Brings me back to my days at RAF Bentwaters in the 80’s, I had a 1275 then, put some coin and blood into it, it was wicked fast, I kiss that car every time I see these turn key sports cars now, racing over there was based on passion and innovation, not just programming, lol! Thanks for the smashing videos, and keep up the great work!!! 👍👍👍
Nick Swift, genius engine builder, accomplished driver , probably the happiest most polite experienced racer there is today but still has no idea where the brake pedal is Lol . 😁
@@SwiftuneEngineering Awesome driving. I love the way the mini’s slide through bends. I drive a ‘96 spi cooper blue star myself, but not (yet) the way you do.
Eccezionale veramente, auto preparata in maniera straordinaria, desidererei sapere la cilindrata del motore, se utilizza alimentazione a 4 condotti carburatori Webber da 45 mm o iniezione e quanti cavalli ha alle ruote, grazie e complimenti 👍

You know where we are when you're ready. Until then, keep enjoying your Mini.

Now that looks seriously fun. It would be cool to see a video technical tour of the car as well.
We'll keep this in mind. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Wow what a drive!, Nick is a nice guy who just lives and loves minis, far better than being a nut and bolt correct anorak 👍 inspirational well done!.
Can you tell we were having fun!
Mega.....my mini made just over 90hp in 1989 and that was pretty quick then but 150hp must be epic👌🏽😎
Nick is an amazing driver! the car handling and engine are so good and powerfull, whats the spec of this engine, displacement, camshaft etc?
We'll pass on the high praise. With regards to spec, watch this space.
Bloody Hell that's epic
Nick drove it like he'd stole it 😆 good job it's got a lsd
Fantastic 👍
Thank you 👍
What was the time?
That was insane!
Officially it was 56.62 and we're happy with that but there's always room for improvement.

That's QUICK for that power number
That's what we do.
