I know some of you have sent yours in as well. Don’t worry, I’ll be getting those posted this weekend! Thanks.
This one from jSchwa, who actually put a WRR decal on his Mercury Cougar…
Watch for this and more on the show off page this weekend.
Short 1 yet again this week. This time, Todd couldn’t make it. db and Gabe carry on without him.
-We are not all in SoCal. Only db is.
-db is NOT a geometry wizard.
-Todd was outvoted.
-JCW Tires for Gabe?
-Tires are black, round and they do wear out.
-db lied?
-Too much brake dust? Want better stopping power? Change your brakes.
-To compress the rear rotors, you can get a tool or use one of many different ways. Check out this NAM thread or Harbor Frieght Tools.
-Tear off’s on wheels? Gabe, get on it!
-OEM Pads made of chalk?
-db doesn’t like a big brake kit.
-But big brakes do look hot.
-Big news for the week and some rumor squashing
-Don’t wd-40 or armor all your brakes. Really, we were joking.
-This is the first non-Todd cast. What a trooper!
-db kinda knows what he’s doin’.
-Remember when installing the JCW intake, it’s 113 and white with red stripe.
-ECU is skippable, but really, you should think twice about it.
We should all be back next week, barring anymore alien abductions or black 7 series pulling up. Can’t control those things.
Survey? You know what to do. The WRR Frappr. Get a decal.

From WRR listener RednWhiteCooper: RednWhiteCooper: thought i’d add that even in a convertable, with the antenna like right above the fm modulaor, it still sounds like crap … RednWhiteCooper: tested it in my loaner db: right on…thanks for sharing! I’m going to post that db: are you using an ipod? RednWhiteCooper: yep RednWhiteCooper: 4g … RednWhiteCooper: and a tsunami FM modulator
There you have it, further proof that an FM modulator is not a good way to hook up an iPod to your MINI.
Thanks for sharing!
Another crash video for you this week. It is pretty brutal. Looks like a Renault going end over end over end over end.
Since it’s not a MINI, I’m keeping it out of the feed. Cruise over to the download page to grab it or you can get it here
Decal that is. This time by frequent contributor Robert in Canada:
On his BRAND NEW MINI even.
Thanks Robert!
Ok, who’s next?
To start off the new MINI Club Spotlight, I interviewed James Day of SunshineMINIs.
Listen in to hear some information about the club, some of their upcoming events and more!
Thanks James for coming on. Watch this space next month for another Club Spotlight. It could be yours!
And keep sending in those events gang! The first Eventcast will be next week! Get those events to us at events@whiteroofradio.com.

As promised, I’m going to go ahead and put it into the feed since Todd did an ace job at getting it down to a manageable size! 
You are going to need Apple QuickTime to view the video. Have iTunes installed already? Don’t sweat, you’re good.
You can also download this, amazingly enough, on the download page.
Thanks to listener Doug Musselman for capturing this and sending it in!
Todd did the hard part - Handy guy that Todd, can even edit video!

We’re back in full force this week. Hour long and on fire!
-db took 6 tries to do the intro wrong. Trust me, it’s Woofcast 29. He makes up with a good rant. -Don’t smoke the decals! -Listener feedback, especially message board feedback. -What we didn’t get for Christmas -iPod your MINI…again. Check out Woofcast 13. Also don’t forget mp3yourcar.com. -Don’t get an FM adapter. -MINI New Years resolutions…what are yours? -More audio comments from Robert in CA
Long show, short notes. Don’t forget, if you get the chance, you should take the survey or join the frappr. Of course, if you need something to snaz up a window in your MINI, you could always buy a decal or two.

Thanks Ronald!
