    Does anyone know if something has happened to Barry Brazier? I'm kinda worried. Actually, I'm very worried. He and MiniMania donated a Quicksilver exhaust system to The MINI Skirts raffle at MOTD this past Spring. The winner still hasn't received the exhaust. I've tried to contact Barry and all I hear in response are crickets. Something must be terribly wrong. If anyone knows anything about why Barry might be incommunicado, please let me know. Or if you're in touch with him, just let him know that all I'm trying to find out is when the winner will receive the exhaust. Keeping my fingers crossed that nothing bad has happened.

    You're making me cry. :sad:

    The MINI Skirts work hard to raise funds for the breast cancer and cervical cancer program that we support. We are who we say we are and we do what we say we do. We expect no more or any less from the folks that we deal with. I'm going to give Barry the benefit of the doubt that he is not willingly attempting to cheat a charity. In the meantime, I'm going to pray that it's not misplaced trust.

    Don't despair. While I'm not a huge fan of the magazine, I'd bet he has been distracted by MTTS and other MINI fun. I can't imagine he would intentionally skip out... Prob just buried by communications.

    Just placed a comment on his FB page where he bragged in May about packaging the exhaust for shipment. What a douche bag! My comment "Funny, I just read on a MINI forum that you haven't delivered on your promise of donating the exhaust. What's up with that?" I'm sure he will remove the comment.

    I'm in for that one!

    Barry, and MC2 have hit a new low if they do not deliver what was promised... Cheating people out of money when they need it most, such a disgrace. :(

    I'm not trying to wish Barry ill. I just need to know what's happening. If he has made a promise that he can't fulfill, I need him to tell me. It's that simple. I'm in the dark about why the exhaust wasn't shipped.

    Someone that promises to donate to worthy causes such as yours and doesn't deliver needs to be called out. I'm on a mission....if he doesn't respond I'll post up on his Timeline tomorrow. It's called integrity.

    My thanks to everyone who reached out to Barry to contact me. I received an email from him with the FedEx tracking number of the exhaust shipment. Unfortunately, there is a typo in the number he provided (it's missing a digit) so I am unable to track the progress and delivery of the shipment.

    I am overwhelmed by the outpouring of support that I received here, through social media, and PMs. Thank you all for your love and support of The MINI Skirts!

    Not judging but it would seem that after all of the connerie, providing the tracking number would be the time to bring your A-game. C'est dommage.

    I will bet that if Berry doesn't come through the good folks here at MA will come to your rescue. I'll back my comment with a few bucks.
