I think you'll find all types of folks of all interests and ages young and old driving MINIs. The cool part is that even though some of us may be a little older, the MINI brings back our youth. I enjoy a spirited drive myself on the empty twisties. What I've found, though, is that there is absolutely nothing I've done on the street that compares to the fun I have on a track day at PIR. I'm amazed at how much more of the car's capabilities can be explored on the track. It's quite exhilarating. Maybe not as exciting as the motorcycle road racing schools I attended, but the extra two wheels make me more comfortable when they're all squealing in a high speed drift. Check it out if you get a chance.

See you around.

Cheers!

P.S. We've got the same name too.

Yep! West Eugene.

I'll be up at Alta Mini Performance tomorrow with PDXMINI. It will be a great opportunity to learn some tech/mod stuff, wrench and hang out. There's a thread with details in PDXMINI if you are interested.
