Not a mini, but an interesting turbocharged Nova. this is in fact the car that inspired me and Ben to build ours.
Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

I remember that in CCC. Interesting use of a 1.2 sleeved down to a 1000cc bore. On 17th Nov, 2014 Tom Fenton said:

I have been to his rolling road in the Cotswolds where it is kept and it is a nice set up he has down there. The car is great though. http://www.twin-turbo.co.uk

The CR is a bit low for 1.5 bar with mappable ignition and fueling. I would have guessed a 980cc crossflow head with that boost would make more power too On 12th Nov, 2009 Paul S said:

I believe Andy Bradley's dad was killed driving a Bentley at an event or something?? That was when I believe he took over the garage full time and when he sold the car???

That's an interesting question. But as I have no information on his time I can make no comparison. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph
