  1. Laura (club president) has a ton of them, she can send them to you.

     

    I've literally stalked people in a parking lot so that I could hand them a card in person and tell them about the club. So far everyone has been very friendly but I have no idea if any of them have actually joined.

     

    I love tagging MINI's!:itsme:

     

    Now to just get more of them to wave

  2. Did you see photographers when you were out? Maybe they don't have all of their pics up yet.

     

    I hate the interface on all of the sites, it's very cumbersome and was making me nuts.

  3. I ordered some electronic pics and the CD came fast. I've already uploaded them to Facebook. I love the quality of the pics, very sharp and in focus and great color.

    At the panoramic photo, I heard Ali telling someone that she drove Kooper back down the Dragon and after that, she had to get a pulley put on Tigger... Now it's being blamed on Edge!

     

     

    Hey Craig you still get credit for the final push to get the pulley. OK, before I drove Kooper I had no intention of doing any engine mods at all, it really is all your fault. :biggrin:

     

    Edge is now just baiting me to get more, more, more.....

     

    Just wait till Tigger hits the Dragon next year :motor:

  5. What about shock tower plates? Do you have any?

     

     

    I don't even know what a shock tower plate is. Last time I got into car engines was in the early 80's and engines were very different back then.

     

    It's going to take me years to get Tigger all fast and modded up, I plan to enjoy each and every step of it. I was thinking Cold Air Intake next or exhaust because I love the sounds of some of the beefier exhausts.

  6. ...and now technically you're ahead of Ali since you already have intake and exhaust. :biggrin:

     

    However, enough can not be said about the fact that brakes and suspension are just as (if not more) important! :tongue:

     

    Ooooh how you bait me. I'll catch up, just give me some time

    :biggrin:

  7. I saw you Alan, and Daniel and Celia and wolftoy

     

    There were a ton of us there, good pics too

     

    I found pics of me driving Tigger up the Dragon and Koop coming down the Dragon.

  8. Audrey -

    We did the lazy bonnets up in the parking lot of the Microtel. There were 2 gen ones so we each raised our bonnets at dark and took the pics. It was fun even if we weren't on the dragon.

  9. I had a blast the whole time. Tigger got his first mod and the flames. After that long drive home I washed and did a quick wax with slick just to see him all pretty and free of the road grime.

     

    I learned a ton about my car and love it even more now. I still smile every time I hear the new sound of the engine from my new pulley or when I see those flames!!! What to do next?

     

    I drove the Dragon twice once before the pulley and once after, there was a difference for sure. I really noticed it going home on the big up hills, Tigger was keeping up much easier.

     

    I uploaded a slew of pics

    Thanks to Craig, Marty and Rick for leading us home. I've never done a caravan like that before. It was way better then driving alone. Can't wait for next year.

  10. Tali and I are working together to try and accomplish this. He's calling now to see if the parts are in stock, if they are, he's picking them up and bringing them to me in DC at my work.

    I'll bring them with me and have them to Fontana by tomorrow

     

    It's the MINI network at it's finest. I will let you know more after he calls and confirms that he has the part.

  11. Edge -

     

    If MINI of Annapolis can transfer the bolts to Passport MINI I can get them and bring them with me. Passport is 3 miles from my house. We leave tomorrow night so I could get there right before 6:00

     

    Let me know if that would work.

    My cell is 703-201-6899 if you can get them to do the transfer.
