We could use a few spectators, perhaps an umbrella girl or two.

Actually, sign up and we can put up the club canopy and have a party at the track.

Well, I won't be an umbrella girl, but I'm signed up! Any other ladies running?

Need a few more track enthusiasts to come out, lap a few with us. I think all 3 of us might be in Group 2.

Would be nice to have a video person shooting the action, come out I will buy you lunch, share my water.

We are at 5 on the calendar, but a few might be going that have not signed up on the calendar, 5 is fine with me. It is going to be a fun day!

See you folks on Sunday, bring the right stuff, chair, sunscreen, we will have a case of water at the 10x10. Bring some power snacks.

The food is good at the track, per Rick, I remember some good brats and hamburgers from past events too.

A good day to drive your MINI on the track, learn yourself and your MINI.

Remember smooth is fast, no drama will produce the best lap time.

Don

Bummer, I can't run my convertible, because it doesn't' have roll over protection "IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE DRIVERS SEAT" roll over protection behind the rear seats do not count.

Wow, it was a fun day!, up until I threw a belt. Here are Don's videos.
First session Hero Wide GoPro


Third session Hero Wide GoPro


P.S. The 2nd session had the Hero Wide sitting on the back of BLU-BY-U, see the stuck thread for those. A good video of Don blowing past me!
