In case you dont allready know, the VMCI once again will be running the Historic Race meeting at Phillip Island on the 13/14/15th of March. As part of the meeting there will be a all mini regularity, 60 eligable minis will be allowed out on the track to fang around! Try and get to this event, the Nb race minis will be out in force and its going to be a great weekend. Contact Janis at [email protected] or call 0413 647 701 for more details. I will be there looking after the race car so come and say hello.

It's a toss up between the flags on 1.1 for the third year running or going in the regularity or "working" up at the Shannons Walk mini display. Either way i'll be there for another brilliant weekend! This will be the best one ever with so many minis around. There are a few write ups / ads in the mini mag that arrived today.

Chop, my old man and I will be there as flag wavers for the mini club (they run it for the VHRR). There is a house that a lot of the VMCI members stay in but it is very crowded so my old man and I get a motel room near the track. I'm not sure but I don't think you can camp out in/near the track. The whole Island is chockers with this event so if you need accomodation you have to get in soon. You can probably camp in one of the caravan parks at Cowes of which there is a lot. I hope you do come down, it would be great to meet you and it is a brilliant weekend especially with the minis this year. I will PM you with some other info.
