1975_mini Posted February 16, 2020 Author Report Posted February 16, 2020 We finished the Pre-run today, and everything looks great, no gravel other then the winery driveway this year. this years present is they have freshly paved Crest Hill Rs, some of the best twisters on the route and now smooth pavement!!!! great little winery and they are excited to have us, and will even be setting aside the back room for us with private tastings. brandy’s review of the tasting was very good wines, all wines on the dry side. Tasting will be $13. 1 1975 Mini 1000, 998cc A+ w/ K&N air filter, 10" Mamba wheels
1975_mini Posted February 17, 2020 Author Report Posted February 17, 2020 The Mistress Run will kick off our run schedule this year. As many of us have not been motoring our MINIs much these past few months here is a friendly checklist to ensure you are ready for the twisties. Check fluid levels (oil, coolant, brake, and even washer fluid) Check tires for wear, cracking, bubbles (don’t forget the inside side walls) Check brakes (pad life, any vibration when stopping, is there an annoying squeak) Optional Run Prep Radios: charge and function check (if this is your first run do not worry, others have spares you can borrow) Cameras/GoPros: Charge and function check (did you get a new gadget for Xmas, try using it on your drive to work to get familiar. You do not want to be fighting with it at the run.) Wash your MINI: There will be plenty of Cameras and GoPros shooting the run, you may want to look your best for your close up. 1975 Mini 1000, 998cc A+ w/ K&N air filter, 10" Mamba wheels
