MINI-famous

Well not really. A pic of my car has recently been placed in the Gallery on OutMotoring.com. Which is pretty cool. Those guys run a great site and I'm happy that they not only accepted my picture but placed it front and center.

In other news I just got a notice that my new shift knob is in the mail- which is AWESOME.

Here's a pic from RSpeed.net where I ordered it:



So I think I should get it either by the end of this week or at the latest on Monday. (Can't wait- it's shiny)

Other than that MINI got a good wash yesterday and looks great. The car has been performing very well and I don't have any complaints. After a week or so with the new garage door button installed I have to say that it's very convenient and works really well :)

Oh! I just found out that the LA Chapter of the BMWCCA is hosting and Autocross on November 16th- which I would love to attend. I don't have any details yet but am in the process of getting them. I haven't participated in any events since I moved to LA and it would feel great to get the MINI on a track- though it may mean that I have to buy a helmet (cha-ching $$$)- we'll see.

So keep yer fingers crossed for some good old fashioned racing on the 16th- I'll let you know when I learn more.
