The inaugural Bobby Rahal Historic Races event will be held at the Autobahn racetrack in Joliet on August 24th thru August 26th.
General admission advance ticket prices are $25 for Friday, and $50 for Saturday and Sunday.
There are group discounts for as low as 20 people, and VIP specials for 10 or 20 people.
Post up if you are interested, and we will see if we have enough people to get in on some discounted prices..
WRAPUP: Eight MINIs (and one radio controlled Mini) came out and wowed the Skokie parade crowds. The weather was great, and excitement levels were high!!

Dress your MINI up and participate in a July 4th Parade!!
Here are a few out of town road trips to consider if you are looking for some driving vacations. I know there will be CMMC members attending these:
Mad Dogs and Englishman Car show Kalamazoo Mi July 7th
MINIs in the Mountains Colorado August 9th
Route 66 Fest Springfield, Il September 28th – 30th
WRAPUP: We had a small crowd of 5 MINIs gather due to wet weather. The advantage was light traffic, and a bit more excitement throught the twisty bits. After 55 miles of exploring back roads we headed off to a nice breakfast.
The perfect start to a Saturday morning!!
The voting and elections are now complete, and I would like to congratulate and welcome our new CMMC board members:
