    Hi all,

    We're working with Winter Park Resort to host "Minis in the Mountains 2012" from Thursday, August 2 - Sunday, August 5 (vendor setup on August 1st). Dates are tentative pending contract signing, but we're far enough along for you to save-the-dates on your calendar.

    Questions, suggestions? Post here or send email to [email protected].

    More as we know more. Looking forward to another great event! :Thumbsup:

    I would agree that not having the MITM and MTTS events at the same time would be a good thing!

    Also, without making it crazy, I think the auto cross should have a couple more classes - it doesn't seem fair to have cars optimized for autcross racing in the same class as bone stock street cars.

    Also, a sign up sheet for the runs, with either a cut off for the maximum number of cars on a run, or send them off in workable sized groups at 10 min intervals or something. If we were really going to do it high tech, make the sign up sheet electronic, so folks could access it with their phones and such!

    One last suggestion for the autocross, if two people are sharing a car, have them run in a different group, having them in the same run group caused problems with both scoring and getting back in line for the next run, trying to change the number and the driver while trying to get in line for the next run was scary at times.....

    Two thumbs up for going back to the Winter Park Resort location tho!

    I have it on good authority that MITM & MTTS will not be on the same date (or even month).
