    Thanks for encouragement on the Tune. I love my Mini even more. My wife has had to kick the JCW out of the bed the last few days. It was good meeting you.

    That was solid. Glad we did the triangle, er, I mean, ass-crack. We'll have to see what we have for options for next year. Maybe Snake to Rattlesnake and some Little Switzerland or something.

    Now a 2 MINI family...finally!

    We'll be dressed a bit differently this time around! Don't look for us in my Coupe, we will be in Erik's Horizon Blue JCW hardtop we picked up in October at Ralph Schomp for his birthday! It's a beauty!!! It has ALWAYS been my hope that we would take HIS car for racing around and leave my pretty girl to stay pretty a bit longer! Look forward to catching up with you! Teresa.

    Believe it or not all the roads down and around the Dragon are great. They are also well paved and smooth. No extra hight in your suspension is needed. No pot holes and hardly any road split bumps that jar you car.

    I don't think they use rock salt down south so the roads are perfect for epic drives with excellent grip and smooth transfers.

    The more things you all do on the way there gives me a better chance of catching up on the road. :)
