For roughly $30,000, you can purchase a miniature BMW M6, Porsche 911 or Dodge Viper and race it in the MitJet Series. At 1,100 pounds, the mini race cars are super light. However, the 125 horsepower motorbike engines help rocket the cars from 0-60 mph in just over 3 seconds.  Looking like Legends racers for the Euro set, Mitjet has been running a racing series in France and Spain that uses miniature replica bodies from famous sportscars sitting atop dedicated racing chassis. At first they really look like those photoshops of shrunken exotic cars that are so popular as avatars. But they are very real as the video will show. And fun too. Unlike the Legends cars that mimic the styling of classic American stock cars from the '30s, however, the Mitjet racers look like Touring Car Shrinky Dinks.
