Like 2005? Swarley was getting married that weekend, and "alex has a boner" was getting his pulley installed.

I think only about 40 so far, we need to get moving! If you're going to want a T-shirt you better register real soon because they will not have many extras (if any) and the order is going in soon. Also, there might be a night shuttle launch that weekend. They are trying to get confirmation before organizing a drive to watch.

No, but they will have your name when you check in at registration. We've never had any problems, but if you do let me know.

Sigh, didn't get the classic back in time for this event. We'll likely pop by sometime Saturday night to see the classics over at Old Town, but I was really looking forward to having the classic ready and now I'm not in a very festive mood.

I didn't make it down there Friday night, but I enjoyed Saturday and today. Other than the usual large Minis of Miami group, there weren't many Sunshine MINIs members there. For the car show today, I think there were only 2 MINI Coopers, about 8 Cooper Ss, 1 MINI Convertible, and 5 MINI Clubmans, so there were lots of opportunities to win trophies.

Thanks to Malcolm from classicminicoopers.com for helping Kahlil last night. ;)b

We had a great time checking out the classics at Old Town last night. With this show bringing in such a large following, it's too bad that more SSM folks don't get involved.

Maybe I'll have my classic back in time for that one....I won't count on it.

There weren't as many for sale this year as last year. I think I only saw 3 at Old Town. Might have been a few more at the hotel, but I didn't get much chance to look around. Best deal that I saw was Khalil's green Mini. Others were priced a good bit higher.

There were lots of Minis for sale at the hotel. I know several of them sold, too.
