in my opinion theres only one type of car to beat in a mini, and thats a bini, and my Bigblock is being built for this purpose..


you are kidding arent you :shock: but I suppose everybody has to have a purpose in life :roll:

:) :) That is the most absurd question I have ever been asked on this forum. My answer is no. Why should it.

A Bini is a perfectly valid choice for someone to buy. If I had bought one and I had heard some wet sock of a black mini owner had gone to all the effort to make a car go faster than mine, I would be fits of laughter probably for the rest of my life. That is just pathetic.

did i say it wasnt a valid choice for someone to buy? no i didnt.
I look forward to when i can afford a car like that..

but i said i was building my car to a spec where it (hopefully) has greater performance than the new MINI, not to specifically beat someone.

there are people out there building their mini with toyota starlet engines in them, are they also pathetic?

whats pathetic is your obsession with teasing and provoking someone half your age over the internet to get your laughs, thats whats pathetic.

Your previous post indicated you were building a clubman with the specific purpose of being able to outdrag a Bini.

That is not the impression that your other posts gave me.

They are not here and stating your opinions. If I have issue with what they say, I will have no reservation is commenting on them as well.

Your and my age have no bearing on my comments. Those that may not have all the information or knowlegde to judge your comments may suffer the consequences of your brashness.

If you wish to continue to discuss our relationship, my pm and email would welcome the discussion.

What really is pathetic is the lack of apostrophes, full stops and capital letters. If we're going to have a decent argument, let's make it readable. :cry:

DOZ, I looked at your video....Holy crap!

You made the WRX (in comparison of your pass speed to his/hers) look like a 'family car' :P .

Thanks, you can appreciate why I love the no-speed limit days at Wakefield. :lol: I don't tell anyone it's turbo'd and geez do they look p^%$#ed after the sessions.

Thats what the Mini is about, giving to the bigshots in their ricers and V8's. Hell I can take my series 5 RX7 to wakefield and do a 5 sec quicker lap than in the Mini, but no-one cares when I pass them in that.

My 1330 will beat my V6 Crappadore..... Ive chopped Falcons pretty easy as well. My Crappadores even got all the wank factor sh*t on it, extractors/exhaust/airfilter....

I didnt think it was that hard to do, they are a slow car plus they weigh 1500kg.
