I had a blast and I can't wait to do it again next year (maybe by then I'll have a real camera and my pink Mini!)

He is sadly mistaken...this is not his honecomb (It's WagnBats)

Serendipity joining the ranks of the pink Minis

RC cars?

and last but not least (for now) my little buddy squirmy who hopefully didn't get squished when 300 Minis rolled in for a photoshoot.

I love that Dragon emblem, MLE. Do you know who's car it was on? BTW, great to meet you and Tuls. Sorry I didn't get to say goodbye. See you next year at MOTD!

Nice stuff, SG! As for the shot of Tori by the donuts, those were done at the prior weekend's Triumph Motorcycle Meet at Fontana....I was there, already! Boy, the sound of MINIs is music to my ears after all the Triumphs!

I'm not sure, it was on the boot of a pepper white parked by the side entrance at the brewswap. I don't remember much else, I'd have to look at other photos to see if I see it. It's a mystery. Glad to meet you too. We had a blast

Don-the Chrome Dragons were an item that AtlantaMINI members had. Check this thread for more info.

That was the back of El Kabong!!!
Call from the Atlanta club did a group buy for everyone a few weeks back, so most of us from AtlantaMinis have them.
Go check the thread Silver Magnetic Dragons, Call has posted where he got them and I believe is offering to do another group buy.

Oh and Stoopid Girl, you are a very talented photographer! Great shots, I am so jealous of someone who can get shots like yours!

You are an amazing photographer!!! I have been looking at your stuff for months! I wish I could have spent more time with you & Tori! It was my husbands & my first time to the dragon & time flew too quick! Can't wait to see everyone again!

ah. . . yes - Most of the Atlanta MINIs had the chrome dragons thanks to 'kewl kawl' (aka Mr. Bling).
I of course had to paint mine pink & my husband's EB! We love any excuse to paint something

Cool I made into your pictures. I'm the Green Mini in the RC Mini group.
Is RC short for Rocket City Mini's or RC cars, Because that is the Rocket City Mini's A.k.A the Cooper Heads!!!

Great pics.

I've looked at your photos for a while too. Some really amazing shots over on your site.

It was cool to meet you Thursday even if it was brief.
