Don't smoke and drive!

Seriously, this is well over 1 year old, if I remember correctly.
I vaguely seem to remember an electrical issue?

This vehicle might have been transformed into one of the MINI's that Nuzzo Racing is racing this year. I remember Nuzzo telling me that one of the cars they got after an engine fire. . . .

If so, it is alive and kicking and racing on the track in the Grand AM Cup
