So I went to Vegas last weekend...
.... and hooked up with the Sin City MINI Club. Now THOSE guys know how to have a good time. With only 2 days notice 8 other MINIs (~15 people) managed to join me for a RedRock run, and then after that we went to a bar and got pissed on big *** glasses of beer.
Apparently getting pissed is a regular occurence.
Why don't we have anything like that going on here??? Is it because L.A. is too big? Or not hot enough to drink out of 34ounces perhaps?? Or were those vegas people just crazy?
It would be nice if there was something similar to that around these parts, does anyone around the West La/South Bay/Hollywood/Santa Monica area feel the same way?
Someone should probably start something... like "The Westside Crips MINIs" or something.
. No, the name wont be THAT bad, but you get the idea.
Something small and crazy/fun, yet close knit. e.g. ...
- Not as broad as SCMM
- Friendly and cool like c3
(without the charity - because then it would be c3 x 2)
- Not as aggressive as TMMZ
- Not as old fashioned as MOALA
Does anyone know where I'm coming from?? Does a club that I just described even exist?
..... hold on lads, I have an idea.
Watch this space.
p.s. If anyone is interested in starting something and know what I mean, PM me.

I also went down to LV this past weekend.. I was surprised though that I didn't see any Mini's around. Maybe I should have stayed away from the strip... Before heading back up to the bay area, I even passed LA... I knew I was in LA since MINI's start appearing everywhere....
I should have hooked up w/ you guys and had a drive in Vegas... I wouldn't have liked it that much though since the temps were way up there....

Haha nice!!!! Uhm c3 without the charity?? LOL. Well most of our monthly get togethers aren't charity related--since these are more about building and maintaining friendships and our own MINI's. We're open to all kinds of things. A bunch of us went to Long Beach Aquarium last weekend, and we're going to be seeing King Tut just as MINI friends hanging out in another week. Today I did a private c3 detailing clinic for a couple new MINI friends that couldn't make my normal clinics on the weekends. 
Oh man I forgot the whole point of my post. I'm going to Vegas this weekend!!!! But I'm going with my wife and taking her parents--so the wife is driving her Murano---no MINI for me.

Fool, you better recognize. 
Seriously, though... too aggressive? I mean, we're a bunch of hardasses, no doubt--but if anyone likes to have a good time, it's TMMZ.
Bring the Guinness! Er, and some Jameson too, if you'd be so kind.

I don't really have anything against TMMZ - you guys are a great club, I enjoyed your TV special, but...... I used the term "aggresive" because

Edited Out because it instigates Aggression.
. Something I dont want between MINI Clubs.****************
You have some really cool members, and charateristics, but some people prefer to be in a club that's different than yours (and others).
I have alot of respect for TMMZ, I hope none of it is lost in this New Club process.

I've heard tales of (and seen evidence of):
- you guys not been very welcome to newcomers.

- tmmz being biased towards members depending on how long they've been with you.
- you guys not liking other types of cars coming to your meets, especially if they are faster cars.
- you guys taking stuff too seriously
- you guys rule the canyons

A MINI Pub Club would be FUN!!! We have a great assortment of pubs in the greater-Los Angeles region, too! There is room for a variety of MINI clubs! And racing, charitable, fun-run inter-club events can be planned, too! Camel...you have a PM.

Now, I ask you: Does this look like an overly-aggressive team to you?

Sounds like a great idea. Count me in.
Oh, I wanted to Thank Octane Guy for teaching the private C3 clinic yesterday. My car looks and feels great. (I swear it's so smooth, I musta gained at least 1 hp...
....Just kidding guys)
