Popular Post gnatster Posted April 13, 2012 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Howdy, Moved here about a year ago now from Texas. Didn't like the heat, the sprawl and the flat roads. Own a 2006 MINI Cooper S and run a MINI themed forum. It's somewhat modded... Back in Texas I was at the track for HPDE's quite often. Look to be starting that up again soon one I get car back from an engine rebuild. Looking forward to checking out CR. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
