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

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....

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!

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.

Is that eCar full of batteries? It certainly scooted nicely

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...
