2006 BJCCA Barrett-Jackson Classic Car Auction

I will be, once again this year flying out to Scottsdale, AZ. I was wondering 2 things.

1) When I went to the auction there was a MINI cooper S and it had a single tip exhaust that was large enough to fit a softball into, IN THE PARKING LOT NOT AT THE AUCTION!!!!!!!. If by some chance you own that car, either reply or pm me. You single handedly made me want a mini cooper.

2) is anyone going to go to the auction this year? ill be there thursday through sunday. I love in ohio so i cant stay too long.......

I've only seen it on TV and everytime I do, I can't help but get depressed by not being able to afford every damn one of those cars.

Slightly of topic. Little Egg and I were just walking the dog and the neighbor has a brand new Ford GT in the driveway. Wasn't there yesterday. THE BASTARD!!!

How about a Ford GT and a Z06. I have to be honest. I hate Ford. But the GT is one Ford I wouldn't mind owning.

I will be at the auction.

It wasn't my MINI, but I it was a B&B single tip system. B&B designed it for us and we were have that system on some 15 spec MINI races car we built. A few of those system have made it on to street cars, but isn't that popular.

The drivers position on the Ford GT is one of the best feeling cars I have ever been in.
