MINI Challenge - MINI Festival everyones invited

Just to let everyone know that the MINI Challenge event at Donnington Park this year will be a MINI Festival organised by Total Track - with a little help from me

The date is Sunday 5 August

The Challenge team want to get over 300 mini's on track at the same time, which will be a world record attempt - so everyone is welcome to join in the fun.

We are currently putting together a list of things that will be happening, apart from some great racing obviously as there will be:

MINI Challenge
Radical Enduro/BiDuro
Sport Maxx Cup
Mini 7
WestField
Britcar

so a packed event !!!

For ticket info please look here http://www.minichallenge.co.uk

I will update this when we have more info.

Oh and Mini Pirate will be there so you can come along and buy some great decals

Phil.

Hi Phil I've just read this thread with great interest.

Don't know if you aware of the World Record attempt of 300 Mini's together, that I am currently organising.
http://www.mini2.com/forum/uk-irelan...home-mini.html

August 5th might be a tall order for 300 Mini's to be organised all together, but I wish you the best of luck with the organising.

I may be popping along myself

Do you just buy tickets on the day? I wanted to book mine on the website but doesn't seem to be an option. I have got the mini 2 for 1 ticket, so do I just show them that at the gate? What time do we need to get there ideally?

I went to Donington last year for the MINI challenge and went on the parade lap. I am hoping to go this year. You can buy tickets on the day and you go through a certain entrance to get into the middle of the track and assemble there. I think it was at Coppice Corner where you go through.

300 is too many. It'll be like a traffic jam. Much better when you can take a few bends at a reasonable speed.
