Re: I need help

Henry,
	I haven't driven either.  And I know the Mini's are legendary for their 
handling.  It would be interesting to hear from our racing bretheren on the 
Digest how lap times of a Mini compare to a GTV on a real tight track  or 
autocross circuit (so that factors out some of the horsepower advantage of the 
GTV).  I think that would be a fair comparison of "tossablility."  My unbiased 
bet is on the GTV, but I could be wrong.
