Default Mini Clubman vs Go Kart - on a go kart track!

This video is awesome:

http://www.webridestv.com/showvideo.aspx?video=108395

I don't know if I'd go for the Clubman version, but the Minis are sweet. They race one against a 9hp go kart, on a go kart track. The host drives the go kart and Craig Stanton drives the Mini. I'd like to point out that Craig is also one of the drivers of the Koni Challenge tC!

You can watch for yourself to see who wins...

that was the dumbest video eevvvvveeeeerrrrrrrr!

there is so much BS comming out of it i dont know where to start....first off, there is no possible way an electric, gas, shifter kart would ever lose to a regular car in handeling....especially a mini. If youve ever been to dromo 1, you would know that a lil briggs & stratton aint **** when it comes to the power to weight ratio...and most of the karts they have at dromo 1, pole position,K1 and such dont even have the proper tires for the slick cement track they offer...

total bs

kart>any car all day everyday

Well its also BS because the Clubman couldn't do the corners properly since the guy was in a go-kart and they most likely didn't want to hurt the guy. Should've had them run it solo and compared the times.

Oh well. Entertaining video for sure though

Remove your head from your anus and actually watch the video for what it really is.
