That is a pretty good source for low prices but stock is low. Better prices than 1010tires.com
The RA-1 isn't available in very many sizes for a track tire for the MINI.
205/40ZR17 RA-1 COMP BL Low Stock $ 170.00
205/50ZR15 RA-1 COMP BL Low Stock $ 149.00
205/55ZR16 RA-1 COMP BL Low Stock $ 159.00
225/50ZR15 RA-1 COMP BL Low Stock $ 155.00
225/50ZR16 RA-1 COMP BL Low Stock $ 159.00
I'm not sure how they would do compared to the more popular and cheaper ($120 range) Kumho Victoracers and Kumho ecsta V700 in the same sizes.

RA-1 vs. Kumho
RA-1's are not as sticky as the Kumho's but they last a LOT longer... Probably a second or two slower on a long track... And the RA-1's can be driven on the street, no problem - you'll get thousands of street miles out of them, not hundreds like other race rubber.
I got ~6000 (easy) street miles and 7 track days out of a set of RA-1s...try that with the Kumho's! (different car, not MCS).
