    I received some inspiration care of Metalman. Changed the oil in Skooby, but did not mow the lawn. Thanks Chuck! :)

    Started brake upgrade project - new SS lines, brass guide bushings, new fluid, clean and paint calipers (not red). Probably take another week w/ all the rain and business travel this week. Should be nice when finished.

    I've had to really learn how to do this.... I hit one pretty hard, and that jolt has kept me very aware of the rest. Haha.
    And a MINI GP at an AutoX event? C'mon, give the other guys a chance. ;) Well done, sir.

    So Dave, are you seriously saying you would murder a human being if it would not dent your car?

    Just checking.

    Thanks, Nathan!

    I kind of hated going with a 4-door; but I have two beautiful grandsons living nearby, and the 3 year old is getting harder to load into the car seat with only two doors.

    This thing scoots nearly as well as my '09 JCW hardtop did, and still has SOME practicality. lol!

    It's Earth Day. Drive your MINI. :cool:

    I stopped in at Starbucks with my own cup, and got a free cup of coffee.
