It looks like Ireland bars now ship with a U shaped mount but they do not sell them on their own. The car ran excellent, and all though I didn't run all that well, my co-driver was 2 tenths off of 3rd and half a second off of 2nd in STX. People seemed to be surprised that the beater was so close!
    You never came for a ride with me!?

              Anyone interested in 15x7 D-force LTW5's bronze with Conti Extremewintercontact winter tires mounted on them? I may consider selling them if the price is right.

                        Alex, I'm jealous, that is a seriously cool car!

                        Which would you rather own though, the FF or the Moupe? I'd take the Moupe myself, I'd be too scared to wad up the FF.

                          M Coupe hands down. The FF was amazing, but the amount of wealth you would have to have to own that is staggering to me. Honestly, being that rich would be so much more problematic than owning the car!

                            Been working on my Mini alot recently, getting it more dependable for the summer!

                            Completely flushed out and bled the brakes, the clutch hydraulics, replaced two broken wheel studs and one stripped lug, flushed out the coolant system, and replaced pretty much every carb gasket.

                            Rebuilt the remote shifter, it had about 1/2 of grime built up inside the casing





                            All perty and clean, all new bushings and seals, and regreased



                            Replaced the original thermostat! In the mean time I snapped one of the studs because it was pretty much rust welded to the housing







                            Now its running like a champ, and ready for the summer!
