Prodrive Mini WRC

aaaah this is the s2000 car....hmmmmm ok ignore my comment then....

I just hope that at least one of these cars finnishes the event. By the way, why have they allowed the car to enter at all as it has a turbo??? why are they allowed tubros at all.

Of course the driver is an important factor and armindo is pretty average for WRC standards...but we will see.

Very nice on board camera though....you can even see the feet of the drivers hope they use it for their official cars as well.

Ooh!!! You worked out that the Citroen (a team that habitually introduce extremely quick cars and have a history of being top dog) would be quicker than the Ford (a slightly underfunded team that is effectively a private entry) AND that the 1.6l turbo cars would be slower than the 2l turbos. What's your next amazing prediction? That next year will begin with a 2?

well if you see all the negative comments and abuse i got when i made those assumptions then you would understand why i feel that way....but ok i am used to be right most of the time so negative comments do not bother me anymore....maybe.

You know, The World is moving fast forward, so, it is time for you to do the same (to move to the next level). So, I expect you to estimate Mini´s approximate timeloss/gain to the Ford and Citroen per/km in Portugal. You are allowed to use all video footage available in the internet. :-P
