I'm actually ashamed that I took as few pics as I did. I got a lot of scenery pics but very few MINI pics. A few great foggy shots of the dam, but not a car in sight.

We did take the girls for a quick few on the way up on the first day though



I'm patiently awaiting Sunday's shots from Killboy. I saw the photographer and hope mine turn out good.

Hey if anyone comes across photos of my car, please let me know. I'd appreciate it. I have not found any yet.

My car looks the same as the minature in my signature. Black with checkerboard roof and checkerboard unistripe with pinstriping (and matching center caps).

Thanks!

A few pics are on the front page here:

My favorite is the very top right pic on the page though. Anyone who thought we were crazy saying that a house in the road turned our 1-2 hour Saturday drive into a 5 hour excursion can see for themselves. See! A house in the road

I wish I had more from the event but I was out driving quite a bit.
What was up with the Alien at this place??

3M you should have had steve face the other way, so he doesn't show his "bruise" so much. That will be an awesome pic when it is done. It was great meeting you down at the dragon. Sorry I was so quiet...LOL

I'm not the owner, but I believe somewhere along the lines of $3k, and about 3-4 weeks without your Mini.

THat's it!!! I dang near ran into that thing as I roared around the corner. I think I was the first MINI on the scene. I cursed myself that I didn't stop and get a picture of it. Thanks for posting that.

nahhhh.. unless you pay someone to do it for you.. a really good lambo door kit will run ya roughyl $1700-$1900 and that's one that can pretty much be installed by anyone with some mechanical knowledge.. I been looking at them for a while now, but I'm waiting for a door kit that will open more like the Koenigsegg's

google "Lambo or butterfly door kits".. then make sure you do your research some aren't really that great and involve tons of cutting, others claim no cutting but their struts are real weak, etc.. this company has some decent stuff from what I've heard..

LOL! That was me in the Alien outfit....I'm sure he'll be back! We always stay at the motorcycle cabin, it's great because we are right next door to Friendly Fields General Store. http://www.friendlyfields.com/

After driving for 500+ miles in the driving rain, it finally dried up and I got a really neat insight into the dynamic airflow characteristics over a MCS Hood (Bonnett..LOL!)
