Thread: Surprising kill on new MINI Cooper S

Was approaching this red light in a lane next to the newer Mini Cooper S(Turbo version) had rims and was lowered a bit possibly. Guy and passenger were sitting glancing at my car and he started to creep forward a bit. So i wait cuz I know whats next...light goes green and roll a bit just easing then hear his turbo spool,he jumps, I floor it chirping the tires at 20 and im off. Instantely put a car on him and slowly walk him from there. Shut it down at about 95 with about 2-3 cars on him. I honestly thought it would be a bit closer since those cars are light and turbocharged but not on my part. They catch me at a light and passenger says " you got a smaller pulley or something?" I say nah bro just an intake and bigger downpipe thats all. He's like " damn man you hauled thought we woulda pulled on you a bit". He owned a regal GS with a 3.4 setup and we just chat for about 45sec bout L67/L32 stuff while the driver sat there clueless lol.

they are stick so he may have not know how to drive properly. but nice kill it always feels good to walk all over someone its even better when they think they are a hotshot

Yea those minis arent too bad to be honest a bit quick in the right hands. And yea passenger was cool.

From owner:

My quickest time was 14.4213

said Turbo mini was stock as well.

Yea like I said,quick in the right hands. For the most part I see them run what Gtps run bone stock.

the kid who delivers pizza from the pizza shop by me has one of these, all night i hear this kid beating the tar out of this poor car as he drives past my apt.

i so want to go and rape him. vehicularly that is.

if it was an auto there slow, if it was per 2011 its slow...the new N18 motor is insane and that came out with the LCI car in 2011 half year kinda thing...the cars are fun to drive and the only way to drive an auto S is to beat the hell out of it. The non S cant even get out of its own way so the S manual is the only way to go.

On what blue posted the JCW package is a joke and all it does is tuning and a diffident intake and exhaust, and some stuff to make it look good..but it cost 10k more and are alot more rare because they have to be special built...all tho it is a little quicker with the older cars its not 10k quicker tho...but damn can it take a corner

^Italian Job flashback i had lol.And those were the old SC ones.

that movie only had one S in it and the others were base N/A cars

Yea that sexy girl had the SC one but I think that was the best one of the 3 cars.
