We had a great dinner tonight & we met Lionel Rutter the Parts Manager at our new MOB. He came out to join us for dinner!! & brought us some really nice key rings so if you missed the dinner you missed the swag ::neener::

Lionel let us know MOB is having a last minute event at the dealership this week.

With the KONI Sports Car Challenge at Barber's this weekend, Barbers is letting them borrow one of the MINI race cars to display at the dealership on Thursday (as in this Thursday July 16th!!). The event runs from 6-8PM & Jade Buford, a MINI race car driver will be there signing autographs. There will be burgers, hot dogs, chips, & sodas.

We are more than welcome to bring our MINIS to show them off too

Isn't is great having a local dealership!! MINI things are already starting to happen in Alabama!!

I am going to head over there after work Thursday to check everything out & I hope you guys will to.

So long story short:
one of the MINI racecars will be appearing at MINI of Birmingham (MOB) this Thursday starting at 6PM!!!

I will be at the event tonight and I have a aux port for a 2002 to 2006 Mini radio for sale. $20.00. Just look for the BRG Mini with Magic Mini on the windows or CooperHead Racing on the back window. Thanks.

Very sad to see more MINI's on the track Saturday than spectator MINI's, we used to have a good number of cars in the corral cheering the action on track, what happened ?,

Well I was there and I saw you there. As always you Classic looked really good. I think I count 7 minis there today for the sunday race but then I left early so it then 6.
