You should DEMOLISH a Mini.

John Cooper Works CHALLENGE
John Cooper Works (all body styles) 2008–
2009– 1,598 cc (1.598 L; 97.5 cu in) I4 turbo 211 PS (155 kW; 208 hp) @ 6,000, 261 N·m (193 lb·ft) @ 1,850-5,600 Overboost: 279 N·m (206 lb·ft) @ 2,000

One major problem with the Camaro is how heavy it is... 3,750 lbs vs. mini at 2,500lbs...
