Kimini: carbon-fiber, tube-frame, mid-engine, 200hp, 1500lbs.

Just started road tests so I've only a vague idea of it's performance, but it's huge.

Why did you decide to put a replica mini shell on the race car? I bet a mk1 golf would look good too.

It was actually the other way round, I started with the shell and built from there. An old Mini also makes registering the car here in California much simpler.

It's not a Mini in any sense, but I'd give my right arm to have a proper blast in that - I'll bet its huge fun to drive.
