MTTS Photos Available Now

when newscast people were in the MTTS MCC they did not get a ticket!

They shot out of my MINI with a 1080p video camera on the way down to Chicago!

The Miami photo set is very lousy IMHO. They left out a lot of people and a lot of different cars that were on attendance.

MikeC… I think you could have sent in your own, if you had any. Not sure if that’s still open though.

Sowellman.. which ones?

They lined us up on the front straight at Homestead like they were going to do an aerial photo of the group just like at St. Louis in 2006. I didn’t see any included in the Miami batches. Anyone know if any aerials were done?

C4: I noticed the same thing from the Los Angeles set, where some cars were overly represented. Some of that I think was the result of being in front and behind certain cars in traffic and those were the cars that got featured.

In the old days of film, they might have not taken so many photos of one car because of the expense, but in the digital age it appears they took more individual photos and published all of them.

C4 and Sowellman,

I see the same thing in Chicago pics. The problem is that they were limiting themselves by getting in one car and then taking 300 photos of the cars in front of and behind them. Same with the shots of the line ups. almost all of them were from the front or the back of the line. I would think they could have had the opportunity to take at least one of every car there.

I was very dissapointed in this L A run. My wife talked about it since we bought her new mini until the weekend came. She has never experienced this kind of event, I myself have ridden in all sorts of rides on my harley, now I thought my wife could experience the thrill in her mini. The ride from LA to the first stop was a disorganized dissaster. A few of us got in the lead group, with the help of a few LA police cars they stopped some of the first lights, no pictures to prove it were taken by mini usa though, then after the police assistance dissapeared we all scattered together towards the first stop. The photography was poorly done, the route was poorly set up, the rose bowl activities were poorly set up. All in all we were very upset that our weekend, that we prepaid months in advance, was such a dissapointment for the wife and I. If you do have another rally please do not invite us to it because we will be busy, out driving with our top down enjoying the California sun.
