The VTEC Mini has been leaving it’s mark in the world.
This summer has been one of the best on record for the
Seattle area. Tons of sun and several
records set for warm dry days. Although,
I will admit some days were a bit to warm to jump in the Monster Mini. With the big engine STUFFED under the hood,
there is quite a bit of heat produced and it all seems to find it’s way in the
cab. I have sealed up and insulated about
as good as I can so I’ll just need to live with it. I took a friend from work for a ride and hit
a few on-ramps and back roads, loving this car.
The photo is from leaving a friends’ house and giving them a
show. That was a second gear clutch dump
and the way the road is surfaced, things lit up nice.
The car has been running great all summer other than a
broken bracket in Canada and then… I jump in it the other morning, fire it up
and back out the garage. I plant the
break and the peddle went to the floor.
New adventure! I’ll be diagnosing
the problem hopefully this weekend.
