So it looks like the GP count is 6 or 7, plus 3 or 4 Minis that are up for this run. Should be tons of fun!

Sorry to thread jack, but are any of you Phoenix area GP's interested in helping Linear Logic, the makers of the Scan Guage, figure out what the proper ECU code would be for reading the engine oil temps on our R53s?

PM or email me if you and your car are available for their engineers to hook up their equipment to figure this one out for us Scan Guage owners. They say they just need a test mule to read the ecu.

Thanks!

do we get a scan gauge for letting them use our car as a test mule?

Local GP's, thank you for letting my JCW partake in the fun today. And Tanner, thanks for inadvertently starting this get together and thanks to Matt for being the organized one
I had a great time and it was good to finally put MAKO through the paces...I think she did very well for her 1st time out.
Sorry for not saying bye to everyone, I didn't realize everyone was going into town...and i had to get back to prep for my biz trip tomorrow.

Thanks again to everyone...you were all a pleasure to meet. Look forward to the next meet.

Looks like it would have been fun. The gorillas would have liked going along.

Great run! Fun meeting new Mini owners. Let's keep in touch! If you are FB, send me a pm. Had a fantastic time! Well, with the exception of my ticket...just goes to show, doesn't matter where you are in the pack, you can still contribute to the State revenue fund (I was in the middle)!

Sorry we had to dip out early! Made it to our appointment just in time...and very hungry!
