MINI Takes the States Release On Your Mark! Get Set! RALLY! The 2010 MINI TAKES THE STATES route is official. After motoring across the country and leaving no stone unturned and no road untraveled, we are pleased to announce the official rally route to Denver for MINI TAKES THE STATES 2010.


In each of the 5 kickoff cities the festivities will begin with an exclusive MINI owner’s only MINI Countryman preview
party, and other exciting activities as we rally from all points to the middle of the country (kinda’ sorta’). This summer’s event will not only bring the community together to celebrate owning a MINI but will also give owners and future owners the opportunity to preview the all new MINI Countryman, along every route.

Check out the routes by visiting the MTTS2010 on Facebook.

Get ready to rally.
