Mini Mania Open House and Lawn Party
by Jerry (Siddhartha) Bradbury
What can transform a peaceful sylvan lawn in Gold Country into a carnival overnight? The annual Mini Mania Open House and Lawn Party of course! Those who were there got to see first hand all the eye candy, but for those who were not, the Mini's ranged from an electric Moke to a VTEC powered Classic, to Randy Steven's tricked out CVT to Robert Holt’s Purple Haze convertible to three full on Mini race cars: my sprint car, Jacques Andres' enduro car and Eric and Colin Herricks's rally car, and many in between.

My Mini has a new setup for this race. Speed parts from my sponsor Mini Mania have been added by my sponsor Bay Bridge Motors and USTCC sponsor Nitto has provided four brand new NT 01 tires. This will be my first official race with the US Touring Car Championship and I look forward to hitting the grid with more horsepower and quicker lap times.

MINI Clubman Review

Published: 21st April 2008
The new MINI was launched in 2001, to much acclaim. Although bigger than the original Mini, what it lacked in rear legroom, it made up for in unusual styling and a vast array of personalisation elements, much loved by a local estate agent.

The MINI Clubman has the same raft of options but its main benefit is the extra length, which should make rear passengers happier.

I think a big fat X with black electrical tape would look cool. And numbers on the doors. And tint on the windows. But thats just ASKING for trouble.

Agree,....for safety-sake...leave the headlights alone.

(and don't tint your driver & passenger window either)

Your headlights light up to show you potential objects that may interfere with your path of travel.  Do you really want to make that any dimmer just for the sake of making your car look good?  It won't look good with a deer on the bonnet.

Hi all

 

Just got my Clubman--yeah!! Got it scheduled in for window tinting tommorow and was thinking about doing the headlights to. If anyone has theirs done could you let me know how badly it affects the brightness. I was planning on buying one of the kits for headlights. Of course the companies all say it doesn't affect quality, but I was wondering what someone with tinted headlights thought.  It has the Xenon headlights.

 

Thanks Shawn

Shawn

You don't need a big one to be happy!
