News Release

Mini Owners Shooting for Records at Monterey Historics

General Racing Limited, sponsors of the Monterey Historic Automobile Races (www.montereyhistoric.com) for three decades, has announced that Cooper will be the featured marque at the 2006 Monterey Historics, to be held at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca August 18-20. As part of the festivities, Minis - both new and old - will be out in force, with the possibility of breaking several records.
On the race track, vintage Mini Coopers will be among the many historic race cars recreating the bygone days of road racing. More Minis are expected on the grid than has been the case since the Mini Cooper was first introduced on this track in 1962.
The main parking paddock around the lagoon that gives the race track its name will be reserved entirely for MINIs and Minis. With parking space for over 500 cars, Mini owners have the opportunity to gather the largest number of Minis in one place in North America in history.
Parking in this Mini Corral is available by advance reservation only, and can only be made by clubs or groups of at least 35 cars. Information and registration forms are available on the Monterey Historic Website under General Information/Clubs (www.montereyhistoric.com/gen-info/club-ops.html). For clubs that can not put together the required minimums, and for individual MINI owners who are not affiliated with a club, the NorCal MINI Club has agreed to coordinate a group reservation. For more information on the Norcal combined reservation, email info@norcalminis.com. Deadline for club and corral reservations is June 26.
As the centerpiece of the Corral, MINI USA has reserved the racetrack's Barbecue Island for the whole weekend. At the event, executives from MINI and Michael Cooper, son of John Cooper and principal in John Cooper Works will be introducing the MINI Cooper S John Cooper Works GP car, the most powerful production MINI on the road. Lucky buyers of the first 45 GP cars in the United States will be taking delivery of their cars during the event directly from Michael Cooper and Jim McDowell, head of MINI USA.
MC2, the MINI magazine, is coordinating the creation of a Mini Village within the Mini Corral, where many of its advertisers will be showcasing the parts, accessories, and services they offer to MINI enthusiasts. During the weekend, MC2 will also oversee the attempt to better the existing Guinness Book of Records record for most people crammed into a new MINI. The official record is 21 women, established in England by a women's organization, but MINI USA says they've unofficially put 25 people into a car.
The weekend will climax with the official send-off of the MINI Takes the States coast-to-coast tour, which will visit 17 cities in 14 days, and ending at Lime Rock Race Track in Connecticut, where Minis will again be the featured marque at a General Racing-sponsored historic racing event.
MC2 will be doing a special section on the Monterey Historics weekend, and following the entire 4000 mile MTTS tour, reporting on the tour from the road on its website every day.
