[Lost FOB]

We now have Tiles on all keys for just this reason.... Stupid keys are $$$

[Lost FOB]

Also apparently on the F5# series only FOBs from the factory will work.  I had lost one of mine and was quoted about the same $500, but I got lucky and my key was found.  Good luck!

NM lowering springs and Koni yellows from @MarkDDrew

Looking good!!!

[Installing Lowering Springs]

I didn't change rear control arms, and never had tire wear issues with those springs.  So you should be good there with the stock ones, at least on the street.  

 

[Installing Lowering Springs]

I had them professionally done.  But I am about to do coilovers on my new BMW.  The problem with the MINI is there aren't a lot of guides out there that show off the whole process.  For the BMW there are tons of videos on youtube about how to do it.

Double check your OEM shocks for any signs of leaks.  The rears failed me at about 45k miles, which is why I jumped to the coilovers.

[Premium Event: DCMM Scavenger HUNT]

I'm a maybe, but won't be doing the scavenger hunt as I have no +1 and still playing things safe. I will try to come out to Katie's pre-run...I'm getting shot number 2 on Saturday, so I'll see how I'm feeling. Would just be nice to hit up C&C and see folks.

 

Hope you all have a blast on the Hunt, these were one of Dana and I's favorite events.

 

Heads up, the start is in Leesburg, not at Katie's (which is still closed due to covid).  Last 2 weekends have been a pretty good turnout at the Leesburg C&C.  Weather looks like it might be rain on sunday, so it's unclear how good the turnout will be.

 

As for the scavenger hunt, any more details that can be shared?  What's the lunch plan?

Yes Sir, we run rain or shine. Just no ice or other safety concerns.

Great!  See everyone on Sunday

[The Mistress Run]

Is the run still a go with rain?

[The Mistress Run]

Remind me, what radio channel do you guys run?  Santa apparently thought I was good last year  

 

So far Sunday's weather is looking good.  

[The Mistress Run]

Got it. Thanks!

4 spots left. 

[The Mistress Run]

Am I on the RSVP yes list?  

[The Mistress Run]

We will be there.  Any changes or updates to the locations?

[Got Coopah's Rims Powder-Coated]

Looks great.  Love the black rims.  But I might be biased because your MINI is my smaller twin

 

 

[Tri-State Run (VA/MD/WV)]

Lets see if I can figure out how to add a couple pictures.
