Thank you everyone for all that you did today this was a big deal for my Squadron and the Base even if they did not seem to be in our business they were very much aware of what we were doing. For those that were unable to attend you were missed things always go better with more then one or two Mini's together. The link to the album is as follows http://gallery.me.com/john.suzie/100112 and if your having difficulty use the email option and simply send an email with the pictures attached no subject or text is required as nobody will see the words to john.suzie-903@post.me.com

MidCal Mini thanks for visiting the South Valley. I will work on setting this up again in the spring time.

John

Looks like you guys had a great time & I'm sorry to have missed such an awesome day! A spring photo session would be wayyy cool!

Dr.Steve, how're we looking on our deadline? I've gotta set up rides to work since the Audi's being used. Lemme know.

I drove it this morning and the limp mode problem seems to be gone. Come pick it up.

Not yet, drive your MINI first so we can make sure we've cured the existing problems.

Kinda mean looking I think? I like it. This statement is nice, "Compact dimensions, perfect axle load distribution and a low centre of gravity offer ideal conditions for enhancing the agility typical of MINI to a level never seen before."

The two outside sections, the inside I left alone so I can block the ceiling from above.

It does, along with the head job. The MINI should arrive via flatbed on Thursday. Maybe we can dump the sawdust in the cylinders as a colonic? Somehow I have a feeling that it would increase carbon buildup, not decrease it, and do nothing for the stripped sparkplug threads.

Sounds like fun want to start early? Also I had a 2005 IB and White on base that wanted to know where to get service done. He has 25 miles left till his next service is due.
