Re: Talk about a nimble car
yea well thats what the title says. May or may not be. I've heard of companies turboing those old minis. Hell we had a guy in the shop that wanted to have it done to his. Looked just like that one just green. We were gona throw a single 9b on it lol.
Re: Talk about a nimble car
Well it looked to me, it likely had a sportbike engine in it, not sure but the way it could do what it did- and I know people have done that a bit into minis.

Heh, ppl are throwing v8's into them. A motorbike engine should be no prob 

Re: Talk about a nimble car
Watched it again, I don't know about sportbike engine now, at least its not a large turbo'd bike motor, but a sweet mini.
(you know how the hayabusa engine'd smart car does, and not even turbo, when the power comes its breaking wheels loose like crazy not like that mini performing those controlled tight maneuvers. )
