    I believe there will be a display of Minis. I will display the Cooper S there.

    Ron - We are leaving Saturday morning. I have a hotel room booked for Sat and Sun night. We could meet you somewhere on the pike, I believe thats the fastest way there.

    If you can only attend for one day, keep in mind that there will be racing on Saturday and Monday, and only a car show on Sunday. So if you want to see racing go on Saturday, but the Sunday car show is really incredible as well. Why not go both days?

    Its a 2002 BMW Mini Cooper S. The car belongs to my girlfriend. You cant miss it, even in that crowd. It is silver with a black roof and mirrors. She loves dragons, so I made a custom graphite racing stripe on the hood, with a dragon design in matching silver. It has my website across the windshield, and on the side glass - www.TheXtremeClean.com

    Here are a couple of pics:

    I would love to meet some FChatters there. Anyone up for getting a group together for dinner Sat or Sun night?

    Hi, I'll be there with a bunch of early 911S's. Hopefully displayed somewhere in the paddock. May even bring a Daytona if I have enough drivers. Stop by and say hi.

    We will plan on going Sat morning. Likely be at exit 11 at around 8AM which will put us at LR by 10:15.
    Give me a call about the MINI. I sold my Mercedes yesterday and need a car. I'm concidering the MINI.
    Thanks

    I hope you are right, but believe you are wrong. Aston Martin is the featured marque this year. I do not believe that Ferrari will have a factory display, and since the FXX is in their hands, the chances of it being at LRP are slim to none. I hope I am wrong, and if so will gladly buy you a drink!

    On a side note, Carroll Shelby will be there to sign autographs. Break out the memoribilia.....

    Ron,

    That time frame sounds good. Perhaps we can meet upon the road. The Mini is a great car, but get the S. The regular version is slightly um... slow.

    What an amazing weekend!

    I will upload my pics as soon as I sort through them.

    Ron, thanks for the fun ride home, watching your Mondial perform on the highway was almost as good as the sounds it was making!

    I was very impressed with your car. Is it stock or did you do some mods?
    I couldn’t believe the speed that is capable of. North of 120? I would defiantly buy one if it met my needs.

    Honestly, this was the first time I drove my car the way that it should be driven. Its great when conditions permit you to safely air it out......

    It was great seeing you and meeting your girl friend.
