xA vs. Mini Cooper
Well, I don't or can't autocross... but yesterday I went into some super twisty roads - drooling heavily - gaaaaa....
Wow - it was great! At one point I was in 3rd gear and suprising how well it does - in the downhill version. Uphill of course I had to be in 2nd. There's not much need to shift actually but I try to shift up to 3rd and down to 2nd when possible - I still can't hit 3 pedals.
These are some excessively twisted roads - some call it a very 'technical' course. Anyhoo, I find I can drive twice as fast as many cars - I'm talking about driving safely - not a problem.
I wasn't really pushing it - what you would call normal 'spirited' driving, and getting the tires to talk - did I say this was a very twisted road? Mooooyeh...
Hee hee :D
