My moneys on my car too. Although an a circuit I'd be out of fuel after one lap and the tyres would be shot, and on the les tight circuits I'd run out of gears.
Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

Cant see the Mig having a chance tbh we got a Mig class care here and we put a new motor in straight away, the Mig is very class restricted imo when I striped the box, I had to change the gear set a the ratios where very long and the diff was quite short turbo motors don’t tend to compare to N/A especially the likes of the twins motor :lol Edited by PaulH on 27th Jun, 2008.

No Doubt Wil and bens motor would be quicker, but they are chalk and cheese.
On 27th Jun, 2008 BENROSS said:

However, these days it is much better and I would say almost a match for a mig, handling wise. http://www.twin-turbo.co.uk

Why change the rules for the migs, everyone is on an even footing and the racing is exciting. There's no point in just trying to make them faster and faster, all the the faster race cars are fairly boring to watch. Edited by Timinichelsea on 27th Jun, 2008. |

I really can't see how you can compare two very different cars....built for two different purposes. Don't mean to be a kill joy. Like comparing a Rally car with its circuit racing variant. Edited by Jason G on 27th Jun, 2008. On 19th Jan, 2010 wil_h said:

No, before that, Higgins? it was a heart attack and I think he was in his hillclimber not his Mig when it happened
I seriously doubt it! |
