'03 Cooper S in MD

Hi,
I'm Mark and just acquired a MCS, my first owning and driving a MINI. What a blast!
I own aircooled VW's and a bunch of airplane projects. Been an aerobatic pilot and crossed racing at Reno off the list in 2011.
I've never owned a car that cornered like this little beasty. It appears to be unmolested, which I intend to remedy. My 68 VW made 290hp at the wheels. I'll do CAI and One Ball it to begin with. Doing my research to see what I'll do after.
Look forward to learning from you all.
Mark

Mr T, thanks for the welcome and I finally got a pic loaded in my gallery. I also got my homemade CAI completed and the One Ball mod finished. I'm old enough to be able to keep my foot out of the loud peddle and haven't checked the mileage but it looks like I'll be getting better than the 30mpg I got the first go around. I'm enjoying my new ride.
Regards,
Mark
