Force Racing ICT Dept Manager Miglia Turbo Am frum Yokshyer tha noes!

I took my cylinder head and manifolds up to Fort Benross this saturday, and i managed to twist his arm into taking me for a spin in the yellow machine. He took me down a "private road" and gave it the beans. The road was a bit greasy and as you can imagine it was torque steering a tad as we came off the round about and after a few seconds we were doing X miles an hour!!! Its easily the fastest car ive ever been in! My brother recently bought a megane 225 and i thought that was fast! Jesus H Steves mini is stupid!

I have some in car footage but im not sure Steve would be very impressed if i posted it up.

Ill wait for him to give me the all clear!

1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.

I like nice quiet girly Minis

You can never get the full sense of speed from that sort of video. All my trackday footage looks like I'd be faster walking.

Knowing what track footage looks like that car is V.quick!!!

Every day is a school day ...........

How fast and how expensive ...... the same question...

I finally got my mini running after my rebuild and after a bit of setting up on a long private road, it goes well! Feels wrong to be going that quick in a mini!

car was going that fast that he momentarily went back in time and the jpeg ends ! thats why Steve has kept his Boyish looks all these years, driving anticlockwise in a turbo mini is condusive to youthfull looks ! now go try it yourself.........
