Articles with photographs will be presented to many magazines, especially those which are motorsport related.

Ron Baron of Vancouver has kindly made a superb miniature start ramp for the event. Pasquale Tempesta has kindly offered the loan of his 1956 Alfa Romeo 1900 Super as a courtesy car for drivers and special guests and has done all the translation for this website too. Emanuele Zauli has also offered his Porsche 356 as a courtesy car. Allan Wakefield from Switzerland has kindly offered his MGA in the same way.

Your Company Car?

If you wish to sponsor the event you get two cars liveried in your company colours and logo.

From time to time throughout the weekend of the Mini Mille Miglia the public will be able to race a fleet of especially robust cars. These cars will continue to be used when the track is hired out for other events, providing you with ongoing publicity.

Your car will be liveried in your own company colours.

Choose from:

Lamborghini Gallardo Porsche 997 GTR Ferrari F430

..and this is an example of a highly-detailed car for you to display at your company reception or office, as a 'thank you' for your sponsorship. There is a huge range of cars to choose from so you can probably select your favourite car.

As a sponsor, the cars will be liveried in your own company's colours and logo by Graymalkin, top specialists in this field. For your display model there is a huge choice of cars available.

We are grateful to Scalextric, Slot.it, Conti-Rowland, Charters Ancaster and SlotCarMann* and Sciri Elettroimpianti* for already agreeing to sponsor cars for the event alongside our own company, La Porta Verde.

Tracking the Build

This little box will keep you up-to-date on how things are progressing with getting the track ready for the MMM. The main part of the track is finished but the valley still needs some work. The viaduct is complete except for a little weathering to one section, and I've started adding the rock faces to the lower part of the village.
