Nope, we want to start doing something on our own, every month like clockwork. 3rd Sunday of the Month, 1pm is the plan for now.

There was some good shots in there, brings back some really fond memories about my kids, so precious(there's not an emoticon that represents it).

Big Congrats Man!! Get some sleep while ya can . If you can make it great! if not, we totally understand. We just need some more people. Chad and I were brainstorming the other day, maybe we can get some business cards made up with a link to the club forums on it and we could start taggin MINIs we see with them and see if we can't get some more locals involved, then maybe we can start to get some Dealer involvement (M2C2 does ALOT with Hendrick up in Charlotte, so they are willing to do stuff). We just need to step it up some with our own involvement imho, (show up @Dealer arranged events, arrange our own events, show involvements, autox, etc). Just some thoughts, but I'm sure we could make it work.

Thats a great idea, theres plenty of minis i see downtown and while they usually dont look modded for the most part, it seems like theres some good people driving them and taking care of them. Leaving cards on windows would be great for when you see one and dont see the driver.

Chad, you should be dragging more people in considering how many you see on a daily basis. Head recruiter status!!

and yes, i think we should just get some more stuff going on with our club along the lines that Mike stated and have a more fluid network for things. I know i wasnt at the last show at trident but i would hope we can pull together and get some numbers higher than what weve got now. I think that since ive been here weve only pulled 5-6 at most, for that Patriots Point meet, and one of them wasnt even from SC proper.

Man, I don't know how much more I can talk up the MINI's...LOL, doesn't my enthusiasm show . I don't know how much I want to involve my dealer in this. I'm already there enough, and we all have more than enough to do while were there. I think we can stand alone, form a club(like we already have but improve upon it), and do the things that we are talking about and have so many MINIs that we have to have reservations. I for one am pledging right now to have the 1st annual Lowcountry MINIs club Barbeque.....I'll be doing the Ribs. BYOB, and a small side dish. MINI's Only......Date to be set at a later date.

I was kidding about that. I didnt want you to be advertising on their dime. Just found it humorous in terms of exposure to minis on a daily basis.

Good idea Jack. If you want to send me your mockup, i can print and cut a bunch too and get on distributing.

Whats up with photo night these days?

I will be there, so plan on seeing my MCS there with either the chrome aftermarket wheels that are on her now, or possibly even the factory s-lites that littlehandegan and i are gonna paint and put on her. get ready folks, because my mini is about to undergo a full black-out exterior upgrade process. every chrome piece will soon be black. this also includes the new ALTA Stealth R53 Exhaust Kit I am planning on getting, which is Matte Black, and is gonna sound and look awesome. I will keep everyone updated, and I can't wait for the hooters meet!

I'll try and show up....

Nick, I owe you an apology for not calling you back. Too much going on and even if there were 40 hours in a day I still couldn't get it done. I will try and call you later in the week when I am not going insane.
