So is MINI Cooper hair. Didn't you know that? :eek6:

Jim

 

:shocked: eh?

 

Spring is coming and MOTD is just around the corner. It's time for you drivers to get your MINIs to handle. Get in touch with us to get your splitter, diffuser and spoiler extension to get the most out of your MINI.

Splitter, splitter, splitter.

Jim

 

Fits my '03 MC very nicely, in fact.

 

Heck yes, they have hairy wheel wells. The R53's have shaved ones. :ihih:

 

It works great for tying flys for Fly Fishing, but they tend to kill the fish. :frown2:

Hmmm...Jim's been smoking that PA Black Gold again....:devil:

 

No kidding!!!!!!
Looking forward to seeing the new stuff!
I'm also looking forward to sporting my new diffuser at the Dragon.....

Don't forget- I owe you a beer Mark

 

This will never happen, me forget :beer

Prototype GP Wings. Sounds like you all will need someone to test one for a year and report back next MOTD.

OK, you twisted my arm. :cornut:

Jim

 

Finally have time to do some serious work on my car--hopefully get the exhaust and rear diffuser on this weekend.

Mark, that rear wing is going on as soon as you guys are done testing and start production....

 

I'm going to bump this back up for a minute. I got the G4 wing extension and splitter put on at MOTD this year. I really do feel a difference, but I know there are some among us that will say it is nothing more then my butt dyno".

How about some of the others out there that have the G4 aero aids. What do you think about them?

Minimark, I noticed you have the canards, as well as those cool stripes, so how are they working out for you?

G4 seems to have a bunch of items in the works, for down the road, so I'm interested in what others think of the current offerings, because I'll be getting my social security check soon. :lol:

Jim

 

Ahhhh... Jim, correction.... G4 will be getting your social security check soon....

 

And I thank you for making it possible MM. :lol:

I just put the splitter on last weekend--I modified it somewhat, cut an arc in the back of it so it would line up with the second skid plate (and completely removed the 1 skid plate, the one with the lip hanging down, at it wasn't doing anything). This brought the splitter in so that it doesn't stick out nearly as much, and it lines up with the front of the trim on the wheel arch--I actually like the look, and I think I'll leave it full time instead of just on the track. It's a compromise; more sticking out would generate more downforce at the expense of drag, but I can leave it on and not worry about it. I need to adjust the angle a little bit--basically it should be 1-3 degrees down, its probably 1-3 degrees up at the moment.

I'm debating wether to get the kicker or wait for the rear wing, depending on how long it takes for the rear wing to be completed. Probably going to do the canards too.

 

I like the kicker, but the wing is really something and it works, rather than just for looks. Decisions are good.
