Great driving... It looks like a few more laps and you would've been on him. I got to get myself out for some track time.

I had the same problem as you with the wind noise, so I made a wind sock, literally. I just took one of my socks cut it up and sliped it over my camera, I only have a digital camera, I am not sure if this is the type of camera you were talking about having, but if it is this works very well, no wind noise at all.

Lighter is righter on the track (about 300 lbs for the Mini).

If your top was up, you would have passed him!

Nice driving, what track is that?

Mini's are reknowned for their finess.

A number of higher end exotic owners use Mini's as their daily driver to commute to and from work because its such a fun and great car to drive.
