We can do an oil change and belt replacement no problem. No job too small, or too big, we got a lift so it's like being at my shop.

PM replied.

Are you going to BBQ both days? I'm thinking of probably coming down Saturday, but, still not positive. I'll be giving Way a call today with a few questions.

Thank you Way for talking with me about CHEQQRS next mods. I appreciate your input and honesty. I will see you Saturday. Oooh, a rear sway bar, yea! And low dust brake pads, and maybe that oil change and belt too if they're needed.

Give Waylen a call. I think he'll be in transit and should be arriving tomorrow sometime. All work will be performed on SAT.

Come on out! bring a lawn chair

thanks for coming out!!!!

*** WRAP-UP ***

with 12+ MINIs in attendance, we had enough work to keep Waylen and Matt busy all day (and well into the night). It was a long day for those two guys and we're really glad they came up. Way Motor Works
  • Thanks to Dan (Import Service Center) for letting us use his place for the work and the bbq grill. Also for getting us hooked up with a dyno.
  • Thanks to Waylen and Matt for making the trip for us. we wanted to make sure your working facilities were even better on this trip.
  • Finally, thanks to all of our MINI friends for coming out. We had a good mix of CHGO and WI MINIs at this party. I hope everyone enjoyed the day.

Hey everyone, I wanted to give a big thank you to everyone involved in the Mod Party with Way. While I didn't get the oil change, or the new belt, or the low dust brake pads, I DID get the H-Sport 19mm rear anti-sway bar. And, Way found that one of my front control arm bushings was shot. That fix kinda emptied the wallet quickly. So, now CHEQQRS has purple PowerFlex bushings. Wow, between not having a blown bushing and the new anti sway bar - what a difference! Of course now I can tell how much better it would be having different tires. OMG, the desire for mods just never ends

It was really great meeting you all and having the chance to hang out, talk, and watch the cars get worked on. Thank you all again, especially Way!
