    The Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix, the Pitt Stop MINI Club, and MINI of Pittsburgh would like to invite you and members of your organization to the 2014 PVGP MINI Marque of the Year events. The PVGP is the nation's largest vintage race event, covering ten full days - with each event focusing on MINIs. This is a must for any MINI owner or fan. MINI's, old and new are welcome.

    The culmination of 2014 Grand Prix Race Week occurs on the July 19/20 weekend in Schenley Park, Pittsburgh, where organizers have reserved space for the first 500 MINIs to be on display in the middle of the golf course overlooking the vintage races. MINI owners will be part of the country's largest vintage race event and have an opportunity to take a parade lap on the 2.3 mile street circuit in front of 100,000 spectators! The MINI of Pittsburgh dealership and the Pitt Stop MINI Club will host the Marque Pavilion.
