Very cool - thanks Mike, you did a great job with this (even if I did leave Griots over $450 in the red )

Awesome Mike.  It was our first ever MINI get together and it could not have gone any better.  Thanks for all the work getting this together.

Great job organizing the event Mike. Good to meet you and Dave and
others at my first event.

I felt a bit odd winning the big bag of Griot's stuff since it was my first
and the car isn't even here yet, but I got some great tips that will keep the
new Mini looking new.

The Mini will be at the next event. And Dave, my membership form is in
the mail!

Thanks.

Mike did an awesome job....... 

Griot's was great and we will be back with them again.  They are also providing prizes for the raffle during the August show. 

Brett - no reason to feel odd, you own your MINI it is just on the truck and by winning the goody bag you have a head start on keeping it showroom clean.......

Look forward to seeing some of you at the All British Field Meet -  They still have room for cars so send your entry form in.....

 Just so everyone knows. It is PSMINI policy that at any event those who attend are eligable for any and all prizes offered.

  There was also a prize given out that few knew about. Since is was a detail clinic(Minirox had some details that were different) Ralley lights were missing and my billet grille was loose(due to some cones that attacked me last auto-x) Congrates to Snarl who won a 8oz bottle of Griots interior cleaner. He mentioned the lights missing.

 And give yourselves a Big hand of applause. Griots said we where the funnest and best club they have met. Not bad for a bunch of MINIACS.

I love the melting wheels picture.  Looks like I missed a good one.

We had a great time meeting all of you and look forward to our next event.

Even though we already use Griot's product we learned new skills. Unfortuantely, Will told Linda all kinds of in-home uses for Speed Shine so I've used abunch without getting to the MINI.

Now we just have to get the garage up to Griot's standard.

Hey Mike, thanks for coming up with the outing to Griot's!  I thought I knew how to clean my car and that 3 hours was a long time to spend doing it...guess that just trippled after this weekend!  It was great to meet Roxy too, especially after all the great things I have heard!

Thanks again, Ari

ps. If my husband asks anyone, I only spent $20 at Griots... LOL!  This car is going to get me into trouble!

 I love how all the pictures come from different perspectives. Like the one I posted starts out focused the gets blurry the father away the cars are. That's how I see it.(Sucks getting old). I think the camera needs glasses like me :)
