Just renewed! Even though no one has seen or heard from me since MTTS. I hope to reconnect in 2017. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone! :santaclaus: Now I will be going dark again.

What time are you planning on? My daughter is coming back from a trip this evening so getting her up much earlier could be a challenge.

My daughter Charlotte and I will be running down I-81 starting early Saturday morning heading to Charlotte (NC). Hoping to leave by 7:30 AM to give us time for stops and maybe site seeing. We will be running with a radio (walkie-talkie) on channel 7-21 so if you see another MINI try to connect via radio. If you see our BRG Ernie at least wave. :wavey: We are staying at the Hampton Inn - University Place, north of Charlotte and ~5 miles directly south of the speedway. We stayed downtown for MTTS2012 and it was great but took a little more time to drive to the speedway. We hope to see you in Charlotte.

I can't wait to see some pictures. I have been too busy the past few months and I miss my MINI friends.

Hilary, Thanks so much for organizing this order. The shirts look great. Bert.

Very nice. It was a beautiful morning.

This would be extra fun. And it is on my way. :motor:

My order is in too. :top:

Tyler is spot on. And bubble wrap. Lots of bubble wrap. It doesn't weight much and helps cushion a lot. And the person receiving the shipment has lots of fun popping the bubbles.

Yes, traditional rally wear, especially for little British cars (think tweeds and wools) can be troublesome in June. I think Hawaiian wear is in order.

Welcome aboard Ross. It looks like you have a few scoops in your driveway. Cool.

Matt, welcome. Pull up a chair with the MINIacs. :motor:

My wife and I attended MOT in 2013. We had a LOT of fun but my wife got very nervous on the mud section, above the treeline, with no guardrail, in the drizzle. She was fine after she closed her eyes. :ahhhhh: I am available to discuss in anyone is interested. PM me and I will send my cell number.

Craig, these are great. Thanks for sharing.

I so want to go to this one year but the timing doesn't work in the last few days of the federal gov't fiscal year. :banghead:
