First MINI Meet (pics inside, 56k warning!)

Hi Gang,

I attended my first MINI meet today after having owned two MCS's in the past 8mos. and had a fun time cruising around Marin County, chatting with the other owners and seeing alot of neck craning going on.

I'm sure people will post more pics up (saw alot of fancy cameras) but here's a few I took:

BK in the A.M.:











Ex-nuclear NIKE missile base:





















Some classics also enjoying the great day out:



5min stoplight tunnel before my departure :



Thanks to the Redwood Empire for organizing it, great instructions! See y'all at the next meet.

Very nice pics. I saw two items I am expecting on my new 05 MCS. One is the Aero kit on my PS car and the other which I think I see on a car there. The R99 wheels. But I'm not sure if those are what I see on that one PS MCS or not. Can anyone concure?

I forget what brand the wheels are but they were not the OEM R99s:



The exhaust with the holes around it was a Supersprint, sounded GREAT!!!
