I bought it for $67.41 USD brand new from Germany and though I had to wait weeks for delivery it was worth the wait. You might even be able to source this stateside with the Mini part number. Sure beats the $300 ones for sale on fleaBay.

No! First 24 I have missed in 28 years. I effectively retired from IMSA last year after 27 years and back to back championships. I am so busy with the PCA Trophy East series and Trans-Am series, I finally passed the baton. I have been taking over 100 flights a year for the last 5 years straight and need to slow down a little. I did go to the ROAR at the first of the month but only to calibrate and validate the Bodymotion Porsche GT4 MR.

Anyone want to organize a day trip down to BMW Group Manufacturing Plant in Spartanburg? Maybe visit the museum and tour the plant? I checked the website and it is currently unavailable but maybe by the time we could pick a date, it may reopen. Or we could drive west and tear up the tail of the dragon... Any interest?

I haven't been to the Zentrum since it opened and never took a tour. that would be cool.
Dragon could also be a fun day.
either way I'm in

I called the Zentrum and they are cleared out for maintenance and repairs until February some time. The factory tours are closed due to BMW model changes and the representative told me they hope to reopen that in April. Damn, that would have made a nice day trip and close. Any other ideas?

I need a couple weeks to get my alignment sorted, and then I’m in for whatever.
