I've never minded having to drive a 3 as a loaner. Not as exciting as a MINI, but I don't think BMW's slogan is unfounded.

Anyway, back on topic - did I see Tit entering Liverpool KK at about 7pm tonight? If he had his ears open he would have heard FLiPSiDE and myself bouncing off our respective rev limiters as we left and tore off up the Cumberland Hwy (I won, of course )

Ah!! That was YOU!!

I was busy looking somewhere else and my passenger goes....oh...there's a mini over there....

I looked back and saw your head hanging out the drivers-side window with a look of disgust that I hadn't acknowledged you...

That's the third time I've seen the other mini too late... and couldn't do anything about it...

sorry mate...!

I love going to KK only because there's always crazy cars in there....we passed the most 'phatted-out' rex ever on the way in.....it looked like he was on his way to a round of the JGTC!! Biggest wing you've ever seen on the back of the car!!
