    Is that from the tire smoke or engine smoke? :p

    Or bottle rockets?

    My Grandson and I will be there from Thursday through Sunday. So far we're doing the donut run, Pittsburger run, and a Dragonfire run. He likes to watch the glassblowing and buying something for his Mom. Thinking about a Dyno run if I can get my DP installed before then. I'll be stopping by the M/A tent to say hello.

    For while it was really hard to find the events section on the new site. We recently moved it up to the top level and will be making some other organizational changes. I also didn't know the historical way this was handled with MOTD and somewhat recently created the forum. There have been a few splinter discussions on other threads (example yours). I imagine it will pick up as we get closer. :)

    Thanks for the road status update.. glad its looking good. Can't wait to get up there!

    All good Sully, the lack of hype isn’t just here. Unfortunately it’s everywhere! I guess MINIs are just losing momentum as an actual fan base product. The numbers of registrants speak for themselves 4-5 years ago almost double the amount of people would already be on the list for MOTD, all the forums would have pretty much Dragon content only on the most recent posts, and all the Facebook groups simply didn’t exist. It’s really nothing to do with the board. Everyone that is a regular still keeps up, but with group upon group on Facebook a lot of the new enthusiastic MINI owners doesn’t have a clue because it’s rarely talked about. [emoji53]

    We'll try to find it, Dick. It will give us something to do after the Cigar Salon before we leave Friday morning. [instructions?]

    So all of them are this way? Or even a majority that would show up to this type of event? I personally do not agree with that. You are casting people based on body style.. IMO. That is a broad brush that can turn the other way..

    Detroit Tuned and my guys from Bavarian Repair will be there. They'll have any tool's she may require if something goes wrong. I've not had anything go wrong at the past 2 MOTD's, this one I trust will be the same. ((knocks on wood))

    Sure thing, I can check out your car detailing wise and provide advice. We can do it over a few beers, if you drink.

    Our cabin is 485, which is right across the the street on the corner from the entrance the cars use for the group photo on the ball field.

    @TheModFather I remember the pictures. Do you remember around what date that was? Maybe I can dig them up.
