PVGP - Lots of MINIs!

A great MINI turn out happened last weekend and we have a pic to show all the fun they had at the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. What's you favorite, the show or the ride to the show?

Anyone on here going this year?

"From the PVGP site for the new location. “For 2018 the location is switching to the 18th fairway - participants should enter Gate G via North Umberland Street.“


2018 MAP "MINI -- The new location is on the 18th fairway between the Italian Cortile and the Cars ‘n Coffee display." Look on the Map at the very top and you will see the MINI of Pittsburgh ( MINI location ).

That's fine, they have people come and go all day. People sometimes get there later and stay late on Saturday and just hang out/get food from the many vendors than on Sunday people take it easy and most show up at 11am or noon.

They have tons of Food Vendors! It's like a food festival also. They are up on the hill and the BMWCCA always has some pay for food vendors.

Here is the 2019 Map, down by gate E is where we enter.

Awesome, see you there, I will have the Red R58 JCW that day. Meetup group for the PVGP is here: https://www.meetup.com/motoringthebu...nts/262976499/

Many people that go are old school and not online but know of the event as it has been going on for many years.
