Before the newest episode drops Tuesday, I need to tell the world I'm an idiot!

A lot of folks know that already. But in the podcast, I talk about the Light In Sight that goes on your windshield and helps you see those pesky stop lights that are directly overhead.

I had the website pulled up, I knew the website and the name of the company, yet I still said Light N Sight!!!!

Either way, here's the link. It' also listed correctly in the show note of the podcast. Sorry Light In Sight folks!

Patented windshield mounted lens for assisting drivers in seeing traffic lights out of their normal view. Optical quality, inexpensive, flexible, easily transferable between vehicles.

Question of the week:
What is the first mod you DID to your MINI?

Tune in Tuesday, March 19 for episode 5.

We're gonna talk about the second gen platform. Are the N series engines as bad as everyone says? Can they be made to last? More importantly, should you buy one? And I'm not picking on them, we've had 4 and still have two of them.

Made it out to our first event of 2024. We joined the folks from DC Metro MINIs for their Mistress Run. If your significant other was your object of Valentine’s Day, your Motoring Mistress (your MINI) is celebrated on this run. Some nice twisties in northern Virginia, great Italian restaurant lunch stop and a nice winery ending with a few flurries. We shook off the winter cobwebs and were ready to motor for the rest of 2024. Send us your upcoming events and wrap-up of your completed events and hear ‘em mentioned on the podcast!

New colors for 2024.
No more Zesty Yellow, Rebel Green, Sage Green, Island Blue or Enigmatic Black. But these new colors look interesting.

It just occurred to me I've been remiss from giving acknowledgement to the designer of all of our artwork.

If you've bought a MINIs On The Dragon shirt, or pretty much any other large MINI event, or have a t shirt from your local club, chances are Craig Burkett, formerly of Evergreen Graphic did the artwork. He retired and sold his company and still worked for them, but has since retired from that gig. Thankfully he still does design work.

Craig has done not only all of our HR MINI club shirts and our event shirts, he's also done our artwork and shirts both for our Maaco and now our detail shop. He's awesome to deal with and has a depth of talent I couldn't begin to touch.

Thanks for everything, Craig! It's very much appreciated!
