Well, today is the second day of the Car and Driver Superfour Challenge. Yesterday all of the editors took our Mini out for a spin (as well as every other car) to test drivability and comfort. A+ on that, they all loved the MINI. Today is the "Track" portion of the event. Every car goes through the track at Michigan International 5 times, in an attempt to get the best run. It will be a long day, on our end for sure. George is the only one there so of course we're stuck at the shop waiting for updates. Figures

Cosworth - AEM - HKS - Greddy - Comptech - Flyin Miata - Hondata - Moss - Vishnu - Hasport - Skunk2 and more.
I do believe they called our car a flying brick... We'll show them a flying brick!

Cross your fingers for us, I'll let you know how it turns out by the end of the day and within the next few days I'll post a detailed vendor announcement with pictures and the like.

 

COOOOL !!!!!

Do you know what issue they will be featuring the story with the results in ?

They'll be suprised when that "flying brick" hits the road course !

 

Last time they invited us was in 2003 I believe, and we did indeed get the best road course time! We placed 3rd overall, with best braking distance as well. We lacked in the 100-130 mph time. Took us quite a while... don't think we'll have that problem anymore

I do believe they said it will take about 3 months before the article hits the stands.
