Fun and games during our most recent live show. We all picked two cars, one priced at $10K or less, and the other at $30K or less. I think you’ll enjoy our picks. And, another great reason why you don’t want to miss our live shows. I would have put the links back, but they were all already dead.
Then we spent some time answering questions from our live audience. Again, another reason why you don’t want to miss us live. So, we are going to give you another chance.
We will be recording this coming Saturday at 8am PST/ 10am CST / 11am EST / 4pm (I think) GMT. More details will follow later in the week. Keep an eye on the sites toward the end of the week for more details.

Recorded before a live internet audience last Thursday, Gabe, Todd and myself get together to do news of the week from Motoringfile.com.
Big thanks to everyone for your emails and comments for last weeks shows! We do appreciate it.
There is a very good chance we will be live again this week. Different day/time to hopefully allow more of our international listeners to get in on the fun. We are going to try for 8AM PST/11EST/10CST Saturday, May 3rd. Watch the sites for more info as we get closer.
And, remember gang, life lesson here. Don’t start a forest fire by almost dying. We’re just sayin’.

Here we go. Things go smoother if you have a free uStream.tv account.
We were live Thursday night. Thanks to everyone that stopped by!
Yes, audio only. We are still working on video.
It’s been a very long time since we last did this, but Gabe, myself and Todd will be getting together tonight at 7:00PM PST to talk about MINI stuff like we like to do. Best part is we will be live via uStream.tv and sharing it with you here and at Motoringfile.com.
So check back! Thursday at 7PST/9CST/10EST!
I know I know. I said 237. 237 was last night. This is really 238. Honest!
A bit of small car talk and history for you tonight. There was the Honda Civic, the CRX, and Chevy Sprint. Besides those, we cover a bit of history of the small cars in the US and how everyone seems to be switching back to the smaller cars.
Finishing up, we of course have to talk a little about MINIs and just how awesome our little car truly is. Finally, a few tire tips to help you get better mileage.
And some talk about a few podcasts that we really like. Check the link on the side for the complete list. There are some great shows there, and all of them are fans of the show.
Oh yea, Crossroads was really a movie. No foolin’.
Finally, any interest in going on a cruise with a bunch of other MINI people and Whiteroofradio? Let us know below. If there is enough interest, we’ll pursue it further.

Starting off talking about all manner of things. Gabe’s absence, Speed Racer, John Force and George Barris. I do have a correction to make. The Original Batmobile was a Lincoln, not a Buick. I totally mis-spoke. And, yes, Todd is smokin’ serious crack for thinking the Mach 5 looks like a ‘Vette. There is an interview with Fireball Tim and George Barris, but the only link I could find was in iTunes. If you are interested, you can find it here.
You caught the official bit at the beginning, right? Keep us subscribed for all the updates as they happen, plus complete MTTS coverage from all 4 event sites! It’s going to be awesome and we hope to meet many of you at each event.
All that before, finally, getting to news of the week from Motoringfile.com. Rumor has it Gabe might actually be with us this week since his trip plans have changed and there is another rumor that I am trying to start that we will actually do a live show. Keep an eye on the sites later in the week for updates!

Gina Kutros from MINIUSA took 10 with us this week to update us on all of the details that were released about MTTS.
One thing you do want to do if you are planning on going is to register! It’s not necessary, but if you don’t register before the event, you won’t get the ever coveted goody bag. We are sure it’s going to be chock full of some great swag that you aren’t going to want to be without. Besides, the registration fees goes to a local charity for each location. Win win in our book!
Be sure to head over to the MTTS site and subscribe via email or RSS to get updates, and don’t forget to stay tuned to MF, WRR and WR.tv for all of the updates and complete coverage of all 4 events as they happen!

Todd recently found this short bit of audio left from last year’s MINI United.
Recorded during dinner at ’15′, it’s Rauno talking about his experience during the 1967 Monte Carlo Rally, which he won, in a Mini Cooper S. If you are missed our original interview with Rauno during MINI United, you will find it here.
If you are going to be participating in MINI Takes the States, there is a chance you could ask him questions about this yourself as he will be attending the Miami and Boston Events, plus making a 5 day rally between the two events!
Keep an eye out here and at Motoringfile for more information about MTTS as it becomes available! We’ll have more information later this week.

Todd and I in my MINI on the way to Pahrump. The exact location where I turned 150K miles last year in fact. Talking about, what else, AMVIV.
Todd also got the chance to talk to Jack Belcher, SCMM member who has actually driven his MINI at the Bonneville Salt Flats and holds the record for a MINI through the traps! He will be running again later this year during Speed Week.
Be sure to check back tomorrow for some lost audio from MINI United. You won’t be disappointed!

Robert. Las Vegas. Awesome.
For those of you that are fans of Roberts work, this one will not let you down. Robert talked to a lot of people, saw lots of MINIs and brought you along for the ride.
Enjoy!
