It was nice to see everyone. Congrats once again Dee and Michael. I wanted to take a few laps around the MNS track but the MINI guys wouldn't leave.

The d@mn photo radar got me on the way home last night :x Going west on the 101 at 59th.

ok, so I couldn't get the exhaust apart this morning....rusted solid, and started to strip a nut at the flange after the resinator.

so I put it all back together.

i really don't think i can do this on the floor, will need a lift. i really don't want to bring it to MINI, but i might have to for this.

As I said earlier, Patty has the 2 bolts, 2 nuts, and gasket that you need... all brand new! :roll:

Its pretty nice so far i've only had is about a month. I really havent had a chance to use it that much yet. I saw a post on NAM where a guy had one and liked the idea until I saw the price tag. I ended up picking up a used one off of craigslist for 500.00 here locally. If anyone needs to get there MINI off the ground everyone is welcome to come over here and use it. My garage is always open.
