Kim,
I am planning on being there. I actually just sent an email to the club email this morning. I haven't heard anyhting yet though. I am familiar with Bridgewater but do not know where the Hilton is. Are you located in NJ?

Ken,

I live in New Brunswick. The Hilton is just off of Rt. 287, very easy to get to. The Expedia listing has a location page that gives you a map. Hope to see you at the Bucks Cty meet.

Cheers,
Kim

Interesting...where did this group come from? Dyno tests? Driver's clinics? Sounds like a really cool thing.

 

I am pretty sure i am going.

 

Is this local or national? I looked in the national forum and there is nothing listed.
If you want to make this BIG it could be a real good idea to post in there if you have not. I could have missed it. Also, what other boards has this been posted on? Just suggestions... because the more people attend the more vendors will come etc.

This sounds like fun...
I'm there

Peace,

If I have my Mini clubs correct, this is a classic Mini club (open to all Mini's by the way) that Debbie Franks from Princeton Mini is the president of. This club been around for a while,1988 I think. With the new Mini coming to town, some of these old clubs have started taking off again.

This sounds like something that will be fun to go to.

I'm penciling it in on my calendar.
