Most liked posts in thread: What did you do with your MINI today?

I've been sick for two days, but went the the store today for provisions, and rolled my clean MINI into my garage just SECONDS before the rain started.

Wow, step away, Dave gets hit and CD get sick. Both of you get better, cars will get fixed, hopefully CD gets better and his MINI does not get wet.

Enjoy Monday before Tuesday....

Hope you feel better CD. Dave I hope you broke that dopes phone for him. Get well guys.

 

I gave the R53 its final DoDo Juicing today.

 

It rained all day, and I had to go out, so I decided to go out while it was raining hard, to see how my two-year old (I think) Hankooks were holding up. They did very well in my highly "scientific" puddle tests. No hydroplaning at all.

I stopped at the liker store on the way home. Ain't know way I'm watching election results sober tomorrow. :beer

But, I may be flying out West to photograph some cars on yet another "how soon can you get there" mission. I won't be able to drink (much), but at least I'll be busy.

My poor MINI will be spending more time waiting for me at the airport this week (in covered parking, of course).

EDIT: Oh, the virus seems to have lived it's life, and passed on. I feel better today. Thanks for the kind wishes!

Yep, kind'a is... But, there's another set of wheels in the future.

 

Sometimes you must move on. Hope the next ride brings you much happiness Jon.

 

No Lee, Dodo Juice is a great quick detailer.

This is what I did with my MINI today. Voted.

 

:lol:

 

I took Jocko out for a last high speed freeway spin, just because, and gave a middle finger wave to a Hillary supporter. Man that felt great!

 

Continued moving bits from my 85K 2009 R55-S+JCW to my 'new' 16K 2013 R55 JCW, as I prepare to sell my faithful companion.

 

Classy. :frown2:

My MINI stayed in the garage today. It will be spending the next few days in covered parking at the airport.

I'm thinking it will deserve a wash and vacuum, and maybe a wax job when I get back from California. I need to get a new clay bar before I wax the car.

Every time I see that Terlingua Racing Team logo, I want to tell you how fortunate I am that Bill Neale, a fellow UNT Art Alumnus, is a dear friend and mentor of mine. I can sit and listen to his stories for hours, and never get bored.

A truly amazing man.

Yesterday, I inventoried all the parts I am hoping to install this weekend (been supporting several sponsors). And then I placed another order for parts I forgot to order last time, and a few more of the parts on my lists.

 

Today, MISTRBD and I went to vote.

This afternoon/evening we took a nearly 200 mile road trip up to pick up a bunch of supplies from Adams Polishes (in preparation for a weekend detailing session).

 

Sorry you didn't like it Casey. I don't give a rip.

 

I already knew that. Totally expected.

Our flag was out on election day, not what I expected but I can now get on with getting my 11 all pretty. Going back down to Schomp on Thursday to get the front passenger door lock actuator replaced. Last time it was a fuse, now the actuator is dead, thus we know why it blew a fuse early in the summer.

I really do not like making 2 trips per month to the MINI dealer on the 11, at least I did buy the extended warranty which covers this stuff. RT is about 80 miles, not my daily desire for a commute, but I do get some interesting loaners of cars I will not buy.

Off and away.
