"Sir Porsche ran away. Bravely ran away away... when challenge reared its ugly head they bravely turned their tail and fled..." YesIFit, was that REALLY the Porsche response? I have only recently been watching from the sidelines on this... If so... arrogant bastards. If not... very artistic creation of a stereotypical Porsche response. I really love the line "... where there is more at stake than T-shirts and valet parking spaces..." Hey guys, there IS more at stake! What is "honor"? You backing down? MINI wins by forfeit! We scared 'em off!" Seriously, though, I've met a bunch of PCA guys here in Pittsburgh and most are great, and not quite the argyle-sweater type... but "PCA guys" are not fully representative of typical Porsche owners. Mini Club people tend to better represent the typical Mini owner. That says something, but my coffee's worn off so I'm not trying to interpret...
MINI USA Still Hoping to Race Porsche Despite Porsche officially turning down MINI’s offer of a race, MINI USA is still pressing ahead with their public campaign. According to our sources they are going to create a public campaign (perhaps even a petition) to get Porsche to Road Atlanta for the race on the 21st of June. Stay tuned… More...
And from the stupid state Laws that are still on the books: Mini better be careful with their response in D.C.
As I'm reading this I get a E-mail from Mini with the petition! Bet the dealerships already have the banners... Genius, you can smell another marketing award for MINI! Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk
As you stated earlier Nathan (I think it was you), I suspect that Porsche might be in on this, at least a little bit anyway.
Got to about 1:15 mark, the Jaguar promotion: Warning. NSF!!! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-ZSQDo_mTE]YouTube - Film 2: Crazy People - Dudley Moore[/ame]
I'd get a couple or I know someone that will whip up a batch for us, maybe do a group buy if Nathan doesn't mind, Maybe use it as a fund raiser to help with the oil clean up! Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk
Sounds like the MINI vs Porsche is still on, with or without Porsche. Looks like MINI bought a Porsche to do battle should Porsche back out of the challenge. The Post and Courier - It?s a Mini world after all - Charleston SC - postandcourier.com
I really hope porsche steps up and shows up. But even if they don't my inside intel tells me a race is going to happen with or without their backing. I'll post more as soon as MINI has their meeting this week.
have they changed their mind about opening to the public? come on! sell tickets, donate to the gulf. PLEASE!!! it's practically in my backyard!!!
