SS S/C STG 2 VS Mini Cooper S GP

ok so here the deal. im postin this for sensesfail99
so heres the story.
we all on fridays meet up at a local krispy kreame where a bunch of car people meet up.
so theres a couple of us cobalt guys...and my aveo...and we talk and then go inside and then we come on and tony (sensesfail99) asks if we wanna cruise in his car since he just got stage 2 in it....so me my girlfriend and JJ ( Master Chief) get in his car and were cruisin on the freeway havin some fun...and then we get off and go to head back to the krispy kreame. on the way back a cooper S GP flys by us and we both get stopped at a red light. he revs his engine and tony revs back...we take off off the line and tonys clutch slipped so we slowed back down to about 30 or so and then he punched it...he pulled at first and then we stayed about even then he shifted into 3rd and started to pull again but then we started to slowly pull on him and then we pulled pretty hard on him....we did that a couple times. we slowed down and told him about the krispy kreame so we went back there and chatted for a little bit.
those cooper s gp's are pretty sweet ride.
his S/C was screamin just as loud as tonys stage 2 was.

yup so theres the story lol hope you enjoyed :P

There'll be just 2000 of these worldwide (415 in the United States), and they're all presold. Each has the same unique color scheme, red mirrors and all. -motor trend
and i raced one, WOO and i think were going to do it again next week with just me in the ride!

i think the out come will be a bit different i think your gonna walk him pretty easy....

and where the info on the 07 turbo?? i only read about the GP Supercharged one.

i just looked it up....and a stock GP runs 14.5....so we can take them stock if the drivers good.....so stage 2 you should walk him pretty good.

they're making a turbo mini too? i've sat in one, never driven one or raced against one. they're like little race cars inside though.
