    Posted: June/04/14 at 1:55pm
PSMINI and Griot’s Garage Proudly Present....The 6th Annual PSMINI Car Show!




When: Sunday 8/17. Show Entrants should arrive no later than 830am. Show starts at 9am and will wrap up at around 2pm.

Registration: Closed.

Where: This year’s show will be held at a new location. Our great sponsors at the Griot’s Garage – Flagship Store in Tacoma, WA will host the event. We’re very appreciative to the folks at Griot’s for their lead sponsorship & continued support of our club.

Local Lodging:
Coming from out of town for the show? Coming from sort of far but want that extra hour or two put the final touches on your Mini/MINI before the show? You're in luck, as we've partnered with the Red Lion in Tacoma to offer a special PSMINI room rate. King or Queen rooms will be available for $89 p/night plus tax. The rate also includes free continental breakfast, WIFI, and parking at the hotel. Call the hotel at 253-548-1212 or 800-733-5466, and tell them your part of the PSMINI Car Show group to make your reservations and take advantage of this great deal.

Car Show Badges & T-Shirts: Grill badges & t-shirts commemorating this years show are available via the pre-registration form. Make sure to get yours by marking the quantity & size you'd like on the registration form. Grill badges & shirts ordered via pre-registration will be available for pick up as you check-in for the car show. We will have a limited number of badges & shirts available at the PSMINI booth the day of the show.

Details: As the only MINI/Mini focused car show in the Northwest this show puts the spot light on meeting, interacting, and socializing with your fellow MINI enthusiasts! It’s important to point out that our car shows follow the “Not Normal” mantra. While we still call it a car show, it’s really a celebration of the MINI & Mini, and a gathering of the community who loves them. Whether you own a fully “modded” racer, a classic Mini, a Countryman, a bone stock “justa”, or a brand new MINI fresh off the lot, ALL MINIs are welcomed, nay, encouraged to enter their MINIs.

This years entry classes are:
Best MINI Cooper Hardtop
That's right! We are putting all the Coopers together in one class this year. This includes all of the hardtops from the very first off the line in 2002 to the brand new third generation 2014 models. Which Cooper is going to be the best looking Cooper now that the crowd has three generations to choose from.

Best MINI Cooper Convertible
Like to motor topless? This is class for you! All Cooper Convertibles in their own class and together at last.

Best MINI Coupe & Roadster
These special little 2-seaters are truly in a class of their own. Will the crowd prefer the topless 2-seater or the more aggressive looking hardtop 2-seater? Let's find out!

Best MINI Clubman, Countryman or Paceman
Got some extra room in your MINI? This class includes the Clubman, Countryman, and Paceman. We've got some very customized Clubmans in the club but it was a newborn Paceman that stole the show in this class last year by winning first place after only being on the road 1 week. Register your Paceman, Clubman, or Countryman and let's see which one is preferred in Tacoma.

Best Classic Mini
Got a Mini with NO BMW Parts? This is the class for you! This class for all generations of the Classic Mini. It doesn't get more original or iconic than this.

Best Special Edition MINI
Do you have one of the many special editions that MINI has offered over the years? We are talking packages like the Sidewalk Convertible, The 40th Anniversary Monte Carlo Rallye edition MC40, The Checkmate, The Park Lane, The Bayswater, Camden edition, The Bond Street, The Green Park, The Hyde Park, The Goodwood Rolls Royce edition, The GP, and there are many more! (whew) There are a lot of special edition MINIs out there and this year we are putting you front and center right on the lawn in your own category. (The John Cooper Works model is not a special edition, please register in one of the other classes). Not sure if you've got a special edition or can't decide if you'd rather register under one of the other classes? E-mail events@psmini.org and we will help you out.

We’ll also have a few fun categories to encourage creativity and allow you to show off the uniqueness that is your MINI/Mini:
Best in Show - Awarded to the best overall MINI or Mini at the show
Best "Mods" - Awarded for the best aesthetic and/or horsepower related modifications
Best "Bone-Stock" - Awarded for the best unaltered MINI or MINI at the show
Most "Not Normal" - Awarded to the vehicle/motorer best representing the MINI/Mini spirit

*All category & crowd favorites will be determined via ballot casting at the show.*

Food: Dante's Inferno Dogs will be at the show serving food, snacks & drinks at the show. They'll offer a wide variety of sausages & dogs. They have vegetarian options as well as 16 different toppings to choose from! Dante's will also have chips, sodas, & waters available for purchase.

Sponsors: Motoring Advisors from both Northwest and Seattle MINI dealers will be on hand to talk all things MINI! In addition, several club sponsors will be in attendance showcasing their products & services!

Prizes: We’re working with our sponsors on prizes & giveaway items. Come to the PSMINI booth at the show to purchase raffle tickets. We'll give those prizes away throughout the day, so check back often to see if you've won!

Tell a Friend! Help us spread the word about the show! Invite your friends, family, and close strangers. Let's make this the biggest MINI show ever! We've created a flyer to help you do that. This PDF can be printed on normal 11 1/2"x8 1/2" paper and cut to make four flyers. That's 4 flyers for every page printed and that's making good cents out of your printing dollar!

Volunteers Needed!
It takes a village to pull this type of event off, to that end, if you're willing/able to volunteer to help with the the car show please PM me via the fourm (leogetz).

Since I am probably the closest to Griot's I will volunteer to help with the setup!

(Of course, if you pipe up that you are closer to it than I am, you have instantly and irrevocably volunteered to assist with the set-up.)

BUMMER!  The show is the same day as the '55-'57 annual Chevy show at the Triple X, which we signed up for months ago. I think this is the first time I'll miss the annual MINI show since I joined PSMINI - I am Bummed! Cry  Griot's should be a great location for ya'll.

OK, just finished figuring out our return route from MTTS and it puts us back into Washington State mid day on the 16th..... so, we will spend one more night "on the road" in Tacoma and attend the show on Sunday... then make our way home for the end of our epic motoring adventure! Can't think of a better way to end it, or better MINIacs to spend it with.

I might actually be able to make this. Finally got Hello Punisher running stable. Just need to finish the rest of the services and get some new shoes for her. Unsure of the categories, unless they have a "Backyard Modded" section, I may not be showing.

Mine would have been a very strong contender in this category - maybe a hands down winner, even - but today I'm writing to say I broke down and gave her a bath.  Sadly, I don't think there's time now to get another 30K in before the show.

I hope to see you all there... I'm coming off work that morning, so I'm not sure how much prepping time I'll have nor how tired I'll be. I've got family visiting from Hawaii. and of course we have a get-together the same day. I'm hoping I can squeeze it all in.Stern Smile
