After test driving both S and non-S it was a no brainer for me. Now that I have the pulley on I'm absolutely positive that I made the right choice. MC=fun, MCS=more fun, MCS + mods=cheap JCW

 

They are Dare X4, made in a limited 50 unit run especially for a group on Mini2 last year...49 of the sets were sold in England, I got the 50th shipped to me. So they're the real thing.

 

Yea I have heard of them.
Look Great

Want to add themselves to the Hot Orange Frapper!
We will not call you and ask if you want a credit card

We might ask for gas money occasionally.

Okay, just kidding!

We've got 16 people on the Frappr map, but I KNOW there are more than 16 Hot Orange MINI's out there.

 

More update on mods for Icarus. I uploaded the MTH Tuner File that takes the hardware mods (pulley, cai, plugs) into consideration. I can tell that it really smoothes out the power delivery. It makes it easier to get the power to the ground. I'm probably going to dyno this Thur now that I've got the prequisite 500 miles on the file. I'll post the delta if there is one. It will interesting to see if there are any extra ponies. It feels like there are a few more. Regardless if there are, the delivery is very nice!

 

I added myself to the map- Ohio iz inna HOUSE!!

 

I'm in!

 

Welcome ImagoX and ONOFIVEO! Always good to see more Hot Orange on the roads.

Just for info, I posted on the Spotter Cards thread in Site Feedback with a design for a Hot Orange Spotter Card 'advertising' our Frappr map. Now I just have to find another Hot Orange MINI.

 

I was driving down the road the other day, and another orange Mini drove right up behind me. this was on 270 near the Dublin exit, in case that person makes their way in here and reads this- it was a woman with shortish hair. The car was, ironically, the one we looked at at the dealership and decided against (it had the Chrono pack which I don't like). She still had her temp tag on and everything. It must have looked hillarious to other people on the road.

 

in columbus yet and i am over there a couple times a year.
We need tags to put on MINI's to invite them to our clubs" Thats my MINI idea".. It should say "welcome to the club now motor over to NAM and find your Color Club then join their frappr"
Gabe could sell them like the grill badges!

 

I saw one in Florida. I cannot believe they're not on NAM. It was in Marco Island. They had the stickers on the side of the car like the old fighter pilots had. A cople of SUV's and other type cars. I'll try to post a link. We thought it was so funny I stopped my motorcycle and had my wife take a picture.

I found the picture and will attempt to post it to my gallery and link to this thread.

Note the stickers under the mirror...

 

What do you think about my Spotter Cards on the Spotter Card thread?

 

the thread

 

any HO's planning to attend the Minis in the Mountains at Copper Mountain in Colorado in August? i know of 4 others in denver but they rarely make any of the rides. i find myself not only representing local cabrios but also HOs at the club rides. would be nice to run into other HOs at Copper Mountain. saw about 4 others at Minis on the Dragon but didn't get a chance to visit. hope to see somebody there.

 

Unfortunately we can't make MITM this year, but are thinking about trying next year. We will be at MOTD 2007, so hopefully we can get together.

 

Are going to make it to the MTTS program?

 

We'll be there for the St Louis-Indy leg, and may try to join the group on the Nashville-St Louis part enroute.

 

i know of one ho from Denver that is going to be on the Albuquerque to Amarillo leg. can't vouch for any others though.
