Straight away she says how he has much better brakes.

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.
Found a cool site that answered my question about how many RingMinis they've been.

Some older mini's weighed 660kg from the factory so its possible

Testing the future
he's probably got more weight from the suspension, bigger brakes, roll cage etc 
it's a cool car, but he still looks such a noddy with that stupid flat steering wheel driving position that minis have. it must be like driving a small bus
