    Took my car out for a run today and tomorrow I am heading out to my brother for fireworks.

    Looks like I will have to finally fill up my car with fuel since the Dragon.

    Actually got my wife to ride with me in the Blimey2.0 to the local brewery. With the 4pt harness. Which took some cajoling.

    They make plenty of it here...

    $25 every two years, and among the highest registration fees. :(

    Luckily I've got a second house in a non emissions controlled county... Where do I register the MINI? :)

    Drove it on down to the VBAC dinner meeting tonight and then six if us tested out our driving skills at the newly opened MB2 indoor karting track.

    Had a blast to say the least!

    FYI guys that break into cars and steal stereos love those stickers. :idea:

    They are called "target deacals" for a reason......:idea:

    I know they looks cool but you may want to remove them or you may attract the wrong people.

    Wife and I took the MINI to visit her grandmother. Filled it up with some Shell 93, went to the store and got some IBC Root Beer! Later plan to take my wife to a movie.

    After she mows the yard. :D

    26 years she's the best anyone could ask for!

    Dusted off my car today and took it out for a good run to get all my hairs on my head cut. :Thumbsup:

    Got home and heard a odd sound from under the hood. :mad2:

    Another tensioner bites the dust :nonod: after a year and a half that's not bad.
    Oh well Amazon $ 78.00 and a new belt just because it will be good as new again in no time soon.

    Went out to check if the new bumper covers are finally holding their form... For once they didnt try to spread back out when I popped the hardware loose. :)

    Another week locked in the heat, and I can start working on doing the mods I want to do, and finally paint them. :D

    I took my MINI out today, even with a jacked up tensioner, and picked up a toilet repair kit. Why are all new toilet parts all cheap ass plastic? I did find a good metal ballcock replacement kit that should last longer then the cheap plastic parts.
