Hey, it was a lot of work to dig that pit so I'll be damned if I'll fill it back in. Come on up and we'll plumb Blake into your CAI with the extra parts; he should be good for at least a few hp.

Not much. We torqued all our denso spark plugs and finished breaking up the concrete for the pit.

I installed my long lost M7-TSB before beer and donuts. It was mostly a maintenance and check day, plus I got some free labor in my pit. We only drank a case of Sierra Nevada and didn't eat many donuts. We went to our Mod Day restaurant (El Cid) and excercised our jaws jabbering all day. It was a fun day.

Edit: I forgot, rear endlinks installed on Brad's MINI.

i went to the two day San Diego BMWCCA autocross this weekend. Yesterday was run by classes for placing, today was just for fun. San Diego BMWCCA throws all of the MINIs in one class regardless of mods (including r-compounds) so I wound up being the only MC with 5 MCS's and took 3rd place on the day.

I'm in a similar boat with SCCA right now since I did removed the MC spoiler that I had to get with my silver roof and installed the aero kit spoiler. BMWCCA/PCA don't care though, and they have field restrictions with more runs during the day, so for now I'd rather be doing their events anyway.

I would too. It's a shame the SCCA is the only club that puts on regular autocrosses up here.
