10+ lengths in one gear is almost impossible. I think he smoked you, but don't measure the lengths in Mini Cooper car-lengths.

That sounds like a good excuse... I was using the wrong length of car for describing the distance! it really wasn't that bad! ha

NEED FORCED INDUCTION!
just cuz it doesn't have a blow off valve doesn't mean it doesn't have forced induction.

cars also have bypass valves for turbos which don't make the "whooosh" sound. For example, my car.
