MOT_videoRegistration for 2015 MINIs On Top opened this week. Today, videographer Dave Habeeb has posted a terrific teaser video featuring highlights from last year’s gathering.

You may have seen our coverage from MINIs on Top 2014 here. Registration for this year’s MINIs On Top (MOT) opened earlier this week and much to the surprise and delight of last year’s attendees, a comprehensive video chronicling MINIs On Top 2014 was posted to YouTube today.

The video was shot throughout the event and covers the preparation weeks in advance, all the way through the epic drive up Mt. Washington. It also serves as tribute to Ed “MaxaMini” Smith who, as stated in our previous coverage of the event, is honored at MINIs On Top each year with the distribution of rubber ducks.

Videographer Dave Habeeb went to great lengths to interview participants and organizers. At the summit of Mt. Washington, Dave braved extreme cold and wind for hours to get the right footage; he even used photos and music from participants (including yours truly) as part of the production. Reaction to posting of the video on the MINIs On Top Facebook has been swift and positive.
