Hi all,

I'm buying an '03 MCS, that has had some updates, including a 15% pully, mini mania lowering springs, and NRP exhaust. I'll be picking the car up next Tues in Charlotte and driving home to CT via Nashville and Pittsburgh. I Can't wait!! New toys....
Its great to see a site with such a following and overwhelming amout of info. This will make things so much more fun. Be "talkin" to ya soon.

Welcome to NAM! I think you may want to add the Dragon to your trip home.

 

Welcome to NAM! Happy motoring on your return trip.

You wouldn't by any chance have bought the car on eBay from a "professional driver" would you?

 

No bought from a friend who had 2 and is keeping the lower miles car. I think he advertised it here, don't think it was on eBay.

 

I was just wondering if you had been the high bidder on Dale Jr.'s MINI that was on eBay.

 

As far as doing the Dragon, a friend from Indy who's into Subaru's told me about that strech of road and its something I need to do. But work schedule dosn't permit it on this trip. It also sounds like I'd be better off with some seat time to really enjoy the ride. Next time...

 

Welcome to NAM, Ray...make yourself at home. I'm sure you'll have a blast w/ your new MINI!!

 

Thanks for the suggestion, my work schedule got changed a day and I ran/rode the tail today. I hadn't had my car 24hrs before my first run. The only warm up was the Blue Ridge from Asheville. What a Blast! I'm still smilin. Traffic was an issue but I did manage a 75mph blast on one of the "straights". THANKS again,
Ray

 

Welcome and congrats!

We need some help getting more enthusiasm into the New England contingent!

We're in Western Mass and want to play!

Gsald to hear you're loving your MINI; it usually finds a way to put a smile on your face everyday

 

Howdy, Have a good time here, everyone is so nice and helpful. What color is it?

 

I swear I posted a hello on this thread already...maybe there's another Charlotte person.
I lived in Wilmington for over 11 years. I miss the Carolinas.

Anywho, Welcome to the cult enjoy your stay. Would you like some cool-aid?
