Thanks!

very well made video, keep it up

[@FootToPedal]

Thanks a lot man 👍

Thank you for clarifying that this car has auto rev match included. I just picked up my 2019 JCW and even the dealer that sold me the car wasn’t quite sure if it did have it or not. Actually curious to see if I can turn off the feature but otherwise good to know that it’s there in case I do get lazy....great video by the way

[@FootToPedal]

No problem at all, yeah can't say I was hugely impressed with dealer knowledge when I bought mine. Yeah so with the car in normal traction control on and dynamic traction the rev match feature is present but if you turn off traction control fully it disables it which is really nice. On top of that these cars are pretty easy to heel toe downshift so thankfully that element is still there! Thanks a lot man, cheers for watching 👍

Could you possibly try fitting a car seat facing rearward and then forward... I think it would be a worthy video for people out there like me looking at buying a mini jcw

[@FootToPedal]

Unfortunately I don't have a car seat to hand but what I can say is despite the aggressive bolstering on the seats, there is still a lot of useable width and I don't imagine there would be any issues having a car seat in there. I would think even more so in the rear seats, as these have even more useable space due less aggressive bolsters. Hope that helps!

Considering a Quaife Diff in mine

[@FootToPedal]

Ahaha been there before - if I increased power a Quaife LSD would almost be a must have I think. Think the standard torque vectoring by braking system would really struggle with an increase in power over stock
