ABF's Mini Cooper is the World's Fastest

— August 19, 2008 — Autos
The fastest Mini Cooper in the world is made by none other than ABF Performance. This tiny supercar has a 10.48 second quarter-mile, courtesy of a 650-horsepower engine and trim 1,750-pound weight. Under the hood, you'll see a turbocharger and intercooler neatly tucked into the engine bay. It's worth noting that a stock Mini Cooper has about 172 horsepower.

ABF plans to roll out a bevy of turn-key street-legal road race cars just in time for November's SEMA show. They'll also release a Club Racing Mini Cooper series throughout the U.S.
