I will be going from Charlotte area, anyone else?

There is a group from RTP driving together to Flow. They have started a thread on MINI2.

Jus spoke with the folks at Flow, the event is scheduled as posted. Even if you don't go for the entire length of the rally there is still the light brunch at Flow, and hanging with fellow MINI owners.

Flow Rally was a great time. I followed Janibird up from Charlotte and back. It was very well organized with a lot of twists and turns. I think the count was 49 MINIs. We left Flow about 11:00AM and arrived at the Winery in Floyd, VA about 3:30PM for lunch. I put 372 miles on my MINI on Sunday. I am ready for the next rally.

There are some pictures on MINI2

Thanks mininc! I can't believe there were 49 MINI's. Must have been amazing to see them all. I should have mine by the time there is another rally there, so that will make at least 50!

I'll check for the pics on MINI2.

It was fun - for the time that I was there! I seemed to the only casualty. My transmission lost 5th and 6th gears. Dan from Flow was great - he tried to fix my car in the parking lot at Pilot Mtn. But no luck.

My car will get fixed and I will be ready for the next one.

Video of the rally at my site:

You'll need Windows Media Player 7.1 or later. (tried to create in .mpg format, but file was too large).
