Ok let me be the one to be an @ss and drop the bomb on this. The only way you beat a Saleen SC Stang is if the Saleen driver is retarded. Let's face it, a 290ish rwhp X-Charged v6 isn't gunna keep up with a Saleen v8 SC stang putting out probably 350+ rwhp.
And the mini cooper is turbo'd.

The Mini Cooper is quick, but it will not beat a Mustang power for power. What I mean by that is...well, check this out.
There is a guy in my neighborhood who has a Special Edition 2008 Saleen Supercharged and a Mini Cooper S Supercharged (or turbo?) aftermarket. And I have a friend who has a Mini Cooper that was turbocharged from the factory.
I raced both and won both with my X-Charger. The supercharged Mini Cooper really gave me the most run for my money, but I still won.
Stock vs stock or SC vs SC...I think the mustang wins. And from my personal experience, it has.

I suppose it wasn't clear enough. This topic is OBVIOUSLY about racing a Mini Cooper, and I only stated he had a Saleen, didn't say I raced it. The guy above me understood it right.

yes its OBVIOUSLY about racing a Mini Cooper. So the info about the SC Saleen was a complete waste of time to type about as it has NOTHING to do with this thread. If youre talking about racing 2 mini coopers, what does it matter that one of the guys owns a Saleen?

We're both auto. So it won't really be a driver race
