Since you race Minis, how slow do they seem when there are 5 or 6 of you door-to-door-nose-to-tail lap after lap? They don't seem slow, they seem fast....it is all about the racing experience.

Most on here will scoff at you and ignore my comments as BS, but you and I know different.
I dabble with minis but seem to enjoy the adjust ability of sedan.

Actually once I went Vegas on my Tekin, my efforts went into finding a setup that worked for speeds that 12 years ago would have been modified. Plus as a driver still getting used to the power. Usually it is rare for me to break or DNF a race. I like going fast but don't like what mod speeds mean as far as money and maintenance. So far these faster stock speeds are not that demanding on my cars.
