Ha Ha QB. No I had no sneaky motive. I just wanted to know whtat kind of mini and how keen "Thats Me" was. But no Mini yet unfortunately. Thats me shold come along to a Clubmini outing and check them out if he is undecided.

I still have fond memories of doing 4 wheel drifts in my Cooper as it was getting a flogging! You guys with DSC are pussies

[n5290066]

Obviously you haven't checked my M2 signature.

I agree, the DSC has to be turned off and if its not drifting you ain't trying.

That's good advice Steve. You should definately come on a clubMINI run before you order your MINI "Thats me" - that way you can check out some of the different options (both factory and after-market) and get some advice from some people in the know

The runs are not as quick as some of the guys used to do it.

A certain member managed to be right up the front giving the guys in their JCW Mini Cooper Ss a hurry on, in his Cooper with the 15" Rims. Also I find you don't get teh burning brake smell as much as there used to be..


OH the guy who owned a siver mini with Black roof and WORKS qld plate now owns a Rally look classic Cooper S in Red and White

Hi Brett,
You weren't at the last unofficial run. We were standing around toasting marshmallows off of my smoking brakes.

I can verify that Brett - I could smell Steve's Brakes and I was driving in front of him

... and as for having Coopers snapping at our heels There wasn't much chance of that happening

[ZapoMCS]

So who has a clean car right now? I do, I washed it in the rain this afternoon. So its all nice and clean until I drive it tomorrow morning.

[n5290066]

I remember in the early days a nissan pintara trying to show us how to go down the mountain. By 3/4 of the way down the back there was sparks in the smoke from the front discs too.
