That’s fantastic news! I’m hoping it makes it through Texas again, but I’m sure the folks up north would love a chance to be part of the event as well.

OK No move vacation for me. Must save up all my days! I want to do the entire thing!

Are we going East to West this time? Will this be for the intro of the Clubman’s like what they did for the GP? WooHoo! THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!

Nathaniel Salzman Apr 30th, 2007 Link

I’d love to see a route up through the northern half of the country – colorado, yellowstone, black hills, minneapolis… ;-)

Ian C. Apr 30th, 2007 Link

Can’t see it being clubman intro – unless they do a winter drive!

Theo Apr 30th, 2007 Link

Advanced roll-out of JCW?

Joel Apr 30th, 2007 Link

We enjoyed the first one so much! I will be the first one to sign up for 08!

Sounds like it will be fun! I hope to have my MINI by then and be able to join in the festivity.

Great to hear, not to sure of doing a cross country drive every couple of years with this event. I agree with the idea of the “bookend” events that was discused on White Roof Radio #151. See positives and negatives to the cross country event concept. The best thing is that it gives a large cross section of mini drivers to join in. I had the chance to join some of it last year but don’t know if my schedule will ever allow me the time to make the compleate trip, I don’t think I am alone in this reality.

As for coast to coast run maybe US 50, maybe seperate runs from either coast to a central meet. Would love to see the idea’s others have. Personally I would love to see Mini develop a performance driving school like BMW has, and use it as a intro event at either end.

MINIUSA, whatever you do next year, please make sure to include Florida in the route.

If they keep it within a reasonable distance of N. Alabama, I’ll be there :-D I’m still upset that I missed the Memphis-Nashville leg of MTTS.

J/C Apr 30th, 2007 Link

This is great news! I hope they keep it during the summer months. (Being a schoolteacher has some benefits.)

Yum!

Starting from each WING of the country (from the MINI logo), the two groups could meet up at the geographical center of the U.S., in the middle of Kansas somewhere…

MINI Meets in the Middle 07? (MMM07)

best I can do on a Monday.

I doubt MINI would do this “just because.” I would bet they are going to tie this in with the JCW model. The one with the rumored big HP increase. Not the one recently announced with only a minor HP bump.

Jon Apr 30th, 2007 Link

I believe you could be correct Craig, I am assuming we will see either the new JCW or the new Clubman released about then.
