Hello everyone, I'm here to introduce myself, I am Scott and I have a newly purchased 2006 S.  I live about 2 hours from the HR area, but you are my closest club and I make several trips a year to the area.  I am very involved in my local SCCA region (BRR-SCCA) with their autocross and club racing programs.  In addition to my Mini, I have a Miata set up for STS class autocross and another Miata that is a Spec Miata that I race with both the SCCA and NASA.  I've had my Mini about a month and I have already had it out at VIR.  This isn't my first british car as I also have a '76 Triumph TR6.  Look forward to meeting everyone.  Here are the details of my car so far:

Chili Red with white top, mirrors, and bonnet stripes

Factory options:
Multi-function steering wheel with radio controls + cruise
Center arm rest
Limited slip differential
Cloth seats

Other stuff:
Milltek polished stainless cat back exhaust
K&N flat panel air filter
MSD coil pack and Magnecor wires
Koni yellow SA shocks front and DA shocks rear
Rota RB wheels

Sure have, I couldn't help but to try out the Mini on the track.  I loved the power, but my Spec Miata is more fun to drive at the limit.  The Mini is my "commuter" fun car, I'm trying to resist the urge to modify it any further, it's enough keeping up with my 2 race Miata's without adding the Mini to that list......


That being said I have been looking at Mini Mania at the smaller pulley's and ecu's.........
