Martin,
Clarification please - Are you saying that the Feb 28 tech session is not a working technical session for club members but a 'show and tell' session given by Seattle Mini on the equipment and procedures they use when servicing our MINIs? If so, could be interesting stuff. Thanks! |

This sounds like a great event. Always wanted to know how their diagnostic equipment worked. Plug it in & what all is it capable of telling about the health of the car.
If they need a car to use for this show & tell, I'll volunteer my ride.
They also have a state of the art alignment rack. Hope this will be covered as well.
Martin, thanks for setting this up.
I'll be there!
Cheers!

Sounds like an outstand opportunity to understand the inner workings of a auto dealership and how they deal with our MINIs. I would like to have a better understanding of their diagnostic protocols. Hopefully I can make it. Thanks for making this happen.

I'll try to make it. Good chance I might be involved in another long, working weekend starting Friday night the 26th. Hope not, because the BMW/PCA Instructor Clinic is the 27th. This could be a great car weekend.

I think we can actually make this... As far as I know, Steve and I have no other commitments at that time. How cool to have this opportunity!

Maybe we could motor down to Coopers Ale House afterwards for a little lunch/libation? It's close by and the name is certainly inviting...

This is one of our haunts because it is in our neighborhood. This is our "Cheers" type place. Where they know out usual food order and drink preference.
I'm always in for Coopers. Karin |

OK, I heard "ice cream at Dick's!"
FAVE ice cream treat: Dick's Chocolate Ice Cream Hot Fudge Sundae.
Maybe I better go to this Tech Session after all.
Of course, I might leave to get a Sundae right after I log outta here. (ah, the power of suggestion)
