Sunday the 1970 Karmann Ghia convertible successfully made a 4-hour round trip to and from Loveland, CO. I am officially calling this car road’able. Some of you may remember that this car met a firey end on its last trip to Loveland. Until Sunday my wife and I were very nervous about taking it too [...]
I usually try and spend the holiday weekends around the house. After all, most everyone else is out cluttering up the camping spots, local pools and amusement parks. Don’t get me wrong sometimes I like crowds, but usually when I’m alone, not with the family. Keeping track of everyone, and keeping everyone happy can be [...]
All the hype in the Mini community right now is centered around the upcoming even in Las Vegas called AMVIV. It’s truly going to be an epic March in Vegas. I am so looking forward to my first AMVIV. After that event comes The Dragon, then MITMs. This year the Mini In The Mountains (MITMS) [...]

The group started by working our way [...]

Here is a link to the pictures from Friday. In there you’ll find a video of a sweet sounding BMW. Another [...]
Thursday morning was rough. I caught what I call “The SEMA Flu”. There is no vaccination for this strain. However, there is a cure. Advil, lots of water, maybe a chili dog for breakfast. I’ll have to try the chili dog thing next time. Other than being hung, Thursday was pretty awesome. I spent the [...]
Matt Adir(Master-Pull) got me trashed Wednesday night…sorry no updates yesterday. Well other than the headache lasted all day, and my inner thighs are raw(from the walking to perverts) I am uploading some more pictures now. Some of the photos are of Todd Pearson from “White Roof Radio”. Consistently in the top 10 inf the Auto [...]
Day one of my SEMA trip was filled with luck, good friends and a sweet hotel. I rolled out of Denver about 4:30 am and arrived in Las Vegas about 3:00 pm. Before checking in the hotel I stopped at the show. I wanted to get my Press Pass before the rush in the morning. [...]
