Saw this mini at the recent Autosport show in Birmingham they replace the engine with one from a Suzuki GSX 1300R hayabusa making them extremly quick as you can imagine

cool!
my dad put a 7ltr mustang engine in a mini when he was younger.
it went stupidly fast, but it made it so heavy it couldnt turn
he set a record at his local race track though

You know, it's only a ballhair off it...actually that Hyabusa mini is minted, loving the old-school oute door hinges and it looks like it's been de-seamed (expensive and a pain in the arse but looks great) i would love a toy like that, gorgeous and rapid! My mini is looking worse for wear these days, this pic is a year or 2 old now, there's rust coming through the doors and one of the front spotlights has come off.
