SpiderX,
My offer still stands...you are more then welcome to take my mini for a drive. I think that will give you a better idea of the capabilities then a dyno will. Since cells don't work there leave word for me with the folks at Detroit Tuned. We'll meet up. 1st round, after we drive, is on me.

Ok so lets see I go to a dragstrip and run a 13.09 @ 104 you probably would go and run a 13.7 @ 101 whose going to go around the Canyon quicker
I think its sad that you live where drag racing was born and you dont know the difference between a dragster and a Mini, I personally wouldn't want to go round canyons in a dragster either.

. I can't launch my car for beans. I enjoy cutting through canyons with the windows down and a good song playing over stoplight racing and drag strips, but to each his own. I doubt there would be much of a difference in times if we were to actually time a run through the canyons, but i'm not concerned with street racing, just having fun and enjoying my car

The car feels pretty much the same, maybe even slightly faster. The only real difference is the redline. I'll post more info when I get it, no numbers yet, sorry.

. Most of my friends/family already think i'm crazy for the amount of money i've spent on this car. And they don't even have an actual figure, they're just guessing! If they only knew

Anybody see this?
Lucky Dog Dyno Challenge at the Dragon

Looks like the question of who's going to pay for comparison runs is moot...
Very cool!

I'm getting a basic flash from Jan down at the Dragon then we'll tune it on the same dyno where I've had delta measurements from prior for apple/apple comparison...

Let's just say the shell is in the air and it looks like it's going to hit home...
Mr DT himself, Chad...in fact, he's bringing his whole garage down to the Dragon just to service me...
Wish you could be there...
