Anybody want to join together to get the 35 car minimum reservation? If everyone teams up we can easily do it. Details below
You can email me (norm@redwoodempiremini.com), or check the posts here on or the individual club sites. We will need a “central” registration location so that we aren’t duplicating registrations

Local Mini folks -- I just talked to Doug Earle on Friday who is responsible for the events planning at the Monterey Historics in August. They've just concluded a meeting with MINI USA and planning is now really coming together for the event. This is a preview and heads-up, since none of the detailed info is public yet, but will be soon:
As has been announced, Cooper will be the featured marque, and Minis will be the favored cars at the event. MINI USA will be setting up a hospitality area for Mini owners on the barbeque island in the middle of the lagoon at the track, adjacent to the inner paved parking area between turns 2 and 3. This parking area will be reserved for Mini clubs on Saturday and Sunday. To book spaces in this club corral, clubs have to pre-register on behalf of their members, with a minimum of 35 reservations required. Costs are the same as for the regular event, $65 per person on Saturday, $45 on Sunday, but the convenient parking is a real plus when attending the event, and Minis parked in the clubs corral will have the opportunity to drive parade laps around the track on Saturday definitely, and possibly on Sunday as well.
More information on how to book club tickets is on the website www.montereyhistoric.com.
Of course, classic Mini Coopers will be racing during the weekend. We know that MiniCindy Shaffer, MC2 columnist, will be participating, as weill Don Racine in his Monte Carlo Rallye Mini. We expect that a number of the Mini suppliers will be in attendence, and Barry, Gary and Matt, as well as Cindy from MC2 magazine will be there on vendor row.
All details have not been worked out yet, but Doug said that one event taking place on Saturday would have the president of MINI and Michael Cooper would be delivering the first 45 JCW Grand Prix models in the United States to buyers who have already ordered them as part of the ceremonies on Saturday.
Also, MINI USA will be staging a two-week coast-to-coast rally from the Historics to Lime Rock for the Rolex historic races, starting from Monterey after the conclusion of the races.
The central club corral can handle about 500 cars, but with as many MINIs as there are in California, these spaces could go fast, so you may wish to get organized and book spaces for your club members soon.
Looking forward to seeing you in Monterey in August.
Cheers

Have we all agreed on the "group name"? Since there will be members from Nor Cal, REME, Gold Country, Mid Cal, Sierra Nevada, MOASF, and others, I suggest we call the group "Northern California Mini Owners" for this event. That way we will all count toward the 35 car minimum. I have gotten several responses from my email message, and I would like to respond with a "group name' and point of contact.
I suggest that Melanie Sibavan of Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca be the point of contact. (see below) for access to forms and address to mail for tickets and registration.

Car Club Corral
Car clubs are very welcome at the Historics. The special parking corrals are second only to the paddock in the number and quality of exotic and historic cars present over the weekend. Clubs can take advantage of discounted ticket prices for their members, not to mention a special parking area. The corrals allow the clubs to showcase their cars and provide a place to meet and socialize for their members.
Order Form (PDF)
Club Corral Minimum Requirements are 35 advance tickets.
Deadline is Monday, June 26, 2006. Please mail this order form to Melanie Sibayan, Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, P.O. Box 2078, Monterey, CA 93942

NORCAL has 35 cars ready to sign up. We took a poll of some members and officers. We would like to have Norcal have its own corral. We have several things planned around this already. Our original offer still stands if anyone would like us to get them a ticket or tickets we will gladly add them to our order.

Although SoCal Mini fans may not turn out in huge numbers, there are still those of us interested in participating.

Important !!!
I have checked with Gary at MC2 and Doug Earle at General Racing today 4-6-06. The instructions on our order form stand. You must order your tickets with a club or organization group order. The order must be 35 or more per day to get a corral pass. Thats 35 for Saturday and 35 for Sunday. You cannot get a corral pass with a single ticket purchase. So sign up soon.

Larry P., C.W. and everyone else at Norcal - THANK YOU!!!!!
It would have been difficult for us to get 35 members from SCMM to make the minimum number required for a corral of our own. We sure appreciate your offer and the hospitality. Looking forward to seeing our friends, and meeting new ones, from Norcal Minis in August!
