It actually looks more stable than C and F, and the engine has gotten a more potent sound to it. Maybe they have something going here

Stable? I think you mean that the suspensions stiffness makes the car look stable(not much body roll), but this also makes the wheels touch the ground less. This is why C and F has very soft suspension. But when looking at C and F than there is hardly any body roll sideways but quit some body roll longitudal. this is a efficient way to transfer weight to the wheels with more grip. Sideways roll would make the car slide alot therefore this is eliminated with swaybars and suspension setup on the C and F.Quote:

Not many sponsors for Mini yet
How does it sound on the WRC stages? Shakedown? :D
There are some differences between the official Minis and the ones from Armindo and Daniel:

Side windows and mirrors.
Dire livery for a ugly car......
But great too see another manufacturer in WRC
+1
The Mini sounds brilliant but they look awful except in Sordo's all-red livery ... :cool:
Glad to have another manufacturer in the WRC but I cant see these cars creating many sales !! :eek:
Are there any videos of the car on the shakedown? I can't find any. I think it could do quite well.
