Anyone going tomorrow?

I emailed them twice asking for updated applications because the old ones posted were for the 2008 event, and never heard back, so I wasn't sure what was up with this event. I saw they had the 2009 apps up last week, but it was a little late to start anything at that point.

Anyone wanting to just go look, here is the info for the show.

A beautiful day in downtown PHX today for the Wheels of Britain.



There was a nice range of Minis and Mokes on display.










1967 Aussie Morris Cooper S? complete with roll-up windows.




Including a 1965 Morris Pickup



Best of Show was this Aston Martin DB6 complete with Martini shaker and glasses in the boot. Yeh, I think I already got one of those.


Right, I got one in the back of the garage, behind my Morgan.


Other cool cars include this 1937 MG TA,


1967 Sunbeam Tiger,


1963 TR3 A,


and my friend Rich's MGB.

We walked over to Coopertown with 9 friends from Tucson. First time we had been there. Lunch was surprisingly good.

NOTICE TO DMC'rs: There were only 2 new MINIs entered. You guys should have been there. You would have taken home an Oscar!
