    So i have a guy with a newer 2008 Mini cooper type S thats beefin and i just said how much i hate the little boxes and he said he would walk me anyday against my GTP.
    anyone know how fast these little things are. i know there pretty fast but could it "walk" me? i dont think so...
    i know there light and its turbod so..

    I got a 3.4" Pulley etc.
    gonna dyno the car soon to see what im actually at for HP.

    2002 Grand Prix GTP vs 2008 Mini Cooper Type S

    UPDATE: he apparently has a chip, and intake, running 18psi making supposedly 200whp, 240wtrq.
    and the car weighs 2680lbs dry


    any thoughts?

    I think that Ludacris would have his crew lift the bridge and you would stop, and he would jump the gap and win.

    These threads are epicly redundant.

    Just go race the guy and tell us what happened afterwards...where did the fun in racing go these past few years?

    I almost snaped on my own neck reading this thread. Race it, Find out, report back your findings, and more importantly. Do it safe. Ive ran the S/c ones and I walked them pretty easy. Never ran any turbo ones. Not sure what years they switched over

    You'll win unless Matt Damon is driving the mini. And if he is driving the mini, you got bigger things to worry about then losing a race. Because he is about to kill you with a toaster.
