Mini owners sought for display! April 2, 2009
Posted by richard in : Uncategorized , trackbackTHIS has come a bit too soon for me: on 18 and 19 April, the Dunlop Great & British Motor Festival arrives at Rockingham…
… and the circuit is appealing for owners of the country’s best original Minis to get in touch!
It’s looking for pristine examples of the Mini to showcase in a special display area. To be up for consideration, owners need to email in pictures of their cars, plus reasons why they should be there.
Six chosen ones will be invited to display their cars on the weekend of the event. They’ll be rewarded with two special fully-inclusive weekend circuit passes for doing so.
Ah, if only I had a Mini! But, unless two miracles happen – I both find a car, and find one good enough to be worthy of display – I’ll have to go along, like thousands of others, as a fan.
No worries there, though: Rockingham is opening the huge Champ Car bowl during the weekend, for a special Mini convoy. Indeed, circuit owners reckon they’re going to give the World Record for biggest Mini convoy EVER a go…
Also set to draw punters is a weekend’s Mini racing, including the always-dramatic Mini Se7en Championship and MINI Cooper Challenge.
If you do own a Mini, and want it considered for the special display, email mini@rockingham.co.uk.
Otherwise be sure to join me on the weekend, and ogle at thousands of icons on display.
Hey – even better – if you’ve got one for sale, you could even ping me before the weekend, and arrange to meet up…
Have I (again) solved the great Mini search?
