Hello from Long Island

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself since I'll probably be posting and reading a bit on here. Recently bought a 2006 Mini Cooper S with about 51k on the clock. Put about 1000 miles on it so far and I love it. Already considering modding it so I thought I'd come on here and get some help in the process.

Currently my car came with what looks to be Wilwood BBK, I don't know which variant. And 17" rims that will soon be replaced since they are curbed pretty bad. The past owner didn't seem to keep up on the maintenance so I'll be going over this car with a fine tooth comb the next month or so.

Any info on autocross on Long Island would be great too. Thanks everyone.

Welcome and congrats on your MINI. Very nice. Tint the windows and drop it and it will look sinister. Good luck and remember to wave.

Thanks! I'll be putting up a post in the R53 sub-forum if anyone wants to help me get this car up to snuff and modded!

Nice, just picked mine up today. '09 Clubman probably catch you on the roads of LI before too long. Good luck with it.

I'll drop some AX info up here shortly. I know PCA has been running at Tobay but I haven't been able to attend any yet.

Looks good for a start! Welcome and have fun on the island. You should do Mini to the Point with Albiecrazy! That's coming up soon. There is thread for it.
