Yeah, it's gonna be a little warm... hopefully they left the A/C in the R56 spec cars, hehe...

Just got an email from Mike at Mynes/ABF.

They were able to schedule a Phoenix date for the "Road Tour" event in February, 20th and 21st. See link and note below for more info.
Location will be: Phoenix Municipal Stadium (5999 East Van Buren Street, Phoenix)

Here are some pics from the events from 2009.

Tell your friends and family members and come have a blast. At our last event in LA, we had over 600 participants and had a great time. These little cars are quick and they pack a lot of horses under the hood... hope to see you guys there.

So who / when is everyone running? Im running Saturday morning session. Hope to see some of you there.

Sunday afternoon for me.

Signed up for Sat morning..... If I drag my lazy butt out of bed in time.

went for Sunday afternoon since I want to sleep in

I'll be there Saturday afternoon if this cold I have doesn't have me in bed all day instead.

Here are some pictures from our session Saturday morning.

This event was much more fun than I thought it was going to be.. We really got to run those cars hard.. ( i wouldnt in a million years buy one of them used ). I thought I have run my MINIs hard at times,, not even close to its limits I now realize.. Unless you are a auto crosser, you wouldnt know. But i venture to say, that even the ones who do, found out more about the cars.. was a great day... the rain made it even more fun!

That's why you should all come out and autocross, obviously

A few of the talented phoenix autox guys seem to have made it out to the event. Sad I missed it, sounded like a good time.

I had a great time at the Saturday afternoon session. I could really get used to driving like that. I also got some really great ideas for alternatives to adding gauges to my MINI, so thank you to those of you who helped out with that.

thanks to all the MINI owners for coming out to the event. It's a great chance to push the R56 to the limits w/o worrying about getting into trouble with the cops or the road hazards. the rain really made it fun and shows how well the MINIs handle in the rain

There will be another one later this year in Vegas (right around SEMA time)... for those who missed it last year and at the Phx event, keep an eye out for future events.

Our next event is next weekend at Santa Clara... very strong showing in the registration...

Thanks again to all for making the event a huge success.

cheers.
