So you think you can drive a Mini. Here's something to shoot for.
Don't try this in your Pose Pack.

"Mini spinners." That's great. What a show.
Note to self: Finish the spin before reaching the end of the wetted area.

Wow!
I agree we should all have a skid pad to play on. I try a couple of handbrake spins down the road on a mossy lane, but nothing like Hopkins stuff!
It's all part of life's rich tapestry.

Here's another fun video - although I'd venture a guess that the Mini featured in this one is "slightly" modified.
