[Did ya hear my new exhaust?]

Last time I checked P-Tuning charges $75 an hour for welding work, but that may just be on repairs. Not sure if that applys to exhaust work/mods.

[Hello!]

Welcome! How much does your car weigh?? Also, the Silver/Gold combo is awesome, I'm a fan. As for shops I'm not really sure. I do all my own stuff, but I do recommend P-tuning. and post some pics of the car!

[Meet & Greet at MINI of Sterling]

Since I didn't sign up for my AutoX in time I now have a free morning. Anyone interested in going to Katies cars and coffee and then caravan over to the meet up? I'm interested in checking out OG racing while I'm out there also.

They are grainy on my end too.

[November Club Dinner @ DuClaw in Bowie]

Sara and I have obligations that day and not sure when it will end. Still tenative.

LOL, she really needs to get rid of that "ASS" sticker.

[Tigger had spa time with Odds and Ends]

Quick! Get him in the studio and take some pics before the winter ruins all that work!

Edit n/m, I thought this was during the week.

[Need help with installing a SS kit!]

Thinking about installing my exhaust tomorrow morning ... Only issue is I have no lift or jack stands. Anyone wanna help out??? I can provide beer and breakfast or I can meet someone at a better location.

 

I wish I could, I still have some work obligations to take care of.

[Need help with installing a SS kit!]

Ft Myer has a lift? The wash bays are awesome enough! (btw, any one know if these close for the winter, and if so, when?)

 

I'm not sure if Myer's has a lift, but Sara and I used the wash bays all last winter.

[Need help with installing a SS kit!]

I didn't realize that they have lifts. Is there a shop on Ft. Myer?

 

I'm not sure which base has the closest shop.

[Need help with installing a SS kit!]

Sooo, I'm hijacking the thread, because I need help with this as well. Didn't realize that you have to drop the exhaust to install. Perhaps after I order my CAI someone is willing to help me all in one day?? :joyman:

 

We can take your car to one of the hobby shops on base and use their lift.

[Trying a bold change, would love your opinion]

I think it looks great and appropriate for this time of year.

[The Great Pumpkin Run III]

Wow! That was a quite ummm….a ummm… memorable Pumpkin Run! Sorry about the lack of run sheets, I should have taken care of it on Friday right after the pre-run. And then the bit of gravel I led you down leaving for the optional drive afterwards, I have no idea why I thought we needed to go left. Anyways, I felt the ride out to the Pumpkin Patch went pretty well, many thanks to Mark for navigating us! The really exciting stuff happened on the optional run though! It was great to see everyone come together to help a few fellow motorists with their MINIs. We did get some pretty awesome driving done in spite of all that happened!

[The Great Pumpkin Run III]

Screw the MCM Run...I'll see you guys soon!

 

Yeah!!!!!

[The Great Pumpkin Run III]

It's becoming the MINI/ Lotus pumpkin run

 

WOOT!!!! 3 Loti!!!!:motor:

[The Great Pumpkin Run III]

Pre-run complete! A few updates, some good and some bad! I'll have them posted this evening.

 

EDIT!!

 

So Sara, Ali and I did the pre-run today. Everything involved with the traditional route is still great, no surprises. Earlier my post read that we would meet up at Caribou Coffee, that is wrong! We will be departing from the Target parking lot (same as spring fling, there is a Starbucks so you can still get coffee). We will spend roughly 2 hours (weather dependent) at the farm before we start the optional loop. We had to make changes to the optional run due to some gravel spots. Now before we get to the twisty section there will be a nice drive on river road. There will be NO run sheet for this route and this run will also be FAST! So please keep that in mind before you make your decision to attend, but of course all are welcome!

It's almost Great pumpkin time!!!!! :top:

 

:motor::motor:

 

Tyler Mark is coming with me but not bringing Max. I think he wants a ride in the Lotus and if you're looking for a navigator he could ride with you a while.

 

That works for me!:top:

[GoPro Hero price slashed, MUST GO!!!!!!!!!!!!]

Take a look at the original post - you may not be able to resist an offer like this!

 

FINE!!!

 

SARA...you need this!

[The Great Pumpkin Run III]

I can go tomorrow and probably on Thurs and maybe even on Fri

 

I can't get out of work any of those days. But I now have the 25th off, so if I can't do the run on Sunday, I will on the following Friday.

[The Great Pumpkin Run III]

If you go Saturday I can join ya, Sunday is the detailing clinic.

 

I have an AutoX Saturday and a work Halloween party that night.
