Thanks Mako - brilliant as usual. As a region, we are so lucky to have you

[Pete Loney]

half AX, half RX

Cool angle, you can see both of us in the side mirrors.

I take credit for being the ballast that kept us from spinning out. He caught the edge of the marbles....

[Mako Koiwai]

Max DID spin out at the same spot on another lap ... perhaps no passenger. From that sequence, you can see that Max was way late getting ANY LOCK on!

[Kurt Rahn]

Tom going all Electric on us ... always a step ahead. What was it like driving the eMini? Seemed to have surprisingly strong acceleration. Sure was easy to hear the tires squeal!

WOW! It obviously wasn't fitted with the sport suspension option. Look at that body roll! On the other hand, all four tires are on the ground, which isn't always true of mine, according to Mako's pix.

[Mako Koiwai]

Is that eCar full of batteries? It certainly scooted nicely

So, is Mini E a GS car or HS?

[Doug Teulie]

I don't think it counts for any SCCA class as an E.

[Kristoffer Gjevre]

So, is Mini E a GS car or HS?

I don't think it counts for any SCCA class as an E.

That be my guess too as it is a limited production vehicle with all kinds of special restrictions to be selected to lease it...
