Congrats Scotty! The new dashboard takes some getting used to, but definitely going to be a fun driver for you. Happy Thanksgiving!

Why is it always hard to say goodbye to our cars? lol A very Happy Thanksgiving to you, Evelyn and the family as well!

Thank you very much Lori I will say it was hard saying goodbye to LIL chili because I had done so much to that car but it was time and I really love all the cool stuff in this mini. Can't wait to see you all on the next event. I hope you and your family have a very happy Thanksgiving

WOW! That's a great looking MINI Scotty, congratulations on your new addition!

Just got a new mini today 2023 Cooper s haven't figured out a name yet.

UPDATE - Vibra Techs and the OHLINs coil overs (vs BC Racing that were on there) did the trick. Thanks to Freddy at GT Peace I am back to loving the drive... Rob

I was a member in 2024 and recently purchased a new Mini. Passport Mini stated membership is free for 1 year when you purchase a new vehicle, does that apply to prior members?

Update Request: Please let me know by posting or DM how many people you will have in your party. Event is cross-posted and I need to give the restaurant a head-count. Chillin' stop changed due to Gruto's closing their Purcellville location for the season.

Ordered Vibra-Technics Lower Engine Mount G2 for the lower but your suggestion might help for upper Powerflex site is down but I think I can find them. Thanks

You could use an oem trans mount with the powerflex poly insert that adds more stiffness. Also the yellow poly from powerflex for the engine are not to agressive

if they will pay for the jcw go OEM

I'm good and my mini is at the shop waiting for all the insurance companies to get everything worked out.

Sorry this happened to you, I hope everyone was ok? Hope you're able to get it fixed up and back on the road soon

Talked with an appraiser and he is saying that I will need a cat back exhaust. So, I can get an aftermarket or a new JCW cat back exhaust. Suggestions...

So, my mini is going to need a new rear bumper, exhaust, and basic stuff. I was wondering what new bumper cover and what exhaust upgrade I should get. I am guessing its from cat back? So, when it comes to the exhaust, I want a little more sound (like full time Sport mode sound but, not to much), I mainly want better accessible power! And yes, that's his bumper under mine.

Quick update: There are others RSVP'd on Facebook so be sure and get your free ticket. Dry run completed -- includes Harper's Ferry Road if you remember it from MTTS '16 (if you weren't there, then you definitely need to check it out on this run!) -- and it's going to be a tight 1.5 hours from Bojangles to the Distillery, so if you need longer than 30-40 minutes for Bojangles breakfast, please arrive a little early. Leaving the scheduled time "as is" but some will be there at 730, feel free to arrive early than 745.

Need help finding upper right and lower center mounts for engine and trans mount. Currently use polyurethane mounts from Torque Solutions. OEM were too soft and the engine felt like it was having a heart attack with my stage 2+ tune (inc ecu flash, water meth, downpipe delete, borla exhaust, brisk plugs, wagner intercooler) The polyurethane are too hard - engine is fine but all the vibration goes into the cabin and it is a squeek and rattle fest. Freddy at GT Peace is my go to shop. They found Vibra-Technics Lower Engine Mount G2 for the lower but nothing so far for the upper right. Key take away - trying to reduce interior vibration. Suggestions please. best, Rob
