Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas & A Happy, Healthy & Prosperous New Year! This was my Christmas & early Birthday present (for the next 10 years =o)) from my awesome husband. Introducing Kiki Koopa, my new JCW Coupe. I guess I should change the name of my blog to Yoshi and Kiki Koopa's Adventures considering that Woodstock was turned back to MINI under the Lemon Law a couple of years ago. Have a great day all

Here are a few of the newest stickers I made.  They can be ordered at www.stuckonminis.com.  If you would like me to create a customer Warning, Notice or Caution sticker, just send me an email at jfelix@stuckonminis.com

You can now order more stickers

Hey all, I finally created a website to purchase stickers. It won't win any design awards but it is functional. I've got about half the stickers posted and now that I have the process down, I'll be adding more in the coming days. Check it out at www.stuckonminis.com

Stuck On Minis is going the whole way

This just in from MINI USA - Here’s your first look at the route for MINI TAKES THE STATES 2012. Starting in New York on July 4th, the route will head West (sorta) with 13 stops including 4 MINIcross courses (Philadelphia, Nashville, Chicago and Los Angeles) where you and your friends can come test drive the family of MINIs. GO FORTH. GO WEST. GO MINI. #MTTS2012

Stuck on Minis will be going the entire route, anyone else going?  Hope to meet some of you out on the road

From Go Kart Handling to the real thing

Wow, I can't believe I haven't posted anything since July. All I can say is time flies when you're having fun. Since July, we've been to Europe (The MINI Factory tour was awesome), taken Bowser and Yoshi to Willow Springs for a track day on "The Streets of Willow" and taken up a new hobby.

I've always loved to drive a go kart, but just for fun and mostly when I was a kid. For Christmas, Bill sent me to the Jim Hall Kart Racing School in Oxnard, I had a blast and was hooked. I liked it even better than tracking the cars at Willow Springs. I have to tell you, driving the rental karts vs driving the school racing karts are a whole different experience. The rentals karts are heavy, slow and very heavy to steer, in contrast to the racing karts, which are light, very fast and easy to steer. Well one thing lead to another and we ended up getting a racing go kart, it's an Arrow X1-CIK TAG (Touch And Go) Kart with a Rotax Sr 125 engine, and Mojo Tires. This is thing is so awesome and very fast. So not only do I have go kart handling in all the MINI's and BMW 1M but now I have a real go kart that can go almost as fast as our JCW and I won't get a ticket no matter how fast I go on the track. Now all I have to do is improve my track times and then I can start to race it.

MINI Factory Tour

It isn't an easy thing to do, but after months of trying we finally, this morning, got a confirmed reservation to take the MINI Factory Tour in Oxford England. This is really dumb but of all the activities we have planned this is going to be one of the highlights of our trip and I can't wait too see where Woodstock, Yoshi, Stitch and Jack's MINI were born.

If you would like to take the tour, more information can be found here - http://www.mini.Co.UK/about-us/factory-tour, just remember to be patient it's a very frustrating process.

Our Dream Garage

Well we finally finished our dream garage, well almost ( just a few decorating touches and some pegboard and it will be done)

Floor - Garage Deck

Cabinets and Bench - Gladiator

Chairs - Craftsman

All made in America

As promised here are some pics:

Yoshi's Big Brother & New Home

Well I finally got pictures of the garage with the Race Deck Flooring, painted walls and the mounted tire racks. I also added some pictures of Yoshi's new big brother the all new 1 series M Coupe better known as Bowser....
Sorry for the bad pics.

We have one last phase to go before the garage will be complete. We'll soon be adding Gladiator Cabinets with a bench. I will post pics when we get the cabinets in and clean up the garage. Not enough time in the day, we've had the new car for approx 3 weeks and only have 600 miles on him. We've been itching to take him out for a really good twisty run. Hopefully that will be this weekend.

Getting Ready for AMVIV8

Sorry I haven't posted lately, but with moving finally done, I am now able to get ready for AMVIV8.

Are you guys going?

Here's something I've been working on, Stuck On Minis just bought an awesome Roland VersaCamm printer/cutter, we can now make your custom die cut stickers, just send us an email and a picture of what you want in eps, ai or high res jpg and we can print and cut your sticker.

See the AMVIV8 Promo sticker below:


This sticker will be contour cut around the grill badge so when you pull the sticker off you won't see the Stuck On MINIs ad.

Hope to see you in Vegas
