Saw this run the weekend, it has had a massive amount of cash thrown at it, and is nicely engineered, but its not really a mini anymore.

Did shift though!

The only way to do that and still therotecaly be able to call it a rover mini would be to sling in a 6R4 engine *evil*

In the other clip it lights ups its tyres on the straight behind what looks like a clio cup. No doubt oil on the track.

But I bet a little bit of poo came out.

Why not? RWD cars can handle very well short wheel base or long wheel base.

If he's gone to all that effort of space framing it, RWD would be perfect.
