I'm itching to try those hood louvers, too. Want to be the guinea pig? They're just waiting to be sold or installed.

Awsome guys, you have a customer here. Too bad I spent all of my money for now, on a Long Travel Suspension for my ATV. I think the suspension on the MINI is next and maybe an intake. But that will have to be after the summer.

You have to stop spending money on your off-roading. Whoops! I spent $350 last month on my F250 4x4 suspension. Should of spent it on the MINI.

Why Not Do The Louver The Old Fashioned Way And Get The Hood Punched With As Many As You Want, Where You Want. There Are Companies That Will Punch Louvers In Whatever You Want. It Would Look Much Cleaner Than Cutting A Hole. You Would Just Need A Paint Job On The Hood Or Fender.

And our now annual "Brad's Excellent Off-Road Adventure" run became a reality. (off-roading optional)

I'm not in a hurry, so it may still be available later. It will be hard to sell it until I'm back from MTTS, anyway, and that's well into September.

Have you found any twisties yet?

I see reading your posts that they aren't as wild back there as we are here?

From what I have seen, no. They do seem to plan alot, but because they are so big, they just don;t seem as cohesive as MidCal...

Another thing that bugs me is that most all of the MINIs I have seen don;t wave. None of them do. I saw someone who was driving a moded MINI, but i wasn;t in mine, so no good. O well... It will be good to be back with the crazy MINI people at the end of this month.

I have to admit, MidCal is one of the craziest clubs around.

I have a feeling the reputation will be in full swing by the time we meet up with you.
I found out that Keith, the crazy one with the silver classic, is going all the way.

Due to all the prep work we have to do and the time for the trip, Steve and I aren't doing the Historics. We are driving up early Monday morning.
Michele and Robert are doing the whole thing along with some other members.

I don't know how we are going to be done in time. Only 18 days to go and I need to put your MINI back together (with mods) and turn mine into a Cosworth.

You are coming up on Saturday, I believe. Please bring Steve and Chris' intercooler and Ken's STB. Also the CC machine; we have to test it out.
