driving home on a sunday morning when my turn is coming up, but i see a mini cooper s in front of me, now i have two chioces; turn right and go home and make it to work on time, or go straight to try and race the cooper then being forced to drive the long way home through a five mile windy road to eventully be late to work. Of coarse i chose the possible race with the windy roads after. first light i went and he did not, next light he went and i did not, at the third light the guys says," now we both have to go this time, those things rev pretty high don't they?" the light turns green, i launch at 4000, his tires screach and by the end of second i am about 4 cars lenghts ahead, by now i am way off track but take the windy road home and make it to work five minutes late, what a great way to start off a sunday.

 

cool!! i wont mind driving one of them minis!...they are super cute, cant help but smile everytime you see one

 

in uk a stock one its 60 in 7.4/5 and with a john xcooper works kit in about 6.9 so anyhow iyt shouldnt hve been hard to pass it.

 

i like the cooper S, but once i remember that it is FWD
i just stop looking at it...

also, i raced with blue one, just after the lunch, i was in front of him and i shift to 2nd in front of him !
after this, i dont like it.

 

They are slow stock. Heck I have yet to see a U.S. spec S with anything of a go go.

 

Well they are cute, lol

 

Minimania actually sells a kit that puts out 250hp. Motortrend tested the car and recorded over 70mph on the slalom. Yea it's a FWD, but so is Integra Type R, so it can be sporty and fun.

I plan on getting one in a year or two and slap on the Minimania stage III kit on it.
