Thank god for broadband...
You need to watch this video... Nutter at the nurburgring in a Honda powered mini. Very close racing (and dangerous!!) at the ring http://www.ringmini.de/Videos/videos.html |
Awesome man!! he he Enjoyed watching that. Frickin looney!:D
Showed some 'larger' cars how to go on!! The bit where the white merc (i think) squeezed thru the middle! Nice! |
hehe..that was superb.....

When we were at the Ring last Easter, I actually managed to blag a ride out in that car!
He did a lap of the Ring like no other car I've ever been in, and it was the most awesome car related experience of my entire life. The car is still FWD, but the only way I can describe his driving style is similar to that of drifting. His throttle control was unbelievable, and we were sideways round every corner..... in the rain! He would approach the corner, and then set the car up on the brakes, then power the car through the corner, making minor corrections with the steering wheel, and all the real correction with the throttle. Mike Rainbird will confirm how mental the driving was, as he also got out in it that day as well. I think he will also confirm that the guy is slightly mad as well! What a mental ride :D:D:D |
I thought it looked very well set up :D What vtec engine does it have?
|
|
thats not a twin cam is it, where has the engine come from? that looks more like a 1.6 sohc honda lump
it does go like stink though, seen him in action at the ring, not for long though as we were left for dead by it |
Its the home made go-cart which is amazing. The way it power slides perfectly is just well....amazing :D :D
135kg, 110PS ! |
Cracking video :D :D
|
Any more pictures? I thought it didn't sound as revvy as the later vtec.
|
Stay away from Mini's i say ...... one did me up the pod the other week. Stopped to have a chat and the bloody thing was running around 200 BHP and then Nos as well ...... haha.
|
That Go-Kart is fantastic :D
|
Glorious stuff!
Those two E30 M3s giving it some stick was great to watch. But to watch that Mini hack it through the bends gaining on summink that does really go round corners like the M3 First time I've seen a lap of the old circuit. Confirmed my thoughts on a weekend out there in the Merc.... Might have to get myself a cheap ratter and strip n cage it and take that round there instead mind... Plan hatching already! |
I want that kart :D

Here is a picture of my brothers mini with a standard 1.6 VTEC engine producing 170BHP. Future mods involve supercharging it (bolt on kits available) if the rules allow!
