I didn't realize they were on the same day. I'll have to talk to Cristina to see what we're gonna do now.

From the Facebook page of the girl racing Pikes Peak. Not sure when she's talking about but if you're interested...

"Savannah Rickli Is looking forward to being at Race Central Radio and TVs Canadian Grand Prix Viewing Party. It's at Funugyz Sports Bar and Pub- 17785 Cottonwoid Drive, Parker, CO. I will be there with the Mini of Loveland Mini Cooper signing autographs and enjoying the race! Hope to see you there!"

Yes, "South" refers to Denver and the surrounding areas...Parker, Aurora, Centennial, Colorado Springs, Peyton, etc...

"North" is more of the surrounding cities north of Denver including areas such as Westminster, Boulder, Louisville, Longmont, Loveland, Fort Collins (aka northern Colorado)...even up to Cheyenne.

Sometimes it's hard for the "north" and "south" to meet up all the time so that's the reason for the "north" and "south" threads...but anyone is welcome to cross the borders.

I just returned from Mississippi, and from what I saw, you aren't the only one confused!!

Joking aside, I did enjoy my trip "Down South". Way different pace of life.

question. So seeing how the mini standard is the same exact engine as the S 1.6L S. So can i put a supercharger on it and put the S hood on the car and the intakes and what not on it and turn it into an S? or would i have to get a 6 speed getrag transmission as well?

I know the S hood will fit perfectly and the bumper and has more room to have a ram air system than the S but is it possible to convert the standard to an S with just putting an supercharger in it?

No, the internals are actually different. The block is the same, but that is it. Different compression, etc...
