After issues with Google Plus, we finally gave up. Live internet stuff can be dangerous gang, don’t you forget it. We did news from Motoringfile and some Ask Chad plus some talk about tech in cars. Good stuff. I will update the notes later after I listen myself.

Joined by our pal Axel from Germany (and bigblogg.com) for a ton of news from MotoringFile including some talk about the Cooper R60 with All4. Plus, as you would expect, Todd snuck in a reference to his GP for those of you playing the drinking game! Oddly enough, we also spent some time talking about the Countryman rip-off Fiat 500l. Click through at your own risk, it’s not even the least bit attractive IMO.

And, who’s up for breaking a world record? If that’s you and your are in the US, might I suggest MINIs on the Mack?

Join MINI of Grand Rapids and MINI motorists from all over the country as we attempt to break the Guinness Book World Record for the Largest Parade of MINIs at MINIs on the Mack.

More details at Facebook and we hope to be talking to the organizers very soon!

Recorded live to make up for missing the last live show. Joined by Mr. Gabe and everything, we take a fresh pass at the F56 and a few Ask Chad questions. Plus we got to talk about that fancy looking Coupe you see above. Yes, Todd wrapped it!

There have been requests to get the video shows downloadable in podcast form. The timing for this weeks show couldn’t be worse for video editing, but I’m going to try my best to get it for you guys before the end of the week. Watch for that to show up over at WhiteRoof.tv when it’s ready. Don’t worry, I’ll post it to Facebook and Twitter too so you don’t miss it!

I was out in Las Vegas last week for a little thing called AMVIV, so I missed this weeks show. Not to worry, Todd had my back along with Nathaniel and Chad to cover news from MotoringFile and to answer some of your Ask Chad questions.

For those of you that are wondering, AMVIV was pretty awesome, as usual! All of our friends were there, all of the cool MINIs were there and I got to drive a Ferrari. Full recap to follow during Woofcast 469. We also owe you guys a live show. Watch this space for one possibly next week!

Swirly graphic MINIs from MotoringFile and the Cooper Paceman that you see images of above. One more show for you guys, old school style. We expect regular service to resume, mostly, with the next show. I say mostly because I’m going to mostly be at AMVIV, but hope to make an appearance in Woofcst 468! I’ll be there on Thursday, come say hi!

Did you guys check out the new sponsor yet? We know you love coffee, so do we. And we think that Lost Coffee is one of the best around, so we’ve worked a smokin’ deal. Buy a pound, get a free t-shirt! Order in time for an AMVIV X delivery and get a free Motoring Badge too! It’s our sponsors that keep us running, so you know what to do.

Short on news this week, yet long on show. For some background, take a look at Nathaniels post at MotoringFile. Sure, last week you were all tl;dr, but this week you can find the time to read it. Good stuff that we think all y’all are going to like. We also spend quite a bit of time expounding on the appification of cars. Start here for some background.

MOtD is over and we are seeing the photos and it looks like everyone had a great time! I’m hearing there were a ton of MINIs there too! Hopefully we can get Chad on for the next show to give us the low down. Oh, and it will be live! Remember, we start shortly after 9:00 PM Central time.

A little bit of news from MotoringFile.com. Well, more like Todd and I talking about MINI models and the Paceman. The Dragon (have fun gang!), AMVIV and what you see in that photo above; Be Miles Ahead. Worth checking out if you want to drive a JCW MINI on the track.

We also tackled a couple of Ask Chad questions that we could handle. Chad should be back week after next as soon as he is back from The Dragon and properly recovered. Keep sending those questions in to us at askchad@whiteroofradio.com. We were talking about a receiver hitch to accept a bike rack, and our friends over at MINIdoMore could totally hook you up.

Block Countryman letters on the boot? Check. May discount code? Check (it out!). Teaser for a new sponsor for May? Check!

Finally, if you are headed to AMVIV and would like some really nice photos of your MINI, I’m going to be doing exactly that! You can get more information over at White Roof Photo.

Runnin’ old school tonight! Just Todd and I bringing you news from MotoringFile.com, including the new fog lights and maybe just a very small amount of GP talk.

We even tackled a few of the easy Ask Chad questions. For those of you that are rocking the 1st gen R50/R53 and have the airbag light, this was an extended recall issue that was supposed to be covered for 10 years/150,000 miles. More details about that can be found here.

Woofcast 464:

We got a huge update from OutMotoring last week about 2 brand new websites that you need to check out, especially if you want to pull a trailer behind your MINI. The first is MINI do More, which sells a really nice hitch (among other things) and the other is TowMINI.com, which actually sells the trailers! Not the teardrop style trailers that you are used to seeing, no sir. These are pop-up traveler trailers that are tall enough to stand in! Go, check ‘em out!

Recorded live before an internet audience last Thursday, the boys carry on without me discussing the Paceman and barely even mentioning the GP! As a bonus, we have finally figured out the whole chat room thing, so make sure you are around for the next live show, tentatively scheduled for May 9th, 2013.

Shortly after the live show, we took a few minutes to record something special for the dragon. If you are headed that way next month, hopefully you will get a chance to check it out. We also recorded a commercial of sorts for the White Roof Radio YouTube channel.

News from Motoringfile, including an interview with Rob Pasaro, Head of the BMW App Center Mountainview. And as Todd prepares for his actual birthday celebration, he continues his quest to remind you of famous people who were born this month.

Moving on to Ask Chad, one of the questions was about Cooper exhuast systems. The ones we mentioned in this episode are the Megan Racing, Magnaflow and the Borla. Since we are talking Cooper, we also have a bead on a JCW Sound Kit for the R50 if you are interested. You can hear Todd’s original review here.

Remember to mark those calendars. The Phoenix Tech Day is March 2nd. If you want cool graphics on your MINI before AMVIV, this is the time to do it! It’s happening in Tempe, Arizona at Eurotechs, which is only about a 5 hour drive from Vegas and SoCal. At least it is the way you guys drive!

The MINI you see above, the JCW Paceman, was the topic for this weeks show, along with a few other nuggets from the NAIAS in Detroit, news from MotoringFile and even an Ask Chad question. WRR HQ in Kansas experienced technical difficulties, so you don’t get that. What you do get are some fantastic interviews that Gabe and Nathaniel did while at the NAIAS with some of the who’s who at MINI and MINIUSA!

You also hear about some event updates. First up is the Eurotechs Tech Day, featuring our man Todd working the custom graphics. If you want to get on some of that, sign-up before spaces run out! You could wait for AMVIV in May, but there might not be enough time. You can also watch for Todd at the Philly Meeting later in March. There might be a small spot still open for graphics, use the link above to contact Todd to find out.

Also, if you missed it, whiteroofradio.com got an update this week, you should check it out.

Follow that with some updates about the Paceman and new information about the R60 AWD system. We finish things up with some timely safety tips during Ask Chad.

We were supposed to be live last week, but db got sidetracked at his company holiday party where they made him ride indoor karts.

• Have fun!
• Listen to the instructors
• Oversteer vs. Understeer and how to prevent them
• Supplies
• Tech. CHECK YOUR LUG NUTS!
• Mods db would do before going out on the track
• It’s not racing!

Talk about a lucky night! Gabe was able to join us after his rock star, 1st class trip to Spain. No real reason for him to be there except to drive the new JCW GP and Paceman. You’ve read the reviews on Motoringfile. This is better. Trust me.

A quick programing note. As you know, we normally record the show on Thursday night. This coming Thursday we will not be recording a show so that we can enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with our friends and family. Here in the states, we have to carb up before we hit Walmart on Friday (seriously, it’s nuts and we need the strength). For our friends in the States, have a great Thanksgiving.

A little old school White Roof Radio with just Todd and I talking about all things MINI including news from Motoringfile.com and Olympic fever! And the post at Jalopnik we mentioned is here, and Nathanial put up a post about it here too.

It’s that time of year we would really like you to go over to iTunes and say something nice about your friends at White Roof Radio here.

Another rousing episode of White Roof Radio mostly revolving around the photo above. Good stuff, you should like it! If you are looking for Ask Chad, we ran late this so we did it as a stand-alone episode that you can download when you like. And, for the record, Nathaniel likes the Countryman. here’s proof.
