When are we gonna get the crowed together for a reunion?
did you break the speed limit?
Yes, and if you want to talk shit, I know for a fact tC is more of a pussy car than my N/A Cooper.
So how about you bring your Toyota wannabe to Rome and we'll make a run through the mountainous area. :goodjob:
Or anyone else :lmfao: for real though we have some nice roads around here.

But what happens when you get your ass handed to you at the track, and in the mountains, and still have to drive a mini at the end of the day?

Is your car an S?
edit: just read you said N/A
it moves out pretty ok for a non S. The other guy had to miss a shift or just give up. No way those mod's net that kind of a difference.

They kind of do. When I put the short shifter in it started to chirp shifting to third.

Ive had my ass handed to me plenty of times, packed mexican preludes have walked me, plain stock cars leave me..

Im just saying you are only about 15-20 hp over the guy your racing. You left him like you had a 100hp advantage. Short shifter will improve your time a bit I'll give you that, no HP gain though. Not knocking you at all, the car sounds and moves nicely in the vid. i'd just like to see you run someone whose gonna run you right. That guy you were running needs to learn to race or something....or maybe he's narcoleptic
*chirp chirp chirp 1ssstttt...2nddddd zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz*
Alright I'll post more races then.

Can yours break the speed limit too? I haven't run across a quick n/a tC yet. I'm starting to believe that it's an oxymoron :yes:
To the OP, the way your car sounds remind me of a gen1 Neon with intake and exhaust, which I thought sounded pretty good when you have the right exhaust.
BTW, a short shifter won't make the car any faster or chirp 3rd gear. Chirping 3rd gear in a vehicle with not alot of tq usually means A. your tires are worn or B. your alignment is out. I'm just saying.....

Chrysler and BMW built my engine :D . And how would it not? Quicker shift means a less drop in RPMs, less drop is higher RPMs, Higher RPMs are where the powers at. Makes sense :thinking:

Well yes, a faster shift will keep you in the sweet spot better, but it's not going to improve the times exponentially. A few tent's perhaps. Im sure it feels better than the boat oar throws of the stocker.

Ok so first off, its a "Cooper" not " Copper"
Secondly, a cooper S vs. non S wouldn't be that big of a difference...
Lastly, I would like to hear the other mini drivers thoughts about the race. Im sure he wouldn't say he wasnt trying...at all.
If you really think your car is such a badass along with your driving skills, instead of running people in the mountains, come run the NASA event in december at Road Atlanta. That gives you enough time to get tires and brakes since you couldn't afford a cooper S. :lmfao:

They were both N/A non S Coopers.
But, my car nerd side must say that the S vs. non S is a full second difference in the 07 Coopers, and almost two seconds from 0-60 and 1/4 for the new Turbo vs. N/A cooper. Thats pretty huge

Idk what youre talking about the copper thing.
A cooper S would walk me like I walked that one.
And that "lastly" part didnt make sense either.
Never flaunted my car or my driving skills.
Bottom line, we ran twice, he launched well both times, same outcome both times. Thats why we ran twice.
Nvm just shut up, you dont know what youre talking about.

Hey it sounds good at least :D So what was up with that run? Your trap speed would indicate you should have had a better 1/4 time. Poor traction? Or....are we playing shenanagins here....cause I can pull out a 15 or 16 second time slip of mine Im sure...that time my IC pipe blew off after the 1/8 hehehe

Engine dampers give you 100hp!

Smartass. The shortshift and engine damper dont increase horsepower obviously, BUT it does transfer the power much more efficiently :yes:
