My taxes are pretty much complete. Just need to wait until mid-Feb to be able to file them Oh, and we'll most likely be in the run with both MINIs! :rock:

It's heated. I was there with Craig and Marty recently. Nice setup, all the tools you'd need for practically any job, and friendly folks.

Just rolled out of bed. I'll be there, but there better be a cup of coffee with my name on it

The link, she broke! :rofl:

I'd buy one. Or 2. Or... several. :banghead:

FYI for those needing rooms. Fontana still has 3BR cabins, for ~$260/night available. That is of today, 1/12/11 at 1:00 PM

We're going. Both MINIs, too!

You get a room this year?

We probably will as well. No sense paying for 2 meals when one of us can't eat it (dairy/gluten restrictions)

I have some 16" bridge spokes, with RF tires and 2009 TPMS sensors. Some life left on the tires, enough to get you through the winter easily. Will sell the entire package for $250. You could remove the TPMS sensors and get $100-$150 for those!

I just rolled out of bed. Need to consult with the Mrs. I think I might be able to make it. It's off 50, right? EDIT: NM. I don't think I'll be making this one :\ Next one tho!

Maybe the 'inspection team' that helped with Mark's JCW can drive up there

I haven't been to any M&Gs at Annapolis yet, so - weather permitting - I might do this one. And hopefully test-drive a Countryman

I had a chance to sit in an F16 simulator many years ago. That thing had air bags that would inflate/deflate to simulate G-forces :rock:

Damn, might as well pick up a 46" TV just for GT5, then your setup is complete! Seriously, how's the realism compared to actually driving?

Who's got one of these setups I can test-drive before plunking down the $$? And by 'setup' I mean game, PS3, and steering wheel controller.

Done!

I'll bring a covered dish. An empty, covered dish. So, no R-rated white elephants?

Are the tires the same size across the board? Differences in tier circumference will change your speed and mileage slightly, which would affect the odometer reading and therefore, your mpg calculations That, coupled with the rolling resistance, wheel weight, and a few other factors could add up to the difference you're seeing.

At the White House! How many folks showed?

Don't I wish!

Can't do Fridays But don't count me in just yet - still pondering if I want to get mine tinted.

Tint party?

The last time I had my windows tinted, I lived in Florida (1988-93). I presume tint is better these days, but should I expect to get bubbles and/or discoloration within 6-7 years? I'm not concerned with the price as much as I am the quality and technology as far as the actual product is concerned. Also - considering both MD and VA quote legal tint as 'net' (meaning factory and aftermarket % combined), and most tint recommendations I've see are for exactly the max % that's legal, has anyone had any problems with this and Law Enforcement? -Jim

These are 16" Bridge Spoke OEM wheels, removed from a 2009 Clubman S. The tires are original, with ~27K miles on them. Also has the TMPS sensors for R55/R56/R57 up to 2009. At least one wheel has some curb rash that I recall. Wheels/tires are in storage in Chantilly, so I'm going from memory. Asking $250 for all of it. Would make a good set of winter wheels (won't clear JCW brakes). PM or email me if interested. Pictures upon request, but again - they're in storage away from home. Thanks for looking! -Jim
