who else here is in Columbia SC? I recently purchased an '02 electric blue mcs, I was interested in meeting up with the other local members or anyone around here.

 

Hi,

m2c2 has about 6 members in the Columbia area. You can contact our local VP there, columbia@m2c2.org

 

I am in Columbia.

 

I'm nowhere near Columbia, but I thought I'd just say welcome anyway! :smile:

 

I live in Lexington, but work in Columbia. If you see an all black MCS with white decals on every piece of fixed glass it is probably me.

 

I am in Chapin....

I know on Saturday nights behind sonic in Irmo a goodly number of all types of tuner and wanna be tuner cars show up just to visit....

Anyone else want to make a run to the Vista?

say hey and let me know....

 

What's a tuner?

 

Tuner: noun Person, group, or semi-organized group or company that installs, sells, or discusses shiny, loud, or expensive car parts that are usually bolted onto Japanese, European, and some domestic sports and compact vehicles in the attempt to gain additional speed, horsepower, or status amongst their peers. See also: JDM, Own3d, Supah Wing, 20's, Bling-Bling, 4 inch drop, NAWZ, slower than stock, Boosted, Fart pipe.

 

In other words, those of us that have Modded our MINIs could be considered tuners......

tirewarmer if you have yahoo... say hello to me there.... whskysouth....

 

"...installs, sells, or discusses shiny, loud, or expensive car parts..."

Well, that leaves me out. Loud noises and excessive bling frighten Tweety. You youngsters have fun though.

 

Tweety,
Come out and join us! We will have a great time.....

 

Agile, SoCar, Tirewarmer

What do you see we get ourselves and collective families and go to dinner one night just so everyone can meet?

Anyone would be more than welcome to attend. I just know the ones I mentioned above are local.

Wings and Ale off Bush River, Flight Deck in Lexington, Smokey Bones in Harbison...... Just some places to offer up.....

'02 EB/W 17" SSR-GT1, Helix 15%, H-Sport swaybar, H&R Springs, Alta Blue CAI, 100K+

 

That sounds awesome to me. Let's work something out. I don't really have much family here to speak of. I'm 20. haha. I mean, my mom likes my choice in car...

 

Hey Guys

I know that Mick is working on a MINI drive for the Columbia Chapter. He was scouting out the location yesterday. Mick should be posting details soon. The drive will include several chapters. Details coming soon.....

If you all meet for dinner on Mondays or Wednesdays I would be glad to join in. Work has me in Columbia on Mondays and sometimes on Wednesdays. I am driving about 800 miles a week on the MINI now. I am trying to catch up with Jack.

George

 

I could be in.

BTW - I saw a Mini in the Vista last week, with what looked to be a little tuned. Lightweight wheels, etc. It was (If I remember correctly) Indi Blue and White.

If that is any of you guys, or whoever else is around the vista. If you see and all pepper white, R90s, tint, and driving lamps, dat's me. My business is located right down in the middle of the Vista.

Later

really? I'm through there all the time I haven't seen you. I'm usually pretty observant when it comes to minis! haha

 

Do I hear "road trip?"

I might consider a run to Columbia for dinner.. Maybe a visit to the zoo first? I know Tweetie's Mom and I have discussed it as a motoring event for the Greenville Chapter..

Hey you Columbia guys, when is the best season for visiting Columbia Zoo? I heard the landscaping there is awesome!

 

We go to the zoo all the time.
I would say, not season, but heat....

Hey Agile. Describe your mini, anything to look out for?
I have seen several Electric Blues lately. As a matter of fact, I saw one Friday, parked in front of Groucho's on Forest Drive.

You may have not seen mine, due it's ghostly appearances.
It's like a vapor. Moves very quickly, and darts around a lot....

SoCar S

--- Oh yeah, my business is right across the street from *****'s on the lady street side.

 

I am up for Flight Deck. I have a pretty busy schedule between work and autocross/track events on the weekends, but if you decide on a dat I'll try to be there.

Joe

 

Hey Joe, tell me about the autocross stuff you are doing - is it local?

I have been thinking of getting into it.

-- I say we all meet down around *****'s or something after work one day.
(Just not Wednesdays)

SoCar S

 

There are plenty of local events. I've been doing events all over the country this year. I'll tell you all you'll want to know about autocross at our get together.

 

not much to look out for- it's stock, blue w/ white roof. two tone seats interior. I'm downtown a lot, 5 points, vista, campus area. Let's meetup sometime

 

I'm also interested in gearing my car toward autocross. never been to one though. don't know much about it. haha.

 

*****'s would be great afterwork...

I am on the road for the next two Mondays. Lets shoot for 22. This would allow George to join us if he is so inclined.

Let me know what you all think.....

 

I usually work nights, I'll see what day I can take off.
