I must say that this 100k has been alot of fun. In the two years and 5 months that is took me to get to 100k I have done alot of fun things with MY MINI. This is the best car a person can have.
Here is a few things I have done.
1. Joined a car club.
2. Help started a second car club.
3. Build a website about MY Mini and the things I do with my mini.
www.magicmini.com
4. Drove to 5 states I have never been to before.
5. Started autocrossing as a hobby.
6. Met many new people and made alot of friends.
7. Design a logo for shirts (
www.cooperheads.com )
8. Learned how to run a forum for the Alabama MINI groups.
9. Did a track day at Barber's Motorsports park. (pass 5 people in so called faster cars).
10. Played in the Off topic band.
11. And so much more.
And that is why it is called Magic MINI. It is Magic how much you can do with this car. Magic the way it makes you feel. It is just Magic.
