Mini In The Park date, tickets and info 'The UK's Top Mini Event' (http://www.miniinthepark.co.uk/)

Anyone going to MITP this year?

The BEST MINI event in my opinion :wink:

I am hoping to get there as I missed the mini festival at brands hatch. Sounds like good fun.

What's the split like on old minis an new MINIs?

Usually a good turn out of new MINI's and MINI club stands.
eg. MINI Torque have about 40 booked for their stand:

and Surrey New MINI have about 30 booked on their stand so far:

I'll be there on the Mini Torque stand (well, in the queue for the strip most of the time:biggrin:)

I've done the last 2 years, I reckon there's probably a 60/40 split in favour of the classic mini's.

All round good day, some of the best & quickest cars in the UK :)

I will be going, not sure if the mini will be sold by then but it's only 30 minutes away from where I am.

Look out for signs in my window if it hasn't sold by then.

You a Northampton resident like myself, Michael? If i can get my engine problem sorted out i'm definately up for the event, Santa Pod ain't that far from central Northampton, and hopefully it'll be a blast. :D

Great day yesterday, the place was as packed as I've ever seen it for MITP :biggrin:.

I ran 7 times up the strip with a best on the day of 15.1, not as quick as I'd hoped for but great weather, great cars & great banter more than made up for it :wink:
