fastest a series?
Turbo Mini Forums

just thinking whats the fastest road legal a series in the world, has anyone got pics etc, just bored cant find any in maxpower

Lol!

Check out the stats for british mini showdown.

Think Jon Haston won last year with Carl austin the year before with *i think* the fastest time.

I thought it was the bloke in jamaca 11sec quarter

Metro turbo weekend driver,Mini turbo in the making again!

is that road legal?

there's loads of classes. not sure what the fastest road legal A series is but im guessing jon has got to be up there.

heard of him before what car's he drive turbo?

yep, our very own giallofly

I thought the Haston mini was a chopped one, although could be wrong

Do you mean Jon Flanigan?

yes i do.

Think your on about ian johnson?

Im not good with names though!!!

Hastons is with tubular subby, red with a blak roof. very, very trick and a superbly put together car. (if ive got the name right!)

Yes that's the one. Doh! I'm not so good with names either

John Haston's car is A series powered but far from road legal, same kind of theme as Carls car in single engine mode. They also run alot of NOS.

Ian Johson runs the orangey roof chopped machine, now also with twin engines.

John haston is/was going to build a fibre glass shelled mini with 2 vaux xe engines.....??....uhm!he has the shell and the engines, i've seen them!

yay, i was right

so jon, are you the fastest road legal car?

(although im sure dave will say a roadcar has to have a stereo, spare wheel etc etc )

John Haston class mini, he used to enter it to concours!!

Edited by iain on 1st Mar, 2005.

i think so Iain..

(Moves off for a plce to rest his swelling head)

i think so as well. proven anyway

couldnt be bothered to click so edited your post.

btw pic courtesy of british mini club website (so we dont upset anyone)

And Mr Hastons car is superb. Something really worth seeing.

drive it like you stole it!!

thats a good wheel spin Mr....

I nearly died in there!!!

I remember!! lol!

i spent the next the next 13.797 seconds after that one choughing my lungs up!!

Weird isnt it, you were probably spaced out most of that run!!

i would say the miniwilliams would take some beating for out and out top end for a a series.

but i know its not the quickest over the 1/4 but over a mile i certainly shifts.

always looking for them bigger bunches of bannanas

Jon's is fapping quick round a track too though..

think you'd be suprised to be honest. Not saying its slow but i reckon there are a fair number of quicker cars, most being on this site.
