NCA 2008 Report

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.

Race Report -USTCC

Infineon Raceway, April 11, 2008.
by Jerry (Siddhartha) Bradbury
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.

if you really want stimulus, just go to Starbucks and ask for their Liver Burner Special.  You'll be so stimulated you won't know whether to shXt, wind your watch or have a heart attack.

As I said on another thread, I'm doing the patriotic thing... And sending my "economic stimulus" check over to England.

Relax Bill. I've been taking up the slack.

 Inner and outer sills, left and right door steps, left-right-front-rear floors, and inner wings welded in place.  Moving to the boot area, then to the a-panels/front end.  Should have the welding done in 3 more years! :)

Battery Box removed, and rear valence removed.  Time to clean up the rust, and find the holes.

That's okay... a good number of US residents and citizens who don't pay a cent in income tax are getting refunds as well! ;-)

Er yes, I'm 63 years old and rather well versed in the ways of fraudsters - I sit from time to time as our equivalent of a federal Judge!

I hope that you realize that your email was a scam not spam.

Our Infernal Revenue Service does not email folks asking for that sort of information. Good thing that you did not respond.

 

Critics are like eunuchs in a harem; they know how it's done, they've seen it done every day, but they're unable to do it themselves.

 

People who live in glass libraries shouldn't throw tomes.

In my e mails this evening ( well, in spam actually) was a really kind one from the US Internal Revenue Service telling me  "Our records indicate that you are qualified to receive the
2008 Economic Stimulus Refund."

All I have to do is fill in a form giving my bank details.

I just wanted to tell all you US taxpayers how much I appreciate this really kind gesture by President Bush ( and of course all of you ). Especially kind since I am a lifelong UK resident and citizen and have never paid a cent in tax to the US!
