That was me, It was top secert


I did not think anyone would see it. I am half way done with my graphics.
Wait till you see when its done.
The dealership P&W MINI will be going down to Charleston , WV Thursday afternoon along with Grahams Race Car to meet at CATO PARK for the Movie at 6:30, along with the grill Car to cook for everyone, MINIUSA updated their info and the check in is now at the CATO park at that time!
I will join the MINI Grill at that time. But Iam going down through Ohio and the MINI Club of Pittsburgh will be going down through washington, PA which I think thats where they will meet then drive due south.
Check out www.minitakesthestates.com and watch the Pittstopmini.org for updates.
If you are going please tell the dealer or contact our folks at Pittstopmini.org, or put your name down here on NAM.
Can't wait for the big Party in WV..I think it will be the IJob movie.
