That's why the Mini's perennial 'other' name is Giant Killer.

JM,


with the things you have done to your car... it will be a pretty close race.
it is up to the driver...
by my house in miami there is a dude that has a blue SI 1999 which is the same as a 2000. and we have raced a few times... i mean i have a few more things than u and he has according to him and his dyno pic 215 whp... turbo

the last time we raced he got my out the hole by about half a car... (i cant lunch for ****) and he kept the distance till about 75 aftern that i started catching up on him and about 100 i started pulling away... by 110 i had about a car and a half.
then he decided that he would stop... and didnt wanna race me again...

i think the mini has far better grears than the SI when it comes to a roll... out the hole well it all about the driver...
now he also has a 2003 SI with a turbo this one with 243 whp and with that he kicks my ***

so with what u got if you are a better driver u can take him

Carlos

Well thanks for all your replies, I appreciate them... Didn't get to the track this weekend because of that horrid thing called RAIN ... Anyways I also forgot to mention I have MTH ... and I soon might be adding the APEXi S-AFC for some extra punch .... I have a 03' and I wish I had a 05' from all that I have been hearing...
Thanks again,

Jm
