Congradulations, add multispoke wheels and lose the chrome trim for starters.

Thanks that be great! It's a great idea that oyu can personalize it on so many ways with all the add-ons.

beaner: thank you! I've read a lot about you and your mini on the track, you're a very good driver and that mini goes like nothing! what are your mods on it?

i just documented my mods on another thread: https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...d.php?t=107432

my recommendation is to work on driver skills first, handling second, braking third......then consider mods to increase hp.....

the MINI can be a fairly potent track weapon given a well prepped driver and car. three of my buddies are currently finishing a track weekend at daytona. i'll post some of their vids when i have them. this will include randy probst driving one friend's MINI!

Excellent color choice! Looks great and for a first car you are REALLY lucky! If you need any help or advice with add-ons just send me a quick PM! There are some REALLY good mods available for the R56 MINI. My last R56 I had was over 220 WHP and 260 W TRQ!

Enjoy the car!
