Hey guys, Im new here to the world of Mini's. Just picked up a used 2002 Velvet Red Mini for a steal. A little back ground on me: Im from BR, LA. I come from a Honda background mostly, Im in the process of building a HC car out of a 89 EF hatch and have been very active in the SCCA crowd here in South Louisiana for many years now. School is finally out for the semester so looking to finish the RR car and get some goodies for the new Mini. Im def looking forward to learning all I can about this little car and making it a fun daily driver. I told myself I didnt want two racecars, but the temptation to mod is already getting the best of me.
