    I bet that's possible. I'd bet that you can photoshop up what you want and shoot it with slide film to get a transparency image for the projection. I might shoot it from several different distances, so you get multiple sizes.

    If I weren't so damn lazy, this honestly sounds like a great side-hustle!

    LOL. Looks like someone already beat me to it! https://www.carledlogo.com/?gclid=CjwKCAjwpMOIBhBAEiwAy5M6YMJwWs1MNah_72CQQwVSLXj6pmk1-IjAU_B-xV76OOzXh-5Dyt47FRoCo34QAvD_BwE

    I couldn’t open the video but I’m gonna guess that a cruise with 25+ MINI’s made for a great time.

    Extra nice, just motoring with friends and getting lost together, who could ask for more. Nice to see a bunch of enthusiasts on video. Thanks for sharing.

    So I fired up checkers this morning and and went to the drugstore. That means I put about 5 miles on this year. I found the British car show to go to next month so I need to start my cleanup to get ready for the show.

    An article in the news today about a new small group requirement the state of California. I'm not sure if it's next year or year after but they are going to start checking the ECUs to see if they have been altered or have been changed from the stock program. If they have you will not be able to renew your license.

    Yes this is all over the Lotus forum. It turns out the EPA is monitoring forums. Turns out so is some manufactures. One guy had part of his warranty voided because of some mods. He was told the knew from the forums. What does it matter if your car can still pass emissions? I believe these unelected bureaucrat have to much power. Watch your back.

    Some years ago I tried to organize a tuning party with Jan for revolution mini works. I posted it on a couple of many websites and had 24 cars that wanted to get to tune. I received a call from the shop owner that was going to let Jan uses Dyno for the tuning. He said that he'd received a call saying that he might lose his repair license if he was to do this so I canceled the tuning. So I do believe that they track different websites to find out how and why people modify their cars.

    The largest offender was Volkswagen and their diesel scam which allowed the vehicle to pass emissions but in the real world was not in compliance.

    Drove the 2020 Clubby JCW to all my doctors appointments this week, enjoy the same short drive 3 times. Took the 11 Countryman to lunch as it was feeling neglected, took my sweet wife as she was feeling hungry. :) :)

    Spending more time in appointments than enjoying a nice brisk ride in the Clubby sucks.

    Sorry. Haven't had much time to be on here for awhile. Being retired recently, it has been extremely busy doing things I had put aside due to the number of hours I was working. I have been made a moderator of the Vancouver MINI Cooper Club and organizing drives for the MINI clubs here. Recently, we did our Harrison Hot Springs Run and last weekend, we did a run to Squamish.

    It's nice to have time to do the things you want.
