BendersMINI

Starting to upload pictures into the MTTB10 album in the gallery... hopefully that's the right place.

I’m inside at the far left corner of the bar (as facing the bar, look for the MINI hat in the sea of people...) It’s packed here, so unless enough people show up for a table, this corner will be the spot to find me...

Understandable... this is an experiment in variety to see what kind of turnout we get from something closer to the center of the area. For many of us who work in DC, it’s challenging to get out to Fairfax, Vienna, Manassas, and other points to the west in a reasonable amount of time after work. This is a chance to get an idea of the interest in happy hours by folks who might not normally attend.

I'll miss the first half, but will catch you at Monk's.

I'll cross my fingers that you can both make it!

Event Title: Happy Hour: Sine's, Pentagon Row Event Date: 10/24/2018 06:00 PM to 10/24/2018 08:00 PM Event Address: 1301 South Joyce Street, Arlington, Virginia, 22202, United States Event Title: Happy Hour at Sine's (pronounced like "shuh-nays") Event Date: 24 Oct, 2018 06:00 PM to 24 Oct, 2018 08:00 PM Event Address: https://www.sineirishpub.com Sine's on Pentagon Row, Arlington VA 1301 S. Joyce Street, Arlington, VA 22202 Trying something a little different... a bit closer in to the center(ish) of the DMV. Stop by on your way home from work or drive in the opposite direction to most everyone else. Parking (not free, sorry) is available in a garage under Pentagon Row, or adjacent at the Fashion Centre at Pentagon City. SOMETHING ELSE NEW: this may be one of the few events where you can attend without using your MINI. The Blue and Yellow lines service the Pentagon City station under the Fashion Centre and it's a quick 150 or so yards to Sine's. This could cause quite a bit of confusion on departure as there may not be as many cars to stand around while talking for that last hour or so... Wednesday, 24 Oct 2018 If the weather is nice, we'll sit outside! RSVP on the event here: Happy Hour: Sine's, Pentagon Row

**SOLD!** In the continuing journey of getting rid of items from my Countryman, the latest to be offered is this set of (4) white 18" ATS Streetrallye wheels, with TPMS sensors, and with Pirelli Sottozero runflat winter tires. http://atswheels.com/atswheels/en/dl/streetrallye-rallye-weiss-5l/ One of the wheels has some curb rash. See picture. Maybe you know a guy who knows a guy that can fix it? Tires are 225/50r18 with 14,500 miles and show very little wear. They've been run for 2 winters now. The size is slighter taller than stock 18", but this is not a problem (see picture). This pic is from my 2015 Countryman with the sport suspension option, so it's 10mm lower than the non-sport factory suspension. Plenty of clearance, no rubbing. Ok, if you've read this far then here's the part that you really want to know: $1100, but I'm negotiable. Cheers, Stephen

SOLD

No, I'm happy with the way it is now. Boredom may get the better of me down the road and I'll think about the Dinan or some other solution, but for now... it's good. ? No, I don't think there's any re-wiring. But, you could email Burger Motorsports and ask them if it's possible to run the N18 JB+ on an N14. There's a dial you can set inside the little box that adjusts the 'deceptive MAF reading' (my wording for what's happening) so maybe that can be set in a way that would work?

Ran it with my Countryman and liked it. Simply and easy mod for a little improvement in power. $140... special DCMM price before I put it on NAM! (and assuming a local DMV sale) http://www.burgertuning.com/index.html If you post here, please also shoot me a DM so that I get an email alert. I'm not logging in here as much as I should... Cheers!

Will bring fruit and veggie tray
