I apologize, for all I know you may not be on an iOS device and getting to webview may not work the same way or be an option.

 

Friends don't let friends buy M7.

 

Shoulda seen my Jeep going down the Dragon... I swear there was no room between tire and line on either side!

 

I don't know because I do not have a strut bar because they really do not do much if anything at all. (Sorry)

 

I agree wholeheartedly! Of course I always tend to agree with things I have already done. Sorta adds justification to my already brilliant decisions. :biggrin5:
I replaced my suspension and installed a new RSB a couple of months before I added my strut bar. I'm considering installing a Racing Dynamics rear brace just for the hell of it. :cornut: Can't hurt, right?

 

You KNOW you are always welcome to trek back to Ohio and Mid Ohio. You have made great friends here in the MINI/Mini world and we all will be thrilled to see you again!

 

Finally put my new vacuum pump on. It was just a little more difficult than it initially looked.

 

Just ordered a Stoptech Sport Brake Kit. Rotors, pads, and stainless lines. Got a good deal at Autoanything web site. They won't be delivered until the end of the month so I'll post my amateur impressions and pictures soon after.

 

I did nothing with the Minis today. I played golf!

 

It only took me one Ex wife to learn that lesson. :lol:

 

Got the Mini detailed today. Getting it packed for another trip to the mountains of western NC. Stopping by Sneed4Speed on the way so I can try out one of his "billy club" shift knobs.

 

Or in my case, a nice ride in the park... Shot 76 though in 104 temps.

In the MINI's maintenance world today, I ordered new front brake pads and a new fuel filter.

 

Took my car out for a ride today with my Winter tires on. UGH
:mad2:Michelin Pilot A/S plus tires are so soft and squeaky it's like driving on balloons that always break loose. rrr:

I miss warm weather and my stiff Summer Dunlop ZII Star Specs with TONS of grip.

Come on Spring and Dragon season.....:biggrin5:

 

Nice car. I had an old long wheelbase FJ55 when I lived in Okinawa.

 

Yesterday my Lovely Bride and I washed off the crud & grime from our road trip earlier in the week. Degreased it, then Hoovered out the dirt from our hiking stint and put in the foul weather mats. We did such a good job, we waxed it. Now it's got it's fall/winter protective coat and really shines. So, we went out and had a sensible salad for lunch.

Since it was such a great day, went for a back roads ride on the Harley, then to the pool for some sun & swim. Back home in time to imbibe my 5:30 Martini (dry, of course.) Finished up with a home made anchovy pizza, bottle of champagne (brut) and screened a 1950's radioactive bug movie.

For me, life doesn't get much better than that. At least while on dry land or obeying the law of gravity. :cornut:

 

Gave the MINI the day off & took a nice long country drive in my little roadster.

 

Drove the Blu one to the dentist for my 6 month teeth sharpening. The verdict is, see you in 6 months.
I win!

 

Drove the Mini home from Asheville, NC today. Odometer ticked over 124K en route.
