Perfect match-up with Group 4 and RMW. So, what aero bits were you/Ian testing?

 

Splitter, diffuser and whicker bill for now

 

So Jan, you're saying that functional aero bits for the MINI are in development? This is great news.

What kind of numbers are you going to provide to show that the parts really work (not doubting, just asking)?

 

Congrats on breaking the record! I loved how the driver was right on the butt of that Vette.

 

When are you taking orders for that "intake sock"? That sock must emit some gasses with pretty high combustibility.

 

Sigh........... Being stuck in the midwest so far from all that tasty goodness really sucks.

Joining RMW and Ian in this adventure is amazing . Being able to put RMW's power to the ground along with Ian's driving ability really did the job . BTW the aero package Wayne put on is our street version .

Well, the street version seems to be doing it's job, that car was glued down to the track.

 

GOOD GRIEF....that looks incredibly fast!

 

 

 

Twin screws?? Is this why you blew us off in the GREATER North West or is it you just don't like the rain? Can I post pictures?????????

While hanging out with the guys of Group 4 at the Dragon, I got to see all of their aero stuff close up, learn of it's development, and hear the race history of the members. I wondered in my head what a highly worked on MINI could really do with all of this stuff. Quite a bit it would seem. If I lived somewhere with twisties I'd be all over their stuff, my time in the Fontana region made that clear.

 

from what I have seen its true
how does 10 more mph through turn 1 grab you?


it's known to have magic properties

U-HAUL

Must have RACE version.............

race version costs same number of points



I KNOW NOTHING........................

STOP HELPING ENABLE HIM...........

 

So 10mph increase due only to aero change?

The brick is getting faster!

 

not in the straight away..............IN THE CORNER!!!!!!!!!!!!

we had way more grip in the corner from the down force even though we are required to run HARDER tires this year................

 

so how about some specs on the m62 retrofit ive been hearing wispers about? electric water pump?

 

The M62 is NOT a wise selection for an 'upgrade'.

 

Why is it not a "wise" upgrade? More boost, lower rotor speed, less heat, almost dimensionally exact cases... If water pump is electric and blower properly fitted and pullied, please explain your stance.

 

I was at the Dragon, too. The G4 stuff looked really cool. Was one really smooth looking MINI they had on display.

 

Glad to see more development. So when do you plan on coming to FL. again for tuning. I'm itching for a rmw tune.

 

sweet.......... any aero advantage we can get will result in faster lap times We are just as excited as you guys as we re-write the record books

was just there .........won't be too long before I'm back for secret testing

this blower takes 20hp less to turn than M62 at same boost level ie: 13psi and 120deg cooler inlet temp. Electric waterpump produced 176deg F temps on a 100deg day with track temps @ 120-130 .......did I mention stock radiator?

it's sweet isn't it?
the R56s look like it came from the factory as it's easy with the exhaust system
