CR&PW&JB- Did you know your name is in my bb's autotext cause I'm too lazy to type out your name each time? LOL at the waffle blimey ears.

Man I thought FortWayne was like this town where girls were missing teeth and drove pickups...or at best a fat blond in a red pontiac.

Instead I'm seeing normal cars like S2K's, 335i coupes, normal pretty girls and even guys in suits, casual business attire!!! Wowzers mang.

But why is it light out at 9:30pm?! LOL


ML- yes, as CR&PW&JB mentioned you owe us some picts before burgers.

Leslie- can you send me a slice? send me 2 slices please one for the wife.

 

Here you go.. the other one's on the way via FedEx, or would you prefer UPS?

 

Hey, Ken... my name is a PITA to type. Trust me, I type it sometimes too and then I think about getting rid of a MINI or two just to save myself some typing.

And have Leslie use a company called zappos to ship that cake. They have next day delivery. I swear, I ordered my son a pair of shoes the other day from their website. Placed the order at 8:35 pm. At 8:47 I had a shipping confirmation and they were at my door the next morning before 11:00.

Off to wash a MINI or two. Have a good day, OCDetailers !

 

Dudes and Dudettes, I'm spending WAY too much time on the forums.... I dreamed last night that I was on a business trip in Chitown and was meeting someone else at a business there and stumbled upon kenchan. He looked just like Dr. Pierre Chang on Lost.

Of course, I had just taken a hydrocodone after waking up at 3AM from the pain of an inflamed gum...

 

Silly Blimey, that's what happens when you drink the Hydro.

Sorry, it's nearly 6am PST and i've been up since 430 for no reason. Hope you feel better soon.

 

Wow... seems a lot of us didn't sleep well last night.

I woke up at 2:52 due to intaking too much liquid last evening and remember looking at the clock at 4:13, still awake.

Yep, too much time on the forums and not enough time out there detailing to get us exhausted, I bet. Took care of it this morning though. Should sleep very well tonight.

I swear, my CR Cooper keeps getting better looking as time goes by. He's going to get so gorgeous, I'll never want to sell him.

 

wow, thanks. man, that's greeen. <- like my face.

hahahaha, that's funny. my wife's maiden name was pretty long
so she was happy to change to my last name when she got married.


<= this?

impossible. i have a bald head and a big grin =>

he looks like he can't remember if he turned off his gas stove before he left for work or not.


i slept real well, actually. overslept by one hr cause my bb was
set at chicago time and not eastern timezone. oops. still made it to
the meeting on-time and did some good business. FortWayne is a good
little town. i like it. my wife and i were the only Asians there. i think
they were facinated (probably first time in their entire lives) to see
a native English speaking 'chinese dood' that was actually pretty funny.

they dont have enough asian population so a lot of the retailers
haven't had to deal with non-english speaking heavy accented
annoying 'chinese doods' so very naively treated us the same way
as everyone else. pretty funny if you asked me cause ive lived in
very racial towns, very neutral towns, pretending not to be racial
but they are towns (chicagoland).

now i think Fortwaynians think 'chinese doods' all speak English
very well. and im not chinese.

going to motor my MCS tomorrow am. should be fun.
haven't driven him for the last 3wks.

going to be washing my FitSW afterwards since it's got plenty of bug
guts on the front end from the 380mile round trip. good to hear your
CR cooper's growing up to be a handsome looking man.

 

Man, you covered a lot of stuff in that post, ken. Especiall for a Chineese Dood.

Have fun motoring this morning, my friend. I'll be motoring soon, too. DCMM event with 47 MINIs showing up, some twisties, lunch, and a trip to the orchard. Should be fun.

And they'll be the first to see Bergey's new mods. You'll see soon... I know you're as anxious as a sailor at a ***** house, but hold your horses.

 

CR&PW&JB- hahaha, yah, that was kind of a long post.

woo~! Sounds good. Not sure if I'm that anxious to see , but ok, I guess I am kinda anxious. hahaha

Have fun motoring today. going to pull out my MCS in about 45min. waiting for the sun to finish up drying the roads. Rain heavily last night... Which was a good thing cause these stinky local bands were playing nearby and they got rain out. one more day of shittty music and we are done. hope more t-storms come by tonight...and stop just in time for fireworks. Then come back right after and shutdown the rest of the evening. hahaha.

too bad there's no toggle sw for rain...better yet, a mute button for my son. yak yak yak yak...yak yak yak yak. He's yakanese.

 

Time to go wash MINIs and take some pics!

 

sounds good, ML. hey, is motoron in chicago area this am? i think i may have spotted him at the corner of LakeCook and NW HW this am in Barrington.

some guy in a black MCS gave me a wave. and then a blowing kiss. WTF (jk about the blowing kiss part. )

 

motoring the MCS was fun. tried the Griot's new coconut duster on the entire car.
ok, this thing lints. im going to shake it out a tad more and see how it goes. it
removes the dust but leaves behind lint.

and the thread is like a blond girl's wet hair. like flat after it's wet. there's
really no volume like my head of hair.

i also tried the interior coconut duster on my FitS and FitSW. both times
it linted up the dash. WTH mang... then used my regular cal-interior
duster and everything got cleaned up.

i may not like this new duster afterall.

 

 

You shoulda just gotten the MF one! No lint and you can machine wash between uses!

Drew is uploading pictures of my new wheels as I type this...he's up here, so as far as I know he was not blowing you kisses this morning

I washed and Hydro'ed both MINIs and washed and Banana Glossed my dad's Jag this morning. I think that's enough detailing for me for today. Going to fireworks tonight!

 

Okay, Ken... I know you're not eating or sleeping well, just dying to see the changes for Bergey I've been talking about for the last week.

Okay, here's a recent pre-new-mod shot of Bergey, just so you remember he had the OEM 5-Star Wheels.



Those wheels and tires are going to be his winter shoes now.

For the good-weather months...





Not the best photos. It was cloudy all during our club event today. I'll get some better shots in the next couple of days.

Those are OZ Racing Superturismo WRC wheels in 16 x 7, 37mm offset with Nitto NeoGen tires in 205/50/16s. They got a good workout today and I liked the way they felt on the twisties.

 

Wow... I see while I was working on my pics and post, Mel's new wheel pics also got posted. VERY nice, Mel !! And they look a little easier to clean than mine.

 

And the pre-emptive white wheel excuses start Flat black wheels are the way to go!

 

Yeah Chris I would NOT want to clean those!

My 5-stars are going to be my winter wheels also...but they'll need snow tires!

 

Nowwwwwwwwwwwww, DREW......... you should know me better than THAT.

If I have to spend 30 minutes a day keeping the wheels clean, I will. Because... well, that's just who I am.

 

With white there's always just one more spot, then you find another.

You're running low dust pads too right?

 

If I didn't have low-dust pads, I wouldn't have gone with white wheels. THAT would have driven me nuts. I'm running Hawk ceramic pads on that MINI.

I put two good coats of Epic on them before they were installed, too.

And like I said, not running them in the winter months when the roads are messy and full of salt.

 

Niiiiiice wheels all around.

They all look fantastic.

I gotta pay some bills... then Blimey's getting a new pair of shoes... black, Enkei RPF1's to go with his new mean personality and his appetite for the track...

 

Next, we're getting a CVT flush! Yayyyyy!

 

Cool, Paul. I was anti-black wheels for the longest time but they're really starting to grow on me. Even tried to talk my other half into getting some on her PW Cooper, but no go.

And Mel... tranny flush... that's the gift that keeps on giving. Sweeeeeet.

 

CR&PW&JB- wooo supertourismos! nice wheels indeed.

ML- dang, those are shiny wheels. looks good on your PW. yah, the JB MCS i saw this am was definitely not motoron's. the one i saw, i think, was tim's. he had the red toe hook which i think I sold him.


man, everyone's getting new wheels. i need to get a new set of wheels too.
oh wait, i already did earlier this month for my FitS...
