    One of Santa's helpers dropped by and told me Santa was over-loaded this year so he was sent to drop of a present early. Something I have always wanted but could never afford---A Randall knife.

    Plus you will want the washer tank to clean the bugs off your windshield since you will be out driving it so much and at a high rate of speed. :D

    The prime rib should be ready around 1600 Tuesday afternoon. But, if you like oysters, we're having oyster stew ~0800 for breakfast (family tradition) and fried oysters for snacks around noon. Won't be using the new grill though. That still has to be assembled. Rib roast will be cooked using my infrared turkey frier. Merry Christmas to you Sir.

    Dave, your advice is very sound...but it won't fit my circumstances. I have Koni FSD shocks which, when coupled with Colin's springs, will give me a harsher ride...although better cornering. My wife needs the softer ride because of her back problems and...happy wife, happy mods. The air suspension will keep the ride quality while allowing me to lower the car when I want to.
    The meth kit will provide better cooling and I am a firm believer that the W11 MINI engine is VERY heat sensitive. I guess I'll just wait and see what Santa brings me. You do believe in Santa...right?

    Sweet! Have you got your matches and emergency fishing tackle in the handle? I had a Randall back in the late 60's. Great knife, very similar to yours, but needed money and had to sell it when my son was born in '72. They weren't cheap back then, but were nowhere the collectors items they are today. I know you're a happy camper!

    I would like Meth for the Helmet. Or I wish I could completely redo the R53 and add a RMW stroker and meth.

    I got a brand new OEM R53 car cover for my son's Mini.

    If I could have some MiniGarage carbon hood vents from Santa for mine, I'd be happy, but other stuff had priority this winter, so maybe next year.

    Yes it’s possible but many that have done it regret it and end up installing a separate tank just for meth.

    Go with a separate tank from the beginning.
