Henry,

bring it on CD or something to the office today, and hand it off to me, if needed. I have ample server space and can host it there, too.

Henry, up and to the right is written Sidebar; this will enable the menu to show along the left side. From there is Add Item. Try that. At least you were able to see the Nürburgring snaps, right?

Cheers!!

Henry, I saw the three snaps you posted, thanks!

As for the video, dunno what to say. As abu can attest, I'm still sorting through this whole blog-thingy (comments still broke). Unless there's a huge distance between you and the ISP, the only other suggestion would be an FTP upload. Might be too complex, though. Your call cuz I'm game for it and I know that works because that's how I upload!

Thanks again, dude!

Cheers!!

Behold, the video. Right-click and save as.

(It begs to be remixed, with new fake car sounds and new comic monologue!)

Going to the shop tomorrow for a few parts to be fitted.

1. New rotors and pads (Power Slot and Hawk) from Custom MINI.
2. MM 22mm Sway Bar and Front reinforcement bar.
3. Oil Change
4. Tensioner bar if time permits.

Should be fun!

Bought from Mini Madness but it is outsourced from another company and then tagged with their name. I can post what it is later tonight as I am not certain.

OK,

Brakes PITA!!!! Three went well, but the last fought me a little. However, they are on. The sway bar was also PITA but once on is nice....

Overall the parts are awesome and I am one happy camper.

I gotta do rotors and pads this weekend. Mine should go easier because over here they understand when I swear at them in English.

LOL, I was cursing the install of the sway bar as well. Brakes are awesome!!! Thanks to Brad at CustomMINI...

Also, the from brace and sway bar are AWESOME as well. The car was squirrly during acceleration but not sits solid on the road. IMHO these are must haves if you are a spirited driver.
