I am more than ready to make any contributions that I can :smile:

Charleston is filled with Minis, so I cannot wait until we have a Mini Chapter here! Thumbs UP! Let's get Motoring!

I still have to turn around and check my own car out, and I've had it since May!

Mini On! Charleston!

Glad you Charleston guys got inspired.Lets plan to meet next year about the same time. We will be doing some things with our British Motor Car Club at Myrtle beach in the New year. I want to see some of your Charleston and Savannah Minis up here at Myrtle Beach. We might put on a poker run or an SCCA solo2 type event. That is where you and your navigator run for specific points and correct time. They are lots of fun. Best wishes to all you guys and Happy Holidays. Keep pushing on that M2C2 chapter down their. Derek

Yeah, I almost suffered the same fate during the first three months of ownership.. She still gets the occasional bought of jealousy a year and a half later...

Guys and beautiful gals.... ( not that you guys are ugly, I'm just not gonna go there)

Lets not wait so long for another meet!?!? We should plan another one soon!

This time I promise not to speed off. I will at least block the oncoming traffic at the light for you all to pass!!!! Although it is so hard to resist the full extension of the gas pedal...
at least that is what I tell my wife everytime she hears the scream of the supercharger.....

You've got the start of it right there. Just figure out when you want to do and post a notice well in advance to give people time to plan for it. Be sure to keep an eye on the forums to avoid conflicting events in your area.:smile:

Yes Im ready to go Again and Merry Christmas

Great photo additions Bob from Lela. Im thinking about getting some radios so we can keep up with everybody next time. That Italian job thing through Charleston was fun. Well I hope everyone that was at the rally has a Merry Mini Christmas! Santa is bringing me a leather Mini Jacket and driving gloves. After that comes the British flag on the roof. Bye yall till next time Derek

We use FRS/GMRS radios on the official MINI channel 7 (subchannel 23 if everyone has radios with sub channels). That way everyone can join in in the conversation, and you don't have to dial a phone # while motoring.. You can get them relatively inexpensively at Wally world or Best Buy...

That should be channel 7, subchannel (aka privacy channel) 21. This is the
official MINI frequency nationwide.

Chris thanks for help with the cai. But i think we need to meet more often like every 2-3 months and all have stickers made {like the nam one} that say something about are little charleston team and make a site {i can kind of do this im not to good but alright}. So what do you guys think? If someone draws a design my dad and I will order them? So lemme get some ideas and we can work on more metts and a site !

Lil' Jack.

No problem Jack!

I like the idea of meeting more often, it should be done!

As far as the stickers are concerned I like the idea but am not a graphic artist so am no good at that! Also I think myminicoopah has her own site which we may consider being part of unless you are thinking just a Charleston mini site? Keep in mind we have the m2c2 site and logo already established (although I couldn't find a place on the car I would like the their sticker so I am torn)

Anyway I hop everyone has a great holiday season, happy motoring

Chris
