Its the pits!


Got a go on the track, but only one lap as an earlier accident in the Challenge race took out 3 cars which has delay everything else.

Its super hot here and not like being in the UK. In fact, after coming off the track, it felt like the cars coming towards us, were on the wrong side of the road. Eek we'd better remember were in sunny blighty.

Car Wash


A familiar car on the car wash stand with Chris and my son James enjoying the experience!

"Oh to have a hand wash like that back home!" james exclaimed. Anyone whos experienced the Mini United car wash in the past will know exactly what he means.

Works for me!


A beautiful sunny and warm morning to start day 2 of Mini United. The immense complex has plenty to do and see, trying to fit it all in is the hardest thing.

The night decends


And the partys getting started

Premier MINI


We!ve arrived at the Premier Inn and having a quick bite to eat before we return tO Silverstone for the evenings entertainment.
The car park here is already packed with MINIs and some fabulous examples too. I think everyond has made an extra effort for the 50th Anniversary of the Mini and adorned their cars with plenty of decals.
