Washed Dark Helmet and dried it down with some Hydro.

Actually, did this yesterday.

Took GP2 #41 out for a flogging. Sport button on.







I'm thinking this car is a performance bargain. Especially considering this car comes standard with an extra set of wheels with winter tires mounted on them.

 

Didn't drive it but I did get some stuff and ordered some stuff too.

Got - Spare injector and pigtail to keep on shelf, just in case.

Ordered - Clutch and iPad MINI Mount.

Rescheduled an appointment to replace the rear sway bushings too. One day I shall lose that clunk.

 

Spray on polymer wax. Wash your car, spray with Hydro & dry. Makes your paint really pop! It could also be used as a quick detailer or clay bar lube.

 

Did a lot today.

Actually drove it some and filled the gas tank.

Craven Speed iPad Mini Mount arrived

Received notice the new clutch is being shipped today.

Made appointment to have said clutch installed next week.

 

Installed a BSH Oil Catch Can and DOS Cold Air Intake on my 2012 MCS. Sounds great inside and outside the car.

 

That's funny....when I added the NM CAI my wife asked me what was wrong with my car. I told her that since I put FAT tires on it that it was having a difficult time breathing

 

This past few days, worked at the MITM event and did some fun stuff in the mountains with Scooter and Rocketdog.

RD got a new DoS Carbon Fiber CAI for the Countryman (Street Version), looks so right. Luke put a similar unit on his Coupe, pictures are posted public on my FB page, search for me.

Got both Scooter and RD detailed and washed multiple times by our new detailing vendor at MITM, I had only enough personal time to lead the Countryman ride in the dirt. That was fun.

Pictures posted here: Countryman Dirt Run. This run was 22 miles of dirt and 98 miles long, we ran it pretty fast. Had a good lunch at the Yacht Club.

Let me know if you cannot access the FB album, I will reset permissions.

Decided that bigger turbos require BIG outer coolers to augment the puny oem inter cooler. :cornut:

 

The best muffler guy in Central CA works his magic one again....

Thanks Johnny! :beer

 

Gave the car a wash and put a new grill badge on.

 

Went for a drive, how refreshing. Been some time since I did that with no particular place to go.

 

I called ASK MINI. My Roadster S is scheduled for production next week.

 

Today I took the Mini out early and meet up with 2 other friends with R53's at a local Cars and Coffee.

 

Today I took my wife to the airport for a work trip. The return run home was a high speed blast on I-95. Whoo hoo!

 

Took off the Dragon, I hope you can see the picture. Clean looking 20% tint for my tired blind eyes.

 

Heard that the Body Shop pulled my car in the shop Friday and will get to work on it in earnest this coming week.
