Winterfest Jan 13-17

[Minibeast]

It's bigger! It's BETTER! PBOC is looking to make this the premier track event for car clubs in the nation and the list of additions to this year's event should make that clear. On or off track, there is something for everyone this year. As always, spectators are welcomed with open arms at no charge. (Must sign Waiver)
I hope we see more of the MINI crowd there this year. As always they have been a pleasure to have in the paddock as well as loads of fun to watch on track.
