Technical Session by WAY Fri. & Sat.

Way from Way Motor Works will be hosting a Tech Session/Tech Talk on Fri. and Sat. 1-2PM at the Way Motor Works Booth in the Vendor area. Everyone is welcome and it's FREE. I will be able to give a demonstration such as changing oil or installing Brakes, whatever you guys want. Then after the demo I'll do a Q&A where you can ask all the MINI questions you want. Post here suggestions with what you'd like me to demo or talk about.

See you there.
WAY

I would like to ask some questions about how you decide where you are going to stay when you go on a trip.

There's some good stories there, but I'll stick with talking MINI's at the Dragon.

I take a lot of long trips in my MINI and I worry about break downs. I'm curious if I should carry extra sway bars in my MINI ..... you know, just in case. If so, how many should I carry and is there a recommended way to do it?

I just want to know if you'll be bringing your girlfriend, and making her sit on sway bars, or some other part I'll have to buy out of chivalry? ;-)

Hey, at least your thread is getting some bumps from our wackiness!

I'll bring Donna some extra swaybars.

As for the girlfriend I'll let her drive her MINI without extra swaybars. I'll let her have the extra pullies.

I no longer have a MINI but this is a fantastic idea.

Good call

How about the non black eye method of changing an idler pulley?

Great Idea by the Way!

I'd love to see a do-it-yourself demo on how to change out the passenger uniside for less than 50 bucks using only kitchen utensils and a zippo lighter

I think your class on "How to pack enough parts in a MINI to construct 3 more new MINIs" would be a big hit, too

That's great!! Come on Way fans!!
I know there are a tons of these "special skills" of Way's. A tech session is a fabulous idea. So you can DIY the Way way. Let's hear them.

Judging from the pop in the face he got in SC, I'd say someone needs to teach Way that trick.
