I like the way he pulls his woolly hat down over his ears whilst she puts her crash helmet on

Thought it had probably been posted already?

Cool vid!

Was very fortunate when I was there to get a passenger lap in the Ringmini - probably one of the best car experiences of my life!

Had a proper seat in it at the time.

Basically Mike R went out for a lap after promising him god knows what in return, and as we were milling around the pits, Mike came out of the car grinning like a goon, and telling me I HAD to go out for a spin.

Bit of blaggage and I hopped in. Such a strange car to be in, but he can properly drive! About half way round, it started to rain, and through one corner, we got properly sideways, and ended up having an off, and smashing sideways into the barrier. Quickly pulled up at a convenient place, jumped out, checked that the only major damage was the wing mirror and carried on!

Before that point though, he was giving it 150%. Every corner was sort of drifted - like too much speed carried in to the corner, and scrubbed off sideways, with the car then dragged out the corner with the power. Was very very cool!

Awesome Rich, I've seen the clip on youtube and he certainly isn't frightened of it !

More sideways than most people in rwd cars

I'll try my blagging skills out when I go there in September if he is about

At the beginning they say it is 36 years old, the blue mini,1.8, 197 PS and weighs 780KG, and that SABINE's mini is over 300KG more, that hers is regular street set up and his is one off for the circuit.
Straight away she says how he has much better brakes.

she doesn't actually say that his mini has better brakes as such, just that because it weighs less it can brake later

780kg for a mini, surely that can't be right?

I was expecting the mini to pull ALOT more at the start as well considering the 0-60's ive seen quoted for some vtec minis.
