    Thanks!

    The engine is a 1275 A+ in the orange mini the suspension on that mini was a Hydrolast. I could not find/afford a pump for it so I put an adjustable coil over on it.

    The purple mini is a 998 motor, and it does have the rubber cone suspension.

    I have not raced any of them except for the Orange one, I take it to the Goodguys car show and do the Auto cross. Just the Phoenix event. I'd love to enter it in the nationals. I have yet come across a cobra I could not beat on the short track.

    If you have ever wondered how you get your anus to clench so tight it sucks sucks your spine into an alternate dimension Youtube Hayabusa Mini Cooper. This one is not mine. but yeah it is the fastest car I have ever driven. Not for top speed but over all acceleration and cornering speed. (Youtube is blocked for me at work)

    If I had to compare it to any thing.. I would say it is like public sex. Some people look on in horror, Some cover there kids eyes, and other want to join in the fun.

    I built a pump that use a brake master cylinder and an old pedal assembly the fluid system was not much good for racing and far more problems then they were ever worth. I like your coil overs they have improved over the years we did not have that neat stuff 40 years ago.

    I've never ridden a sport bike, I'm too uncoordinated and dumpy. I've only been on like 125 cc dirt bikes in the desert were I can fall off all on my own and not kill any one.

    But I would imagine a sport bike is close to the same as the mini. However in the Mini you can push the limit with out falling off. Corning at 100 and have the car stuck to the ground feeling like if you had one more gear you could break the gravitational pull the earth has on you is some thing else.

    Id much rather ride on a Busa then a Mini with a Busa motor, 10x more dangerous but nothing beats the feeling of riding a 1340CC Motorcycle. I would never ride a first gen though as i heard they have really bad problems with Runaways. Id fucking freak out and lose it if my bike started to run away from me at high speeds.

    LOL, I can't stand sitting in the things. We have 3 of them (I think they look cool and the GF loves sitting in them).

    BTW, I love this one. The pointed top is unique/mod!
