Thanks for the great pictures.  The Wold's thrashing picture has 3 generations of us and all 3 Wold brothers.  This one goes up in the shop.

A great overview of the racing week end from Rachel Nelson-

If you didn't make the races in person, this is the next best thing-

Nice work, Terry - you and Renee are certainly prolific photogs and your talent paired with your new equipment yielded lots of memorable shots. I should have hung with you more had I known you were going to have Media access to the track. Your shots cover a bunch of great viewing spots that we behind-the-fence photogs can't get.

And ... I agree with you regarding not enough time spent catching up, but it was good to see so many west coast and Canadian friends/enthusiasts.  After Brainerd in 2009, we all got to chat at the Wold's open house. At this year's BBQ there were so many folks to talk with it was impossible to see everyone and, during the racing, we were all scattered.

Gotta get my few pics posted as well - we're just back home after a post-Can-Am/MMEMW vacation and the Pittsburgh Vintage GP last weekend.  Spent the latter part of this week catching up 'round the homestead, so now maybe I can get to my photo editing/posting.  Stay well.

Jason's photos are now available as well:

The only regret I have is that there were so many people from this forum at this event that I would have loved to spend some time with.

2 minutes with Big Al is not enough and 3 minutes with Scargo is too limiting.

I did get to talk to Seven on a few occasions, but really only in passing.

Rachel:

None of this would have happened, if not for you, Charlie and Mike.

We were just observers and recorders.

Wow, just wow!  

Terry and Renee, Great capture of the full event.  Thanks so much.  Honestly, I spent about an hour going thru them today and did not get thru half of them.  So, so many great shots.  Certainly a tribute to Mini history that will last a long time.  

Thanks again, J

Terry & Renee,

Thanks so much for driving all the way from California, enduring in the HOT sun and humidity for 3 days, and sharing these fantastic photographs of the event! There are simply too many good ones to choose from. You both did a wonderful job of capturing the many sides of the event.

THANK YOU!!!

Rachel & Andy

Cheers,
Rachel

Our galleries are not for the faint of heart as there are over 1000 photos between Renee and I. Consider the galleries a virtual contact sheet and a few marginal photos may have slipped in.

Also view Richard Coburn's excellent photos:

Thanks to Richard for assisting me with the gallery setup. He was working at Toronto this weekend.
