Re: Foodie Thread

Hayward's is awful and kinda of a dirty place. Buy the sauce at the grocery store.
The last time I ate at KC Masterpiece, I felt like I'd been held up at gunpoint.
Gates is good, but don't like the herding and yelling.
Haven't been to LC's in a while, but it was always my favorite.

Maybe limit myself to Classics and installing accessories on BINIs, like spring kits, CAI's, BBK's and such

KC BMW Club has chosen not to pay the "price". Keep in mind, the weekends that Porsche & Audi clubs run they have "charity laps". They occur pretty much at noon on the dot. For a $10 fee you get 8-10 laps at speed behind a pace car and no passing allowed. Just get in line bef...

Saturn, Keeping the runflats for now. Just have money for the wheels.
Wondered if changing the TPMS was a problem. Been dealing with a local gas station/repair/tire shop for tires. Will check with them on the changeover.
Thinking about the ASA AR2 in black to go with my DS/B Cooper.

Saturn - I am thinking of new wheels and was wondering who mounted the TPMS sensors and tires? And of course cost!

Bored today and decided that a drive on K-5 would be a fixer! Had not driven the MINI for 4-5 days so I had to do it. As I exited 435 at Wolcott what appears in front of me was a R53 ( black with a checkered roof and a Dennis Moore bumper sticker ) We had a spirited drive until a slower car bogged u...

On the bright side, Baron has 30-40 new MINIs sitting on their lot. You should be able to find a good replacement!

Not a photog either. My daughter gets all her stuff from B&H in N.Y.
Of course she lives in Hoboken, so its local for her. They do mail out a huge catalog. Locally I would recommend CRICK on Stateline about 77th Street.
