In the latest episode of Drive, Matt Farah took the 2014 Mini Cooper Works GP to the Silver State Classic -- an open road challenge in the Nevada desert -- to see just how good the GP really is.

According to Matt, he was excited about the idea, but in the end the experiment didn't go too well, because the organizers wanted them to go relatively slowly, and when driving a Mini->ke57 GP, the only thing you can do is go fast as hell. So, check out the video to see what happened in the end and how fast the GP really is.

As a reminder, the GP is powered by a modified 1.6-liter, four-cylinder, turbocharged engine that delivers a total of 218 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 191 pound-feet of torque from just 1,750 rpm. It goes from 0 to 60 mph in just 6.3 seconds and up to a top speed of 150 mph.
