| Even with stock turbos, the ride can get scary and outta hand quick. So I freakin drive the car like a granny. No crazy boost in the turns. And I don't even speed anyore or do crazy lane changes. But in the MINI, I go completely nuts. With only 120 HP, you have to learn how to use every bit of it. I know I'll never blow out the rears, so I take almost every turn hard. I'm changing lanes crazy(when safe). And I actually have way more fun on the streets with the MINI vs. the Z. But my Z these days is strictly for dragging at the track. Not much else. The only other times i take it out is going to the shop or going to a Z meet. That's it. I just don't want anything to happen to it. I too miss my old grey 2+2! But as a side note, it will hit the streets & tracks again soon, as a monster drag car. Just not with me driving behind the wheel.
