On the track at Laguna Seca

Today we headed back to Laguna Seca, with the other GPs and hundreds of MINIs (and some Minis) – the plan was for everyone to get a parade lap at lunchtime but the number of cars overwhelmed the track and sadly many people did not get on … but it was very cool for those that did (including the GPs, put at the front of the pack)!

Loads of pictures in the Gallery, but here are a few highlights (as always, click any pic for a bigger version) …

MINIs everywhere:

    Ummm…………that’s turn 1 Ian……then turn 2…….the other side of the track is the “corkscrew”.

    Thanks – I wasn’t at all sure but thought someone had mentioned it … wrong! ;)

    No problem. Looks like your having a bunch of fun, looking forward to seeing GPMINI at Lime Rock!

    Hey…………any idea what roughly the Mini car count is/was that showed up? Curious if we will get half the estimated 880 Mini’s @ Lime Rock.
