Just back a few minutes ago, lots of slow drivers until M8 including on the run down Molls Gap :( such a waste!

Awesome weekend again, tons of laughs and some amazing roads. Anyone who owns a Mini and loves driving it HAS to do an event like this to see what their car and themselves are capable of.

Totally shattered, what great craic that was! Great to see everyone again and meet some new victims (I mean people).

Hope to post up and see some cool photos soon.

Cheers all!

WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW!
Can't believe that MTI has come to an end. Brum and me paid hommage to Joe Duffy's as we were flying around the M50.

Penelope (the sat-nav) sent us up through Newmarket and then on through Kilmallock and on through Tipperary town. We had the same problem all the way to the M8, but we were soon able to make back the time.

In a huge need for sleep at the minute, but have to do a supermarket sweep.

Sorry never got to chat to you Barry and Michelle.....again, but hope to see you soon.

Adrian, you will have to sort out the rest of the Village People, and get the outfits for your next rendition. I just hope somebody has that on video!

Oh, and did anyone get to catch Buzz Lightyear on video???? Was great to meet you and VM!

Must remember the words of My Neighbourhood by Space for the next one.......

I'm dead... fecking AWESOME weekend boy! WHAT! WHAT!

Thank you all for your company and the biggest thanks to everyone who had a hand in organising this event for us all to come along, drive, passenger, laugh, joke, drink, fall over, sleep (briefly). More tomorrow when I have more mental capacity to think rather than just keep myself upright!

Had a great laugh for the weekend and enjoyed all yer company, The routes were amazing at times and it was great that we had most of the roads to ourselves. Our own little crew of Alex, mad-mad Mick and myself put the 7 and the auto through their paces for the weekend and enjoyed every km travelled. This event is up there as one of the best I have ever done with a group of lovely people who love their Minis and driving. Some beautiful cars on display of all models. Well it is over for this year but the memories will live with all who took part for a long time. Thanks to everyone and I hope all arrived back home OK.

good thinking Derek

I really did have a blast, miss you all already... I love the memories of the fun we had... I think my favourite parts of the weekend were those meeting and having fun with new people. It was different this time as previously there was a big group of UK peeps I knew really well and didn't get out talking to others so much... but the passengering let me chat to others... brilliant!!! Great fun.
