Great idea... we'd just be sure that they don't have any jurisdictional agreement with NC. Otherwise I can just picture them pulling us all over for an illegal U turn or something

Note to mods - this is NOT a "political" post... Completely non-partisan.

Politicians suck.

Cause this, and VA traffic nannying, and most other such nonsense is purely political. The cops are only doing what the laws say, or what they're given funding to do...

Frickin money grubbing power mad robber barons imposing their idiotic worldview on us and using our freaking paychecks to fund their twisted game of "Life". Fire'em all.

Considering the recent talk of enforcement on the dragon. A poster showing a MINI crossing the yellow line does not seem appropriate.

I give you, the artwork for MSSD shirts, hooides, and boxer shorts.


(And I was kidding about the boxer shorts, of course. Unless there's a huge demand I don't know about! )

"That's what I'm talkin' bout. I'm out making some sweet moolah with Uncle Rico....." Yep, shirts look great, and I can't wait to buy a few. The infamous artist who did it is AMAZING!
Are we still okay with long sleeve and hoodies? Is there enough demand for short sleeve shirts? And the front logo will be in the middle.

Yeah, I'm already thinking I need to make room in my closet. My favorite season, Fall. My favorite car, uh, my MINI. A shirt with both on there? PRICELESS!
As of now, Long-Sleeve shirts will be about $18, hoodies, about $25. Short sleeve shirts are about $15. These prices are for up to 71. If we order more than 72 get a better deal.

All my MINI shirts are my favorite shirts... they get first priority and extra care... I even had to buy special hangars for them... OCD.. I don't think so...

Craig really does ROCK. We don't tell that him enough. He's like the MINI community secret weapon... Few other folks have had such an impact on this lunacy we all love... It's really amazing how he can keep cranking out insanely good designs...

I did send him an e-mail telling him how much we appreciated all he does, and how totally awesome his artwork was.....

Any pickers what to bring your axe and have a jam session? Nothing like fall in the Blue Ridge and acoustic music- they go together like peas and carrots!

MINIANNI might join you!

As far as photographing this event. I plan on Friday evening being in one of the curve areas on the Dragon shooting everyone. I do have one request, Will someone drive my MINI a bit so I can get some shots of it? I'll do this again on Saturday for everyone and post the images the next week for everyone to tell me what picts they want.

All 2002-2004 owners that want the brake light mod done, I have a few diodes left and will be happy to do it for free.

I'll also be bringing my black beltline tape for anyone that wants it done.

If there is anything else I can do, let me know. I can install bonnet and boot stripes too! You just have to bring them.
