I’ve missed the past few due to work or travel. Where is this year’s gathering? Still at the Roasterie?

Re: Ice Cream Cruise-In, Tuesday, July 27th, 2021 7 PM

Super late RSVP:

1) BRG R53 featuring rear seat delete & host of other removed parts while troubleshooting water leaks in the hatch area.
2) One slightly annoyed MINI owner who is determined to find said leaks, above.
3) maybe one doggie, aka ChiliDog, if it cools down enough.

Re: Peanut Butter Jelly Drive, Sunday, February 21st, 9:45 am

You can count me in with a MiniDave as a +1 as he eagerly awaits full use of his new titanium/teflon bionic knee. The weather is... well, rather salty so expect to see me in what ordinarily is a BRG JCW R53. This weekend, it could very well be Gray w/black top.

Re: Coopers and Coffee 2019, Thirteenth Annual, Sunday, October 13th

On my calendar unless work schedule intervenes. This year I'm likely to bring the '06 JCW as the P'up needs to undergo some heavy maintenance and likely down for the fall/winter. (I haven't posted anything here in a while and just noticed that my signature photo has a Photobucket water mark--Bastard...

Re: Sonic Cruise-In, Thursday May 30th KC Northland w/KC Small Car Club

I plan to be there, but which car and or with ChiliDog as co-pilot is still in the works. Might be fun to cross-pollinate some of my vintage, analog British Leyland steel with the carbon fiber MINI youngsters out there in the club. Visions of chomping tater tots and sharing the joy of having a secre...

I'm planning on attending.
1 person and can't decide on MINI or mini. If 94F, I think AC in rush hour traffic getting up North sounds better than classic sweat.

Is it too late to count me in?
I'll plan to do the drive, but if dinner headcount is already capped, no biggy.
If there's still room in the Mexi restaurant, pls add 1.

Re: Wheel Opinions

I think you need both! Toy cars need accessories to fit the mood of the day (or season, or event).
As for color preference, I like gold better.

Great find on the news clips. I can't imagine topping 100mph on that course. Yikes! We had great weather today, which made for a really nice outing. It's great to get the classics out of winter dormancy and back on the roads. We turned enough heads in Garnett while fueling and eating lunch--one woul...

These are really, really nice! Great job.
Will they be available for purchase by all, or was there a sign up and limited quantity produced? I'd love to have a few.

Re: Tires, Tyres, Tars

I'll chime in on track days... I miss the first few years of track days when it cost about $60, a tank of gas and half a day w/3 groupings. Nowadays, it costs 2x, an entire day, and no more track time due to extra classes. It has been fun, though, to experience the entire track, vs the shorter cours...
