Need to see pics of Chili Red MINIs

Okay guys, who's got a Chili Red Mini S? Especially looking to see some with red roofs. I just ordered a red on red version figuring I could do more with the paint scheme than the standard Bonnet stripes and mis-colored top. I'm hoping to get some full Dark Silver racing stripes (subtle, not too bold) from Mighty Stripes when the car arrives in January.

So let's see the pics. There's too many darn forums in this place to go searching. I can't find crap. :smile:

Randy, what wheels are those? What size? I really like the subtle look of them. Not too flashy, yet a nice upgrade.

Not great pics, but here's EVL MINI in all it's Viper Striped glory and another PRE-viper stripes shot on the corkscrew at Laguna Seca Raceway.
Cheers,
Skottoman

Yep, they are the Kosei K1. I really like them too! They are a 17x7.5" with a 45mm offset.


I'd take El Diablito on the track, if he'd want to go! I am certain his car is faster in a straight line though - no doubt about it.

This '05 MCS belongs to another NAM user, DoubleNick. I just took pics of his car and its chrome accessories last weekend.

HEre is a link to my gallery with my 05 CR/B MCS. If you haven't ordered it I recomend the red tartan cloth with black leather as well as the anthracite headliner. It really makes for a sharp combination

It is a prototype unit, and we will have the finished unit up and ready pretty soon. It drops the intercooler temps by about 10 degrees at 75MPH, but I'm not sure what the drag increase is.


You can see in those pics the pass on the 911 - about an hour later the other shot was taken. If you look real close, you can see the car back in another part of the track .

The camber is nice - it makes a pretty significant difference. It's more for track cars though, as you are giving up the tread wear on the highway if you run a lot of negative camber in the front.

Thanks! We sure had a blast at the enduro!

Randy
