R50/53 What car do you respect when you see it?
It's not taking stuff literally...it's a legality issue for the owners of this site. I think that those people who really like posting here just don't want to see it go away because of someone who feels he needs to equate #%@^ size with speedometer reading.
And more importantly don't want to see someone hurt from trying such stunts.
Yep, and SJCO Sheriff's who also do highway duty.
A non-cop car I would show respect to would have NOTHING to do with it's performance. I would respect any well maintained or restored classic or antique.
Don't give a whit about anything else except maybe other Mini's and absolutely any MG.

My fonts must be messed up, it displays some garbage in the middle of your post.
I can't beleive there are people taking personal jabs when this was for fun, and those people are the same ones who have done or thought the things typed they just are so much better than others.
I dont get it ?

Hey Chows I know a MINI driver who tail a vette for an entire session at the Sebring, when asked why he wouldn't let the MINI pass the driver made acooment along the lines of "I won't let a little car pass me" he was promptly warned if he had such behavior again he wouldn't be allowed on the track again.
All in the driver.

Um, bring her to Tuesday night ice cream, please.

The R90's are sold, I had to pay for the OZ's somehow. I agree it is the driver that makes the difference but having a car that 0-60 in 4.3 is tough to beat even if grandma drives it.
Absolutely. Its funny because you see this thing all the time. IT doesn't matter what the car is ... they get a car and think that they can beat ... whatever on a DE of trackday not even realizing that the other person might just be tired or just not a good driver.
It happens at all levels. I can point you to a thread where someone boasted there was no need to buy a GT3 because he passed them in his CS in the last group of a DE. He was ripped to shreds for that because he simply didn't understand its all in the driver and DEs mean nothing.

I don't believe I'm reading this.:impatient
Did you read "Posts relating to street racing ... are prohibited"?
If you want to race take it to a track like many MINI owners do but its probably not a real good idea to discuss any kind of street racing here ... hypothetical or not.

Use a little common sense for cries sake.
What happened to the civil conversation this settled down to?
Can't you boys play nice?
I think we can all agree that if we don't want this to get locked then we need to stay within the guidelines, right?
