    I washed my MC on Wednesday and had a dent removed from the driver's door, by Troy. Then, I had an ecu tune done on Thursday, by Waylen.

    Added loads of miles to Skooby the clubster. While resting I had the good folks at Helix do a mind meld & add some neat coding stuff. Troy the master dent wizard removed some nasty dents. Thanks guys! :D

    Edit *** Aaron & Andrea of Outmotoring stocked me up on beauty products for our MINIs.

    1) Acquired hangover
    2) Nursed hangover
    3) Repeat

    And that was the car. Is there a thread about what we did to ourselves?

    1. Stuffed an inflatable donut in it for the Donut run
    2. Took it out at least once a day for a drive
    3. Had a couple of dents removed
    4. Drove it in the rain from Fontana to Cincy on Sunday (thought we were going to need an ark to get us home, so it was good that there was not more than 2 of any body style in our group)

    Mine are WMW tunes, as I'd rather keep them East Coast ones [no offense to you Left Coasters].
