    There are about 25 cars heading up from Philly in the morning to help lead the first day of the route WCL to PHL to DC.

    ETA is 7:15am at MINI HQ

    We're driving from DC to Philly on Tuesday after work. We'll meet you all at Citizen's Bank since we have a 9am slot for MINIcross. Does anyone know what time the caravan leaves for DC? I know the plan is to get to the hotel around 5pm so I think anything after 2pm might be cutting it close. We'll depart for our own activities as we approach DC.

    The caravan from WCL should arrive at CBP on July 4th around 11:30a. Registrations, MINIcross, local dealership tents, and lunch activities at CBP. Then ~200 cars head off for for National Harbor, MD. I don't have the planned departure time, but 1:00-2:00p is a safe bet.

    Ok, cool! I'll probably see you on GSP as I'm about an hour south from MINI HQ.

    As soon as I'm free from work, we're heading out of NoVA to WCL. Staying in Park Ridge.

    Great pics and thanks for posting.
    Did you get some tips on how to parallel park?
    Why is the Clubvan on a flatbed?
    Doesn't it run?

    Looks like so much fun!!!

    This particular Clubvan is a Cooper D, probably not allowed to be driven due to non-certification in US.

    Great pictures of the interior of the Clubvan, Jim! Wish they had it open when I was walking around.
