Well, this my father's in law MINI VTEC. It is a pure racing car. It is used for quarter of a mile racing. It has a HONDA 1.6L, 16v VTEC Engine producing around 185bhp @ 9500rpm. It is made of carbon-fibre and it is super light, around 500Kg. If you make one to one physics, light weight equal more speed!! Here in the photo it has no grill and rear spolier, they were added later on. It got nitrious oxide (NOS) installed, but never used so far to make a run. It also got a programmable racing ECU. The height of this car is less than 4 feet!!!!

236985M's 1999 MINI Cooper This is the owner, Mr Benjamin Bonnici better known as Benny, and also the driver of all these intersting minis. He is a very good driver!!!!! on the road and on the track!!!! He is a managing director, but also a fine mechanic so he works on all the minis himself with some of his friends.
