LOL...we were just watching that video at work last week. One of our guys just got a mini and was joking about being able to do the stoppie after he puts a BBK on it.

The stoppie made that clip, but this guys entire run is un freakin' believable!

Oh, and it isn't autocross, it's Gymkana.

FYI, Autocross, Gymkana(spelled more than one way), slolom, etc, are pretty much interchangable terms, as is Solo II now as well.

I don't mean to be dumb here, but are the old minis FWD or RWD?

FWD, they were the first high performance FWD cars for the masses. Tough they did not have alot of power they had incredibly handling and were peppy for thier time.

If you do a bit of history you can even find them winning the Monty Carlo Rally, among other great feats against the hot dog cars of the day

A) Autocross=Solo2

B)Gymkana=Slalom

A?B

What's interchangeable about these sports? That's like saying F1 is synonomous with ALMS or WRC with Outlaws.
