You do have to be fairly commited thats for sure. As for competancy, building this car was the first time i'd ever attempted anything mechanical so I'm no expert by any means!

Having watched the several vids of it on google and youtube over and over again, this mini has sort of become an icon for me. 
I'll be following this with great intrest, oh yes!
Damn minis like this make me wish that I lived in the UK.
