New Owner

I am so glad to see a club in Chattanooga.
I just purchased a 2004 BRG S, with a 15% reduction pully, CAI, Sharked ECU and oil catch can.
I would love to get with some people that like to work on their own cars and learn from them. (Have done a lot of work on other cars.)

Feel free to PM me if you would like a wrench assistant.

Jeff

Welcome to Scenic City MINIs! Resipsamcs and I occasionally work on our cars. His is the DS/W MCS with mods, and mine is the CR/UJ JCW. Just recently we installed a nice Autometer Boost Gauge in his car. Turned out really great. After we finished up we took his car out for a spin. Since it was dark, I noticed right away that his headlights were very poorly aimed. We found a nice straight road and corrected that little problem... Now, I think he likes his lights better than the new Boost Gauge!

Anyway, we do some occasional work to our cars.

Resipsamcs (Len) here - I have the DS/W MCS with some mods and black wheels. I consider my car to be a work in progress. My son Davis goes to just about every MINI and car related function with me. Rawhyde (Craig) is a great guy who has helped me out alot with working on the car, as I can do some basic stuff but am a novice with more involved jobs. I live on Lookout Mountain and work in Ringgold.

I attended a Phil Wickes Driving School and an Atlanta Region SCCA Autocross School, and would really like to see autocross return to Chattanooga - apparently a site was lost about two years ago and no replacement site has been secured.

Nice pictures Clint!

Davis and I are always up for MINI and/or car related events.

Welcome Jeff, It looks like the number of MINIs in Chattanooga is increasing everyday, I passed 4 or 5 on the road last week alone. Clint can't tell how much I appreciated you sharing the photos of our last meet, I forgot to bring my camera that day...oops.

I'm game! When and where would be good for everybody? Do you want to do another Sunday afternoon? Have a drive somewhere? Just meet?
Let's hear what you'd like to do.
We need a Chattanooga pulley party!
A request from SCM member!!

Hello everyone!

My wife and I are proud new owners of two MCS's!

I drive a 2006 DS/B MCS with the Sport, Premium and Cold Weather packages. Purchased on 12/9/05

Samantha drives a 2006 SB/S MCSa with the Checkmate Package. We bought her car on 1/29/06 after she fell in love with my car!

We can't wait to meet all of the SCM members! It looks like we'll have to miss MOTD this year becuase Samantha is graduating from UTC that weekend.
