    One of the members is an auto tech and a hardcore MINI guy. He also happened to have a house with a shop and a lift. It was a good time and a good experience for everybody.

    Drove to work but what a fun ride. This mornings cooler temps really woke up old Silverback. He was raring to let loose and run on the roads. :biggrin5:

    It is noticeably different the performance I experience depending on the weather.

    Installed sponsor Cravenspeed's GPS bracket. Got a mobile specialist to come for the install when I realized I did not have all required tools. He "hard wired" the unit. A great addition, or should I say mod.

    I thought about what tires to get next and which set of wheels they should go on.

    I really need new tires.... Yikes.

    ^ Man you sure do. The ones you have would be great for a dry track day, but not a damp road. :wink:

    Long skinny brushes are the key. Contact a local appliance repairman and ask him to get you a refrigerator coil brush. It is perfect for getting the bug jerkey off the radiator especially behind the lower grill where only very small midgets can go.
