I am pleased to report that it appears MINIUSA is sending a technical guru to Topeka to support MINI drivers in the 2007 SCCA Nationals next week. A big thank you goes to Brad Davis, GM of MINI of Charleston, who worked to arrange this support.

I don't have confirmation of the exact day John will arrive (Tuesday or Weds), but if you need help with your Cooper or Cooper S during competition, you can get ahold of me and/or I'll be trying to introduce him to as many of you as possible and have him around in grid. I'm a Chief Steward this year, so pretty much any event official with a radio should be able to reach me if you need a hand and haven't met John yet.
