Hello all. I've somewhat inherited the Mini from my wife as she's driving the family car now with the child....soon to be children. And as we're getting back down to two cars, the Mini is paid for and gets great mileage, so we're keeping it.

I started out drag racing but that quickly got boring. I joined the Formula SAE team at school and instantly loved it. Our team was somewhat unique as, if you put some wrench time in the car, you got some seat time. This is where I met my wife and her Indy Blue 03 MC. I've been getting more and more interested in AutoXing. I've taken my WRX a couple of times. It's hilarious how infanitly faster it is than the Mini, but I cant help but think that the Mini would spank it mercilessly on the AutoX course.

The car currently has 85k mi on it now and is requiring a bit of work. So I'm sure I'll be utilizing the resources on here a bit. As pointed out in a different thread, the pass. side wing mirror got vandalified. Also the windows only roll down when it's cold (I know the motors just need to be replaced).

Anyway, just intro-ing myself. Later

 

Hello Ben ... good to have you along for the ride
