Oct 14 -Pulley Party @ GrassRoots Garage

[onefastmini]

Oct. 14 seems like as good a day as any for a Pulley Party... Lets make it official.
I would like to have a list of parts that I need to order, how many pulleys, intakes, etc.
Also, I will offer a further discount on CravenSpeed items, the prices are not finalized, but will be a substantial savings

Thanks in advance to all who are interested, and even if you are not having any work done, Please come out anyway.

Cheers,
Dan Zipkin

I'm up for it, and may look into doing some kind of mod that day. You may want to check out the Oct. 7th post too though, it mentions ending at your shop for the afternoon and doing installs etc...

Thanks Drew,

I don't plan on doing any installs on the 7th other than a DIY type help session see this thread http://www.tarheelminis.org/showthread.php?p=1944

This is going to turn into an interesting day,
I've got a few race cars that will most likely be here on display, and a MINI owner who has a motorcycle stunt team will be here as well showing off in the parking lot. You all should come out for that if nothing else.

[onefastmini]

That's a great ? Brian, I guess we'll get started at 9:00, I won't be able to get my butt out of bed any earlier
I expect that we'll be here all day, so just just swing by whenever!

There are a couple of good places for lunch that are within a mile of the shop too, so in case anyone was wondering about that, ummm, you don't have to.

Maybe I am just thinking about food because it's almost time for dinner... :p

I'm going to try & drop by and see whats going on - no pulley yet however. My wife & son & I are going to G'bo to pick up a chair from my parents & I've been trying to convince my wife that the pulley party will be enjoyable for them too (probably not for too long though).

[onefastmini]

So far we've got:
NascarMINI: has his own pulley - Helix s/s - trans fluid change
MiniMe85: 15% and borla

I have 2 more Craven 15% available in stock, any takers?
