Deal, did somebody say Deal? Oh, Dean, yeah that's me.
Default Want to join the G Stock army?

Salvage 04 Mini cheap...

I doubt it really has lifter issues, it is probably the fuel injection, and if it does, so what, it should still be under warrenty...

The only problem is that the '05s are probably going to be even faster with a couple more HP, and limited slip diff.

G Stock is probably the only class with a chance of catching the Karts at least in Reno in '05... Every other competitive class got hurt a much if not worse than F125...

What the hell, did it fall though a frozen lake bed or something? Damn. You're right though Dean, that thing could go for really cheap...

With a buy it now of $16,500.00, the reserve is probably 15-16K... Not bad for an under 6K mile Mini S. Heck, it is probably worth the full buy it now price considering what the clean title ones buy it now prices are...

Ummm, it sounds like the motor was hydrolocked... that "lifter tap" is probably rod knock. I wouldn't trust that motor at all. The rest of the car probably is fine though.
