Nurbushring and Pacific Palms Run

11 August 2013 / Report by Peter Rodgers with photos by Keiran Rodgers

What a glorious day for a drive in our MX-5s, too hot for a jumper at 9:00 in the morning and hard to believe that we are still in winter. The weather has been very kind to us on our last couple of runs here on the Mid North Coast, which makes up for some "interesting" weather on some of our earlier runs.

A beautiful winters day for a drive from Beresfield to Minmi. It's only a 10min drive by the direct path, but MX-5 owners prefer the 180km scenic route via Dungog, Gresford, Branxton, Kurri Kurri and Mt Sugarloaf. Xmas in July lunch was had at the Minmi Hotel.
