In my opinion this is the best car on here, great to see it in the flesh at MITP. Cant believe the amount of work that has gone into it.

Did I see your Minisprint in this month's Mini World magazine? I don't have the copy to hand but I'm sure that there's an Island Blue Minisprint in a line of cars in it, I thought it might have been this one.
Fantastic car by the way, I would love one (it's my dream to own one, and I'm a grown man LOL) and from what I've seen in the short time I've been on this forum I'd agree with the statement above that yours is the best car on here. Thanks so much for sharing it with us

that looks like allot of pressure in those rear tyres! reduces the amount of friction/drag though im sure.

I am in love with this picture!
That picture messes up my mind! I keep wanting to mentally correct it as the sprint profile makes it look like a stretched out picture! lol

Its a combination of many things. Paul said that not one part as been left untouched, there is a lot more than you can see.

The roof skin and the coily springy thing inside the wiper mechanism are the only bits of the car that arent modified in any way
Paul
Its more a case of what hasn't been done to it to get it that light.

Hi Paul,
Would you please tell us what exhaust manifold do you use, and what is the Weber 45 jetting that you have?
Thanks,
