Hey awesome car! I thought of something the other day...the engine is front mounted and i'm assuming its mounted east-west. Since the bike is rear wheel drive how have you made it so drive can be delivered to the wheels? is it FWD or RWD? I'm planning to get a clubman as my next mini and try and make some sort of AWD system for one of these...if I can ever work it out haha :P
@joeholtby the brakes were smoking a bit, could just be the pads getting first use as the EBC green's can be like that when new. The geometry needs sorting, once that's sussed she should handle pretty well.
nice mini but how do you get drive to the wheels? plaese reply thanks in advance

Cool! Would have been nice with some commentary of the driver afterwards, sharing his experience.
