I'm In - how do i add the Badge to my Sig - save it off the page and create a logo - i'll look around ! ( does it come in Car color ? ))

Thanks

 

I just added the one at the bottom of the first post to your sig. Currently that's the only one available.

 

Holly Crap there it is !
Gall Darn - the Magic of the Inenet !

( thanks Dave )

 

I'm all ready to bat for the team at tomorrows Autocross! Here are my "unofficial" graphics that I cut myself with my mini vinyl cutter, just finished last night.

 

Looking good.

Hopefully my magnetics get here today. :impatient

 

My helmet (which i ordered a week ago) still hasn't arrived for this sunday's autocross. Looks like I'm borrowing my friend's spare helmet again

Definitely gonna go out again tomorrow morning to represent for Justacooper. Hopefully the track has less straights this time

 

I hear yeah.

I'm hoping this autocross has a slalom. The last one the L.A. chapter put on didn't have one, and the MINI is just so good in the transitions, it really wants a slalom.

 

The mail just came

I'm straightening them out now from being rolled up during shipping.


As you can see from the picture, I actually have 3 instead of 2. So if anyone wants to buy the third one off of me, drop me a PM.

 

Those are cool! If I autocrossed on a more regular basis, I'd call dibs.

I'm also diggin' your vintage stove -- looks like a late 40s/early 50s O'Keefe & Merritt.

Good luck tomorrow!

You're good. It is. Not sure what model/year though.

 

Yeah...I'd know those ***** anywhere.

 

Hmmm I WANT!! but i kinda want two (I'm a sucker for symmetry)

 

Yeah, my only thought on that is that it might work on the hood (I think it's too tall to fit on the hatch) OR I may consider getting three more made up so that I could sell two pairs.

I'll take some pictures of them on the car tomorrow.

 

cool

Any reccomendations on magnetic numbers?

I thought these would be nice: http://www.rallydecals.com/catalog/p...c938245add0e9e

Do you think its a good idea to pick a set of these up? I plan on doing atleast 4-7 more autocrosses before fall...and that price is pretty nice

 

Update on our L.A. BMWCCA Autocross held on Sunday.

We had 4 MC and 11 or 12 MCS in two different classes (4 cylinder BMW stock and 4 cylinder BMW mod).

I don't have the official times, but here was the placing for the awards

A class (including MC)
1) Dave in a MC - 63.4
2) Jerry (goaljnky) in a MCc - 63.6
3) a BMW at 66 and change


B class (including the MCS)

1) Rory - MCS (in the 57's as I recall)
2) Matt from Mininuts - MCS (in the 59's as I recall)
3) an EB/W MCS driven by an employee of h-sport (I forget his name, my apologies) - In the 61's

From the times discussed at the event, I would think that the final results will show Jerry and I finishing ahead of the remaining 8 or 9 MCS's.

Our L.A. BMWCCA was impressed with the MINI turnout at this event and at the past event, so they have decided to make a MINI class for future events (all the MINIs lumped into one class... regardless of mods ). I suppose that is a good thing in the big picture, but it will mean the MC's will have to be a little cleaner and fight a little harder.

I believe the MC is capable of being competitive for the trophies in an all MINI class, just maybe not for the very top place (there is one very well driven MCS on racing slicks that is competitive for the overall top time of day that is going to be very hard to beat in a MC... at least that's my opinion).

I'll try to post up some pictures tonight from the event.

 

That does look like a good price. Probably better than a local sign shop could give you, because they usually have a minimum charge to do the work (my experience anyway). If you wanted to go with a custom designed number plate though, I would talk to a sign shop (something like sign-a-rama) as they can do nice work with vinyl on magnetics for not too much more than the pricing in your link.

 

Our official results have posted. In this event the MC's and MCS's were in the different classes, but in future events we'll be in the same class.

Here are Sunday's L.A. BMWCCA autocross results reshuffled as though all the MINIs had been in the same class

57.965 Rory (rory) MINI Cooper S
59.574 Matt (camelpilot) MINI Cooper S
60.112 Aaron (from h-sport) MINI Cooper S
63.403 Dave MINI Cooper - Team Justacooper
63.618 Jerry (goaljnky) MINI Cooper - Team Justacooper
64.481 Charlie (madhatter) MINI Cooper S
67.331 (official) / 64.843 (unofficial) Richard MINI Cooper - Team Justacooper
67.502 Matthew H. MINI Cooper S
67.854 Mark O. MINI Cooper S
68.930 Teresa (little egg) MINI Cooper S
69.748 Robert (rameeti) MINI Cooper S
70.011 Joseph A. MINI Cooper S
70.863 Vanessa (mytoy) MINI Cooper
71.768 Bob (Recoop) MINI Cooper S
72.913 Steve (supergimp) MINI Cooper S

 

Very good. Congrats to Dave and all!

 

yah Sign-a-rama hooked me up with all of my sponsorship decal vinyls for the outside of my cooper....great place

I wish my auto-x venues posted the results as quickly as yours did. I still havent seen last weeks

 

hey boys, can i join team justacooper? been reading the site for some time, but only now just got around to registering and posting (learned most of what i wanted to know from using the search option). I would also like to say that i can well represent team justacooper, i went out on a mini adventure a week ago, out of 5 coopers (and a vet and ferrarri for that matter) i had the only non s there, and one of them wanted to know what i had done to my car cause it was running fast (i even had time to do a three point turn and wait for them to arrive after we finished one stretch of twisties i was leading them threw), so i dont think iwill let yous down!

thanks Beecher

 

Great showing! Way to represent!!!

 

Those are some great results. Congratulations and keep up the good work.

 

This weekend, I'll be going at it again with my local BMWCCA chapter and will post results once I get 'em!

 

Beecher: I'll add you to the list when I'm done with this post.

Here's a picture of my door magnet on the car from Juan (blacknblue)

 

The results from this weekend:

03 MCS- 30.874
04 MCS- Rick (rednwhitecooper) running his 19%+3% pulleys: 31.505
02 MCS- 32.582
02 MC - Andrew (Me): 32.717 Justacooper
02 MCS- 34.101

Considering i'm just begining...I'm pretty close on the tails of those MCS's
