It really is extremely lively and requires a lot of concentration just to keep it road bound!. Its great when pootling around but soon as you open it up it wants to bite! It's more the gearing issues at the minute!.. with it being the Integra Type R close ratio box its far too...
Thank again.... yeah the RS is mine and it is standard!!... I rekon they are pretty equally matched upto 100, but because of the small wheels the mini runs out off puff!!.. so a better suited Final Drive is next on the shopping list!.. :-)
I took the mini for a little blast last night, it...

Ooofff - I remember when mine was in this state!...
You mention using the 16v mini subframe??... assume you are referring to the Allspeed one??..
Look forward to updates...
Bit of an update from the last few weeks.
