Default You guys helped make this possible

That's my Honda-powered mid-engine Mini on November's cover. Just wanted to say thanks to you guys for helping me out with my engine issues. While there's virtually no Mini in it, it gets lots of attention from just about everyone.

Thanks again guys.

Great job man! Did you post this build on here or were you just able to gather the info you needed for the motor build?

Anyway, I'll keep an eye out for that magazine cover. I gotta se how that H looks under that hood.

Now I wish this would be a special prize car in GT5.

I look forward to reading the article. How's the Trailer coming? Are you going to track Kimini any time soon? Congratulations on the recognition.

Good job, where can I get the issue? If I sign up for the free issue, what are the chances of getting yours?
heh, insane hand-built is a good description.

I started following your site when I graduated from high school. Now, I'm a college graduate and working full time. Congrats on getting the recognition you deserve, although I'm sure the personal satisfaction is worth much more to you than the praise of others.
