Message from our patron:
"Alzheimers has, very sadly, touched all our families. Your idea is so different and so much fun, I have to say, I would be delighted to be a patron."
We are delighted and honoured that Sir Stirling Moss is the patron of the Mini Mille Miglia. You couldn't choose a better man!
Stirling Moss and his co-driver Dennis Jenkinson won the Mille Miglia in 1955 in a Mercedes Benz 300SLR, car number 722. He won it in record time averaging 98 miles per hour over the 1,000 mile road course to become a legend in motor racing.
In 2008 Scalextric created a model of 722 with Moss and Jenks aboard. Several of these cars are entered in the Mini Mille Miglia for 2009.
You can read all about Sir Stirling on his excellent website.
Stirling Moss started slot racing 50 years ago!
