TGGRRR (Ali)

Cool video!!

Could you see her texting and driving?

Last weekend I got a wave from a dark silver MINI with license plates that said "MyGoKart" I think that was it, I could be off. Actually it may have been a lighter silver. I do remember the wave though, we were on GW Parkway I was heading to the meet and greet. Yesterday a wave from a Chili Red in Reston. Good waver too :wavey: Ali

The black and white is cool, it looks more retro! I bet she had so much fun. It looks like she had a good spot to watch from

I just heard from Prima Car care that they will be one of our sponsors and sending some prizes. :congrats::congrats::congrats: Yippeeeee

I think my husband identified the location as Yamazato near where we live. If I remember there was another MINI parked 2 spots away and I tagged it Ali

That's so funny and a cute picture. I think the last time we had Thai was in Arlington on Columbia Pike, I just can't remember what their parking lot looked like.. thanks for showing me Ali

My Tigger? I wanna see it

That Mr EZ gets around, I saw him once too

I love the team spirit!!! This is going to be a really fun rally. We've put a lot of effort into making it fun, interesting, challenging and are working on some good prizes too. Ali

I tagged a MINI owner without her MINI today! We were in a park and she saw 4 MINI's together and asked if there was a club. So I gave her a card and she was very excited. Hope she comes and joins up.

Rich- I'll be interested to hear the results of the test Ali

Exactly!

I walked out of the Ballston Metro and my Cooper senses started tingling, so I looked around and found an Oxygen Blue Cooper, tagged it! Now I'm giving tags to Mark as he told me there are 3 MINI's in his work parking lot and one is a JCW. He knew best not to fight me on this

I left that one for Craig. Yeah what he said

Even coming back from the Dragon I was running 29 mpg. Jay can you ask Stacey to to just click the little button on the steering wheel and see what it says her avg MPG and avg speed is? She has the pulley and a gen 1, she is a good one to compare to. I do drive with a fairly even acceleration, sometimes I get a little happy and like to feel the MINI fun but I'm not one of those that's jerky on the gas pedal. When I drove Koop Craig even commented to me on how even I was on the accelerator. Where would be a good place to do the Seafoam party? A big old parking lot would be best. Ali

awwww Quitta - I just couldn't have you driving your exhausted self through the dark roads on your own like that. I was more then happy to help out. Plus it was fun to drive Blur, she's so peppy!

While I was off getting Snacks Mark told me a little kid had come by and said that Tigger was his favorite, it made my night! I had a lot of fun, lots of memories from the mid 80's when going to a drive in was a regular cheap weekend event.

That's not a dream it's a nightmare. I think I had the dream about Cricket because that morning there was a BRG that just wouldn't wave to me. I got next to her several times and she kept yapping on her phone and didn't even glance. As you can imagine I was frustrated and thinking how Laura would never have missed the wave.

I had a dream that I saw Cricket and waved, What does this mean? I'm dreaming about waving to MINI's :wavey:

Craig gets way more then my mileage. I just would like to get something a tad better, but I guess it won't happen. I did read that a lot of the mods that are recommended can increase performance and gas mileage, so maybe as I add more it will get a bit better. Ali

Craig I'll come over to your place and dump it in your neighbors yard that wouldn't even notice,

Oh how you torture me Craig :banghead: I guess it's a gen 1 thing, my gas mileage is really bad. I wonder if I can toss a can of seafoam in the tank once a week, will it help?

I paid $90 at PMoA, but now that I'm out of warranty I should learn to do it myself. I used to change my own oil all the time back in the 80's. Has the process changed much? drain the oil out, remove the filter with the oil filter wrench. Close it up and add new oil. right? How do you properly discard the old oil? I'm going to check out those YouTube videos Ali

I'm not really sure, I think every few months. I did figure out that it's when I toss it in the tank that it improves the gas mileage. Last weekend when Craig helped me do my second Seafoam we put almost the whole can in the pvc valve. It smoked like crazy and is more responsive but there was no change in gas mileage. I just happened to have another can so this morning I put that in and my gas mileage jumped from 17 mpg to 19 mpg with an average speed of 17 mph. I hate all the city driving, I rarely get to see any decent gas mileage.
