Re: mx-3 1.8 v6 VS. mini cooper (base)
STOP ALREADY<P>Both of you shut up, I've seen my friend rip up his mini and they can go pretty well. Saying that both a new Mini and a stock MX-3 GS have drivers of equal skill then I can see the MX-3 winning by a car length or so.<P>NVRSRNDR: Don't ever post something here if you know that the person gave up after first gear. You were inviting this arguement and you made everyone who took the time to read this very annoyed with you. One more thing, don't ever go on preaching about suspension putting all the HP to the wheels because, once again, if you don't know then don't BS.<P>CJTHOR: You obviously know a good deal about the Mini and have a handy dandy dictionary nearby. From now on I'll think of you and call your Mini-man or some other stupid name using the word Mini. If you feel NVRSRNDR is wrong then stop dragging this through the dirt by trying to prove it.<P>It seems like both of you can come up with some nifty information, but since neither of you really listen to the other person then its all moot.<P>So, both of you, just be quiet and go sit in seperate corners for 15 minutes. No speaking. No making faces. Just sit and think about what you've done.<p>[ October 16, 2002: Message edited by: Custommx3 ]

Well Dave Coleman ran a 16.05 with his coolant hose bypassed, phenolic spacers on the intake, no seats other than drivers. Figure all that stuff off and he would proly get a 16.8 or so....and he has both arms

Re: mx-3 1.8 v6 VS. mini cooper (base)
i'm surprised this post is even still open. We've got illegal street racing (obviously if the guy gave up
), bashing, and pointless bickering. To top it off, its about a Mini and a GS with a "professional" suspension. Whatta comical world we live in.
