Its a 1330, 45mm weber, lcb extractors, RE13 cam, electric ignition, last time it was on the dyno about 12 months ago had about

70 Hp at the wheels. It was a street car but after I bought my van I never re-registered it.

No I haven't driven the mini around bathurst but would love to one day! I haven't been up there for about 5 years but it is a great track.

The engine was built by a mini specialist in Sydney about 5 years ago. It has only done about 5000 miles since it was built and hasn't missed a beat!.

I was sharing the track with a forumla vee so we only went out 1 at a time so we did get the whole track to ourselves when we were out and managed to do in excess of 100 laps during the day. Here is a better photo of the car below
