Oulton Park Mini Festival - July 12th

[tomkidd]

Is it just MCR members on your stand Pete?

[Pete]

I should really check membership numbers, finger prints and ask some security questions but on this (and plenty of other) occasions I'll overlook it.

[Mini7org]

Pete I guess I had better bring my shed over then so you have something to nail those sail flags to (I know you and Oulton Park, I just hope its only Bank Holiday Mondays ). Jan will also be in her Mini with at least one other Mini with us.

Booked my ticket today, now I just need to find somewhere to kip on Friday night.

[Pete]

I think you may be able to camp there on Friday night Stu.

Is there an entry list up yet anyone?

[Pete]

The organisers are looking for rally cars to be demonstrated on the 'rally stage', here's the details and email to contact :

Hi Pete
still bringing my MK3S along.What time are you setting up on Saturday? I guesse you will be over near the Chequers restaurant yes?

[Pete]

Hi Andy, I'll be there about 9.00am, look out for the MCR sail flags near the restaurant somewhere. At very late notice I've also been asked to help with a display of 'cars of special interest' ( I presume near the paddock?) which some of the board members here will be taking part in. Should have some interesting news on that soon.

[gr4h4m]

I will be pop along with a mate. it will be good to take the mini out for a run.

[Pete]

Look forward to seeing you Graham. Shaping up to be a good doo!

They're still lookimng for rally cars for the rally stage if anyone's interested?

[SMOKE GREY]

Anyone got any spare tickets

[Tim Harber]

I may have one or so

If you ring me at work 07000 850 1275 I can let you know. Not sure if I will be going back on here in the meanwhile

Don't expect large grid of historics at weekend btw. Money seems to be tighter...

[mk1]

Tim, I have already sorted Smoke out via PM.

[SMOKE GREY]

Sorted now thank you , thanks to Mark and Tim.

[surfblue63]

Unfortunate the Innos servo has thrown a wobbler, so I'll be there in my '93 Sprite. I'll be there early Pete so get those flags up sharpish .

[Pete]

So I'll see everybody in the morning, Mark, Paul, 2 x Micks, Jan, 2 x Johns, Tom, 2 x Steves, Bernie, Bill,Dave (on the rally stage), Chris, Matt, etc etc.

Entry lists are a bit thin for "classic" Minis.

Really enjoyed the day today, very good turn out in the end (especially off here!). Spirit of the event award goes to a charging Tim Harber who was picking off the competition one by one until an errant (slower) driver in front made an extra mobile chicane at Druids forcing Tim to collect his back end . Tim went back out in the second race with somewhat bent car from the earlier skirmish, went even quicker and made up several places. Well done Tim, driver of the day for me.

Hope MSV put this on again next year and hopefully with bigger grids.

[steve1071]

Aye, cracking day Pete. Didn't manage to bump into you, but spoke to Mark and Adam, and spotted Tom.

Would definitely go next year, hopefully in a mini!

Shouldn't say it but I loved that trick van with the Type R engine in the back, if I was 20 years younger.

Will post some pics up later.
