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

^^No.

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?
 
im gonna race him, or atleast i want to, but weathers still crap:P. i wanna get it on tape too.
i will tell u guys about it if i race him. its just i wanna hear input from u guys cause im not familar with mini's and theres not much to research.
 
as stated above go do it and you will find out. i would venture to say that most of us havent race a mini type s...so go doit
 


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.
 


A chip? I had a "chip" on my Probe, It supposedly gained 35hp. I didnt feel any of those horses.
