Or you can meet for coffee and rally on over to KRP to check out the Rallycross in action that day. By the time you get there we should be driving on the course.

Come on down. Kapolei/Barbers point area

Many thanks for the Toy donations.

I heard from Motortrend that they are waiting to hear from HMMC about participating in the March 18-20 First Hawaiian Auto Show.

Can anyone give me email and phone numbers for-

President Rob Stevens
VP Peter Franke (on a ski trip maybe?)

Don't you need ten committed MINIs to show up and volunteers to be present at every shift for three days during the show hours?
