Thanks from the Aussies

A huge, big thank you to everyone who made us three Aussies feel so welcome at AMVIV. It would not have been the same without people offering us a seat in their MINI to show us around and take us out into the desert.

I have never seen more than about 30 MINIs in one place so seeing between 100 - 200 on each run was just awesome. It was impossible to know where to look in the parking garage!!

So once again thanks to Agro and Sin City MINI Club, to Todd and DB from White Roof Radio and Steve, Alan, Pat and Charlie, Todd, Wendee and Bob, Jennifer, Danny and everyone else you gave us a ride around it was fantastic!!

Hope the trip back was good for you! I still think we could have fit one of our swaybars in your suitcase . It was way cool having you there and I hope you got a prize of some sort for having come the farthest!

G'day,
Randy (Webb Motorsports)

Apparently, and I had nothing to do with this decision, the rule for the furthest attendee was restricted to those driving in.
Happy to have you here Judy. Ken and I won the scavenger hunt on the Sunday.

Most Aussies have a good time where-ever we go. As long as there's beer.

I think we need a Eric_Rowland Smile which would mean Hey I quoted you and changed your name in the quote.

I'm not a compulsive liar.
And I'm not an alcoholic either. I'm a drunk. Alcoholics go to meetings.

Next time come to the Dragon in TN/NC and you can see 400 MINIs at one time. And see lovely country and drive 318 curves in 11 miles......and meet some more really cool people.
