What kind of driving light covers are those? I just got DLs and got these really bad, dorky white covers from MINI. Wish they made black. Did you paint yours (what kind of paint works?) or buy aftermarket covers?

I am lowered on H&R springs. The wheel barely touches the felt on the section closest to the doors. The thing is, the felt is a little loose there, so I am gonna get it tightened up with some glue and I should be fine. There is about a 1/4 in of play, and I mean it barely touches. Woot Woot!

oh my what happened? i had one off road excursion in the mini at the track too (my own fault for running slicks in semi-wet at 4 degrees celcius!) but even at wet peaty mud i didn't drag that much back to the pits

Like everything else we do mud bigger in Texas. New track with no grass yet, 9 inches of snow a few days before the event and it leads to thick cloying mud just off track. If you went off you were towed back in. The Exige that went off made a giant slurping sound when the pulled it out of the mud.

And people were wondering in the Pictures thread why anyone would have the tow hook on their car . . . 
Looks like you earned that one!
