The driver of that car in the video was in advanced group however he wasnt the best of drivers because I saw him braking way early and pussy footing a bit. The MINI is still an awesome platform and with the new chassis we are developing parts to see how far we can go without just throwing money at it.
Yep. Again, its mostly about the driver. A great driver in an S2000 will smoke a bad driver in a GT3 on a track. With equal drivers, a Z06 and GT-R should have no problems at all with a 300whp Mini on a track. Too much advantage in the straights and they can corner pretty damn well too, again, with a good driver. A 500+whp STi would be a problem though.
