A MINI is racing in the Dakar (now through South America)

Six BMW X3CCs and the brand new Mini All4 Racing will represent Sven Quandt's team on 13 timed special stages and 5,020km of competitive action in a route of 9,618km over the next 14 days across northern Argentina and Chile.

Quandt has assembled a team of over 80 personnel - the largest line-up in X-raid's eight-year history - to tackle the world's most difficult and infamous off-road rally.

The race cars have returned! They'll be racing on North Island NAS all weekend, it's called Speedfest. They met at Orange and Isabella for a car show

Driven from the pits of the track on NAS Miramar, and over to Orange and Isabella near the Hotel Del Coronado... in the usual location of the Coronado car show that happens each spring in March or April

Two Lagondas were there... way cool! Above and below are both Lagondas

Keep fresh spark plugs handy... great idea!
