Dyno Day at Prather Racing, Friday 10/5/2018 Topeka, KS

KC All British Car Show Sun Sept 2, 2018

This is a terrific show - the venue has moved around a bit, it originally was held at the Airport Marriot, then Zona Rosa, then Aristocrat hosted it on their lot but this year they are in the midst of major construction so it's been moved to the Farmer's Market in Merriam. This is a terrific venue -...

I'm checking on a different date and will update when I know more. Please stand by...

Re: Crickets

Man, people if you want activity on the forum - start something!

Don't wait for others to do it for you...…

I find it interesting that folks with 75 posts to their credit over several years are complaining about the lack of intersting posts on the forum.

Re: Essential tools for a MINI owner

Depends a lot on what the tools are for, for just general maintenance like oil changes, or for trips in case of a breakdown or ???

Re: Ozark Weekend Run, May 11-13, 2018

Thanks Johnna!

Not a lot of responses to this run, I would think an Ozark run in May would be just what cooped up Cooper owners would be up for!

Remember - this run is open to all MINI and Mini owners!

5/16-18 Time Sert Kit

Anyone have one I can borrow? I only need to fix one hole and didn't want to buy a whole kit just for the one repair - I think a Keen Sert would work too.

A heli coil won't work in this case.......
