It is a bit like a bumble bee. The math says it can't fly, but fly it does. Mini is the same way. They really can hit the top of the governor at the 155 MPH mark, no matter what the drag numbers say. No rounding required.

To epinions, C&M. I enjoyed your mini write up. A little rounding up on the top speed though. With a coefficient of drag of 0.35, the Mini Cooper places a bit high on the the drag chart. More like an SUV than a car. With a good tail wind it might get over 140. But don't listen to me, I get smoked by these things on the bahn all the time. In any case the JWP Mini is a heck of a tight little package. your a lucky guy to have one.
