    Who's interested in doing a Studio 397 Mini Cooper Series?


    Tomorrow August 08 the DLC Austin Mini Cooper S MkI Group 2 from Studio 397 will be available.

    I think we will have some great racing with this car.
    The plan is:

    6 events bi-weekly
    First event: Wednesday, September 14
    Qual: 20:00 = 10 min
    Race: 20:15 = 45 min

    Give this post a like if you will sign up.

    First you have to buy it to see if you can. And then you're already halfway :p

    I bought it and to be honest its pretty crap,considering the mini is renowned for its legendary roadholding. Put this into a corner a bit quick and it floats in like a plate of jelly on ice. Certainly doesn't feel like any mini I've driven.

    Oh, that's not my experience at all. Maybe you chose a low grip or a green track?
    After the tires warm up, it feels pretty grippy to me. It's actually good fun to drive and I'm not sorry at all for buying it.
    I tested on Kicevo and had pretty good cornering grip. Try that track.

    Since I'm so happy with the car, I made a video with the little rascal.

    I tried the mini on the Silverstone National circuit and with a bit of tweeking to the FB got it going quite well. Definitely up for a series
