I don't buy into the fact that MINI clutches are a weak point....my clutch (OEM MINI) has over 130k on it....probably close to a hundred 1/4mi...
It's no harder on a MINI than it is on any other car. For me, it's fun to make a couple passes here and there. It puts a smile on my face, who...
I've had my R53 down the 1/4 mile more than a few times (personal best 13.8 @100). I enjoy an evening at the drag strip from time to time. I...

Very true, I guess if someone was super determined it could possibly be done on the car, but for something this critical you really want to have...
What's the holdup? :thumbsup:
