So I'm seriously thinking about selling my Golf TDI for a new Mini. Anybody
have one yet or have one on order? Anybody seen any come out to play at an
Autocross yet? Any guesses on weather the NA or S version will be more
competitive in their respective classes?
For reference, the normally aspirated Mini has a 115HP/110ft-lb motor and
weighs 2500lbs, and according to MiniUSA does a 0-60 in 8.5 seconds. The S
is 163HP/155ft-lbs and 2700lbs, and goes to 60 in 6.9 seconds. They both
have the same wheel options available (17x7 being the largest), same sport
suspension and seat options, but the S has a 6-speed. The S is in D-Stock,
the NA is in H-Stock.
