    Pretty sure the Ring bites the MINI. High speed with low ability is not a good thing. :nonod:

    The reason I went "WooHoo!" after I hit the tire wall... because I knew I HADN'T done THAT. :)

    Ouch.

    Pretty sure that is a R56 in the video, or MINI figured out how to get the R56 front bumper on the F56.
