1
Whoa!
2
Whoa!
3
Whoa!
4
That's spicy!
5
A bit!
6
Some people might say that we do not have minis often enough on the channel.
7
I cannot do anything about it, I'm just not being offered them often enough.
8
I drive pretty much anything that I'm being offered.
9
As long as it's safe and suitable for the track or unique.
10
But today we have a Mini R...
11
R36?
12
R36, yes.
13
R56.
14
R56.
15
Yes, R56.
16
You see, I'm not that much into Mini, so I need a bit of a reminder.
17
It has a very good base components and a very good base setup, because it's far from stock.
18
First of all, you can see it already on the outside, very big brakes, big tires, chunky AR1s, always very good.
19
current size 315.
20
Not huge, but the car does not need a lot because it's quite good.
21
Also interior has been done, so we have nice pull positions so we can stick in them and not move around.
22
Cooler works, shifter and a remap I think.
23
230 or so you said.
24
230 Osborne again.
25
Nice nice nice.
26
And that is mostly it.
27
So we've done a lot.
28
I liked it.
29
In general there were a few things that was kind of like for me like.. there's some vibration of the driveshaft.
30
There is also.. it's missing an LSD because with the power
31
and the narrow wheels it really.. it struggles with putting the power down.
32
It's a bit twitchy
33
and more importantly the steering wheel you cannot turn it completely to the left
34
or right because it has some brake cooling on the front
35
and the previous owner has locked in the steering positions you would not destroy the brake cooling.
36
Overall good intentions but not the greatest of executions.
37
So you can see underneath.
38
But the potential is there so with fixing those issues I'm sure it's going to be actually quite an interesting car.
39
Oh look at that, all the extra stuff.
40
It's the unappreciated Peugeot engine.
41
Nice, nice.
42
Famous problem of timing.
43
Yeah, no very good.
44
No, I'm like
45
like I said the base is very good just a few minor issues on this particular car
46
and spicy hitting a cooling spot on the track so it was Interesting.
47
Anyway, enjoy the mini and if you want to see more minis, send me more minis.
48
If you want to see any kind of car So just invite and we'll make it happen.
49
Anyway, thanks for the lap and you guys thanks for watching.
50
Well, you still need to finish watching.
51
Bye-bye oh okay I think I ain't got it here okay
52
weird did you see it on camera did it show anything
53
so much efficient put the globe on to put it back off again because you put the card in the pocket Anyway,
54
it's been a good day.
55
I have high hopes for this car because I drove lots of great cars today,
56
so I hope we're gonna finish on a positive note as well.
57
Off we go, Mini!
58
Since people are saying there are not enough Minis on the channel, this is one for you guys.
59
Very fast T36.
60
Brakes are good.
61
Some torque steer that is.
62
Now let's see where you at.
63
Back end slides nicely but then again we have very full tires.
64
There's some unpleasant vibration from the front,
65
I don't know if it's the drive shaft or if it's under propulsion.
66
The rotation is nice.
67
You can throw in the car like a classic me.
68
Nice lift up over here.
69
The brakes are really good, that I like, I just don't like the very short wheel-paste and high-speed sections.
70
Showing up for six-head supercars, letting the back end rotate.
71
You know it's been a good day, I'm not gonna go flat through here and risk it, all chill.
72
I should have kept it in turn probably but...
73
Oh no!
74
The verdict!
75
That's why there's a yellow flag, because someone's built something not so nice.
76
And I guess AI detection saw some fluid and drew in a yellow, because here is no yellow.
77
Yeah, to continue with the notion of today.
78
I'm quite happy with...
79
Probably 36 maybe, I don't know.
80
Or he's just like very very cautious with making sure that he doesn't hit another spot of coolant.
81
Or did he drop Listerino on the track?
82
Is it a bad joke?
83
I don't know, I think it's good.
84
Yeah, it needs desperately, I just need to fix the vibrations. But as mentioned I'm...
85
I'm quite happy how today's day has been so...
86
So no need to overdo it.
87
It's annoying I don't see the RPM gauge.
88
Because I'm having it there for you, the camera.
89
I don't know why, because we have our OBG reader from Draghi.
90
I think we're equally powered!
91
Maybe.
92
Because I'm flat, and he's gonna go flat through there, I have to brake a bit, I don't trust the back end, yeah.
93
I have to go a bit on the brake.
94
I'm just gonna go fast for the air with gears, over pressed, nah-nah bro!
95
Come on, get a grip on your life!
96
Oh it's a CRX that I'm gonna be driving tomorrow, excited for that one!
97
Hello.
98
Woof.
99
This one is spicy.
100
Come on.
101
Get a grip on the front end.
102
No Wipperman challenge with this, just the back end.
103
It's not gonna like that.
104
Ah, whiff it.
105
Don't try this at home, kids.
106
Unless your home is nerve-wrring.
107
Then don't do it there anyway.
108
The I
109
don't like this vibration on the front.
110
Front left.
111
So the right hand corners it gets worse.
112
The last thing I want is to lose a wheel, to lose a drive shaft.
113
Yeah, it's getting really really bad so...
114
I'm gonna go flat out right here.
115
F that!
116
Give a little thumbs up to Listerino.
117
We tried.
118
Verdict.
119
Set up a spicy, something on the front drive shaft, I think, or the wheel or whatever, there's a vibration.
120
No LSD, you cannot go early on the gas.
121
Brakes are great, phenomenal.
122
Tyres as well.
123
So those three little, little but big things, they are kind of frustrating.
124
So that would have been...
125
If they fixed, that would be a nice car.
126
Power could use a bit more, but not necessary, because it is actually good.
127
Maybe he dropped cool in there, because there's a corner of shame. Who knows?
128
Kind of sad.
129
Because like I said, I had so many good things today, including my Corvette, our Alpine.
130
And then this is like...
131
It's not horrible, it's just like...
132
It's not mind blowing.
133
Maya.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
