Liam Doran - Mini Countryman Rally Car

Not sure if anyone here watches Xgames or Rally...but the British Bomber's decked out R60 was straight naaaaaauuuty this last weekend at the XGames. Dude was the fastest and should have won both events....but racing will be racing and the fastest guy doesnt always win.

Caught him on the sweet new gymkhana grid, he smoked ken block and would have smoked the next guy if he didn't rack up a few penalties for hitting a couple barrels but he definitely looked like the fastest one out there. A big multi car crash took him out of the rally final in the first lap where he was the 2 seed too but it was pretty sick to watch a CM rip it up.

Is there any place that has more details about the preparation of the Rally MINI Countryman? I would be interested to read about the drivetrain and suspension upgrades in particular.

Great video. I like the hood scoop, it should be standard.

The extractor on the hood, or the roof scoop?
