If we HAVE to camp to show the cars, I suspect there won't be many campers. I think the phrase is "we're too old for this camping sh!t".

    Craig is back at the weekend and he may know more, but there's still no details on the MINI United web site.

    Aye, aye. We all know about your camping tendencies.

    (COD4 players will know what I'm talking of.)

    Craig, sorry for the drift

    Ok Guys,

    just back from hols (still have the flu :eyes up:) and thought I would answer some questions...

    Ryan - no confirmation yet from BMW that it is Silverstone, but on all the forums around the world, EVERYONE is booking hotels etc near Silverstone, so someone must have the inside word. I will be emailing Ulrike at BMW this week to see if I can get other info from her.

    As for a club stand - I am just guessing (also from info on other forums) as I think there will be club areas... There wasn't in Holland 2 years ago, but this is 50 years of MINi and also in the UK.

    as AndyP has said, there is still very little information, I have tried to make sure that if anyone is booking a hotel, they make sure it is cancellable (Sorry Malcolm - there must have been a mix up there somehow.. ), this was so that is there was a change to the venue (I really can't see this....) then nobody would loose any money...

    If anyone has any more questions, please let me know and I'll try my best to give you any info/intel I have.

    Smitty - got your PM and replied. thanks for the offer.

    as for getting on track .......... they had track time available when in Holland in 2007, so I would think there would be...

    At mini 30 we did a procession round the track which was slowish but great fun. Was a super day out.
    Craig managed after a lot of pressure to get my booking changed to one which I am able to cancel, but it was not easy. So anyone booking on line be careful as it really tries to "force" you down the advanced booking route. Personally I would phone.
