clean sweep – Newcomers Championship (Mini) Cup 2015, Young Driver of the Year (Saloons) Cup 2015 and the Sheila Whyte Trophy (a special award chosen by the SMRC committee).
Morgan had a third place podium finish in his first year with 9 newcomer wins, he finished 6th overall in the championship and was also picked as a SMRC rising star. All the rising stars picked that season where invited down to the state of the art MacLaren factory and workshops in London.
