Jeremy1026 Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 I'm out of this event. Work doesn't want to cooperate, so while there are 50 MINIs traveling around 495, I'll be at work. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

maacodale Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 Sounds like a plan Laura! We have 4 MINI's from Hampton Roads making the trek up your way starting at 6AM. That should give us plenty of time to get there.
carman63 Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 I know it's last minute but... If you wear a men's size 9 shoe, I have a brand new, unworn pair of Piloti driving shoes up for grabs.
