So being a huge mini nerd my family had an easy time shopping for me this Christmas. Wonderful gifts included:

-outmotoring.com "its not cute its mean" t-shirt
-mini cooper r/c car
-alta rear sway bar
-alta V2 control arms
-alta 2% overdriven lightened crank pulley

Anyone else receive any mods under the tree this year??

I got my nephew an MCS R/C car... he loves it. I have to admit I was a little jealous. If only it hadn't been the last one!

Ohhhhh, that's what I need. The DT bypass valve. I think Santa might have made the wrong stop this year. Why don't I just give you my address and you can send that to me.

In this current apocalyptic economy, you'd be wise to SAVE it. But then again, why would you want to that, when you've got a MINI to spend it on !!!

Good for you all!

My treat was just seeing my MINI. I've been abroad for about 2 months, and before that, was gone a good part of the summer...

I think I'll order some more poly bushings... but after I re-install the battery and go for a nice drive!
