    I love watching you guys in anticipation when I finally get on my feet with a solid job. I’m in flight school and as soon as I get my hours and the money I want to come to you guys and create something beautiful!

    Love the wee car, love your enthusiasm, and the amount of thought you have put into the build, but a few points bemuse me.
    Firstly, the idea of a Lotus inspired Mini. Growing up in the UK I always considered Lotus to be related to Ford (Lotus Cortina, DFV F1 engine, etc.). Minis were BMC machines, Ford’s major competitor in the UK market. The idea of a Mini that references its biggest competitor is somewhat weird….
    Secondly, you don’t wear your seat belts because it makes your mic rustle? Yes, I’d rather hear your commentary clearly, but if you think rustling upsets it, try death: that really doesn’t help at all. Just relocate your mic, or clip it to the seat belt. Please, I like your vids and the cars and would love them to continue.
    Last point; please could you tell us about the engine in that car? It sounded great, seems really powerful and tractable. I’d love to know more.
    Sorry, sounds like a rant which isn’t the aim. Really just pointing up a couple of differences between US Mini culture, which you are clearly developing through your impressive business, and UK Mini culture, which I first slipped into in 1959.
    Cheers
    Will

    Very nice touches, Jet Motors are leading the way in Classic mini movement (the consistency and quality)
    Just finished watching the turbo Vs Twin cam motor, I think turbo twin cam could be a Lotus inspired mini kit, with yellow and green theme (yellow painted performance callipers, yellow decal, yellow anti roll bars and yellow performance paint Jet Motor performances suspension kit.

    As it's Lootus and its Green. You shou should call it Jim or Clarky!
    Personally I'd like to see one based on the Lotus 78 Andretti livery. That would be awesome.

    Thats a lovely looking Mini. I'm actually quite amazed to discover that the classic Mini sold in Amersica, did it or are they just imported. Passed my diving test in a s**t brown coloured one back in the day. Such fun cars to drive

    @sicosis 7 місяців тому +1

    Being an English man, I've seem my fair share of classic minis before. If you wanted to include lotus influence to that car, why not look at lotus cars themselves? i.e using a K series rover twin cam 1.4 lump n 5speed box? Lotus used twin cam small capacity lumps
    That's just one example. Sorry but yellow bumpers n cheesy handpainted wheel rims look disrespectful.

    Nice! Reminds me of the Lotus Carlton… wear you’re seatbelt, it’s such a millennial thing to excuse yourself from wearing safety belts, for better sound… wear the mic in a different place.
    I’d call this one the Mini Looper.

    so basically, everyone else did the real stuff and you just painted in it yellow bits and added some shiny bling and now you're claiming it's lotus inspired? can i get one i red and it's a Ferarri? but yeah good quality workmanship there too so good job on what you did.
