[Oct 26 - 27th.] GYMINIKHANA, Track & fun events at BeaveRun Motorsports Complex, PA.

The Pittstop MINI Club, Pa. has invited DCMM members to join their track and social event, GYMINIKHANA !

The PittStop MINI Club has reserved BeaveRun Motorsports Complex Friday afternoon October 26th and all day Saturday, October 27 for an event featuring both performance and social activities! Complete with activities/games for the family, dinner, a live band, lots of high performance driving, and who knows what else…
This should be really fun event indeed.

Here is the Friday event:
Here’s what to expect: Come to BeaveRun Friday afternoon about 3. Hang out, hot lap on the Wilson Circuit (the world-class go-kart track!) and the Autocross area, and have a tailgate-style BBQ after. (Even camp out that night if you want!) But Saturday is the Big Day, with the morning devoted to the tracks including practice on Wilson and the VDA with some timed laps -- you can even rent a kart on Wilson and REALLY strain those neck muscles! The family fun events begin after lunch: car show, costume contest, mini-wood derby race, maybe some lighter Driver Training exercises while the performance drivers participate in the more challenging contests. But wait -- there’s more! That evening, relax to a catered buffet dinner and listen/dance to a live band - Jonny B and the Accelerators!
And here is the fun part, the Saturday event.
Saturday’s activities will be held in parallel with an instructor-lead Flat Out Day HPDE sponsored by the PittStop MINI Club. There are a limited number of driver spots available and they sell out quickly. Reserve a driver spot in the Flat Out Day NOW on the registration form at a discounted price (see form) through the PittStop MINI Club. (The Flat Out Day registration is not included in the Gyminikhana package deal - it is handled directly through BeaveRun, but you need to reserve a spot NOW to get the PittStop MINI Club discounted price. You must be a paid member of the PittStop MINI Club -- or one of our affiliate clubs -- to take advantage of this special discount offer.)
The Flat Out track event part is very interesting. Only downside is, one has to register before Sept 28th to get a discount.

I've been there..it's a great road course. It's probably about 5 hours from DC, depending on traffic.
I just hope it's not snowing up there by then.

Beaver run is a cool and relatively new track.

It's tonight - for those last minute folks among the Club, I'll provide the first frosty cool one for any DC Metro guys/gals coming up!

Weather forecast for setup today isn't so great, but a wet track is a fun track... Weather tomorrow should be spectacular!

Hope you can make it - and if not this year then next!
