Thanks for taking the initiative in setting up this thread- the Michigan Mini Motor Club will be well represented-

I am planning the mods for my MCS to ensure that I maximize the experience - any suggestions?

:smile: Hi, TY! If you go to the first post and click on the link mbabischkin posted, you can see if you are on the list. If not, PM him, and let him know about any MINI club affiliations.

Thank you so much! Will do. Haven't had time to look at any MINI clubs here in western Virginia yet but am planning on doing so. :smile:

You're welcome! Be sure to check all the regional forums and see if there is a MINI club in your area. So much fun to motor with friends!

Add two more

My wife and I are in (both members of Chicago MINI Motoring Club - CMMC).

We booked a Willows cabin at Fontana last May, shortly after we got back from last year's event.

Can't wait! Although we just realized this is mother's day weekend, so we'll probably be in the doghouse for a few weeks with the families.

See you all there!

^ Thanks for the plug, Sndwave! :smile:

I'd say there is at least one critical area to upgrade your performance-driven MINI for The Dragon; seatbelts! Adding a clip-in 4-point Schroth harness [that is designed for the MINI] is a modular and effective way to keep the car hanging onto you, instead of you hanging onto the car! This not only reduces driver fatigue, but also lets you concentrate on driving your car - all of which improves saftey! :smile:

What if you can only go for a day or so?

I can't really stay all weekend but can probably come up on the Thursday and stay thru friday? Will that be enough time to enjoy a ride for two?

I think I read somewhere that the vettes coming are just a handful, maybe only 8 or so.

Yes, there is like 8 of them and I think there is a SMALL sport bike group coming up the same weekend too. They were there with us last year. One of them told the Fontana --- "we thought they'd be fun to see and hopefully wouldn't get in our way; come to fine out, we have a hard time keeping up with a few of those MINIs." (Frankly, I think they met Kool or Ryan -- or had Ryan just washed his car?)

Hugs,
PB

Thursday will be the Welcome dinner and Friday is the drive everyone is waiting for so yes if you can only do two days please join the crowd.
