Here's my guess-estimate.

524 current total
-103 (that's the total of +1, +2, etc next to the registration names)
-1 ("snooter's wife", she's in my car!)
-1 ("spouse" sound like a ride along)

419 Mini's in my guess

 

Found this some time ago. Works well. Beats the daylights out of PShop.

too bad they dont have a Mac version! :impatient

 

Yes, here is Craig's MINI counting theory. If you were on the road you might have missed it. It's worth repeating.

 

525

I count the people registered minus the +1(2) (3)s, minus my wife, minus others I know that won't have MINIs like OctaneGuy, my buddy and his wife(no MINI) meeting us for the weekend on their bikes, etc.

I get roughly 405 MINIs, probably no more but figure -10% for error equals:
365 MINIs

 

Is there any place to see how many FULL registrations we have compared to $5 registrations? I think that would tell more of a full story. Honestly i didn't see the need to pay $5 for my GF and father in law.

 

Thanks, for the thread change.

How's the trip so far?

 

About 2400 miles! :impatient And I dodged some hellacious weather, too!

 

Isn't the Final number 525 since registration closed on April 7th?

 

Pre-registration for the larger package is closed, but the basic package is still available, from what I know. Anyone knowing different, please post to clarify.

 

527

Basic registration happens up until the end. (or close)

Come on 700!

 

Anyone care to guess how many additional MINIs will show up whose owners did not register?

 

ALOT! Probably around 100 extra....

 

We can say we had 1000 MINIs and nobody will ever know!

 

Maybe we can get Smokey4 to fly up in his local work helicopter and take an aerial shot of the area several times?

 

528

 

529

...down to a trickle.

 

531 still moving but slowly, probably more because the lodging is hard to come by now.

 

I know of 5 who are just showing up and have not been counted. I'm sure there are many more than that.

 

532.

 

533:impatient

 

You must not have many traffic jams in Irwin. I'm originally from Johnstown and a traffic jam there is 2 cars at any light at any one time. It will be interesting to see if we can do our parade on Friday morning where everyone joins up at the base of the dam and drives via 28, right on THE DRAGON and goes to the end. Traffic coming north on THE DRAGON is stopped to let us all through. It is quite the sight.

How bout dem Steelers!!!!

 

I make it a special point to be going the opposite direction of the parade. Bumper to bumper at 3 MPH is not my idea of a fun drive.

And please even at 3 MPH many of the parade people cut corners and turns, PLEASE stay on your own side of the line.

 

I am looking forward to participating in the parade. I know it will be bumper-to-bumper but that's kinda the point isn't it
