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

Had my friend over with her R53 and the power steering pump running all the time, even with key off. Needless to say the new pump and fan are ordered and ill swap it out tomorrow....

 

Went over 400 miles on the odometer today in the GP. Still another 100 before I start going over 4k on rpm's!

 

Today I took a spirited high-speed run to my 45 min away speed shop to pick up 5 gal jug of VP M 1 Meth for the Dragon.

100 octane Race fuel and Meth = FUN on the Dragon :devil::lol:

 

Off with the JCW springs.





New Swift springs, Enkei RPF1 wheels and Dunlop Star Spec Direzza ZII

 

Full detail today and a double layer of Rain X.

Packed tools, beer, 6 gallons of Meth, and wash bucket with supplies.

 

Careful with all the meth Dave... Your teeth'll fall out. Heck, share it maybe..... :beer

 

Glad to see you are still the same old Mr Jim. Waiting to do winter projects mere days before MOTD. :lol::lol:

washing the GP, finishing cleanup on wife's Roadster, rotating wife's tires and changing the oil on her car.

 

Washed Skoooby the clubster again. Hope it stays clean until tomorrow afternoon.

Checked the oil. Hey everyone CHECK YOUR OIL.

 

Drove home following a Roadster (wife) and a Paceman (FIL). Made home with no issues thank good

 

Order these today...

 

Took the good Dr. to Lowes for lumber to build the shed ramp for our new shed....

 

Painted top hats and calipers and other cosmetic additions with the help of CHKMINI

 

Ran the roads around Avon, Dotsero, Edwards, Gypsum for MITM on Thursday and Friday.

Scooter did well, found some dirt for the Countryman drive, it will be scenic and dirty.

Here is a little vista to think about for August, if you come out to play.

Replaced my radiator fan assembly today, my resistor fix was working fine but for 75.00 for the fan assembly I couldn't resist. Good thing too as the top hose was almost worn though where it was running against fan shroud!

 

Mounted my tablet in the car so I could use it for the Torque app to get OBD data in real time. Plus I can use it as a large screen GPS with the Co-Pilot app.

Plus I got a little bored and decided to mount my spare front bumper on the wall. I mean everyone has a spare don't they?

 

Yeah, until her car has better "stuff" on it than mine...

 

Drove to work and used up lots of Meth taking the long way.

Funny thing is I got to work earlier by going the long way.:ihih:

 

Jim JCW glasses are rose colored. That JCW front underpan is a nice piece. Much lighter than my aluminium skid plate.

Lots of fun at the shop today Chuck. Thanks for having us over.
