Been a while...

Been a while since I've posted here; been busy with many things. I had some free time today so I decided to go out and practice with my new rig that I built. Very pleased with the result. Here's a "behind the scenes photo" and the finished product.

There 16s with 195/55/16 tires. When these go bad I might step down to a 50 or 45 to lower it just a tad more.

Purchased a used 2011 Cooper S with 28k miles on it. Best and most fun car I've ever owned.

These are the last pics of Tackleberry looking like this. Monday (6/3), it goes into the body shop to have the new DuelL AG body kit painted and installed.

Nice little stretch of road. I was stationed there for 5 years earlier in my career. Brings back some memories.

If you're getting a new body kit what are you going to do with the front splitter & rear diffuser?
