We hope to resolve that issue in near future. :nod: If it helps, you can also send an email to:
secretary at pittstopmini.org.

To be honest, it was something I was going to bring up this weekend. As the "new guy on the block" I don't know that I feel comfortable nominating myself for the IT position...
..but I would love to volunteer my services to whomever assumes that role.
I feel fairly confident I have a few skills that may be of use ;)

Hey the MINI of sterling guys and DCMM will be at Summit Point (AutoX) , WV about two hours south of us. I will try to get some of the left overs to come our way. I think their is going to be alot of people that way due to the thread being a skicky
