What's a C Sedan Mustang? Any Mustang driver wanting to enter and beat up on the little Mini would do well to watch some videos and check the track times of this little beasts.

Thanks for posting, I can remember back in the day at my home track, Mosport (now Canadian Tire Motor Sport Park) here in

Ontario Canada, the Minis would eat the Mustangs, Corvettes & Camaros in the corners, on three and sometimes two wheels 

Like these two Minis saying "out of the way" to this Chevy at Mosport in '69

Or like this with a Ford Escort & Mustang at Reims 1970.
