Mini Takes The States II - 2008 Dates Announced

[JPMINITUCSON]

Whos the smart one at MTTS who scheduled it the same week as MITM?

Yeah, doesn't seem smart from a regional stand-point having it the prior weekend, but from a traveling from the east perspective, MITM would make a nice stop on the way home from MTTS.

Tucson - LA - Copper Mountain - Tucson = 2300 miles YIKES!!

Obviously it was someone who sits behind a desk all day and probably doesn't drive a MINI and if they do, they aren't active participants in the MINI world... sheesh! I've been lurking on other MINI forums and the consensus seems to be that those who originally did any leg of MTTS '06 are in agreement that they shouldn't have fixed what wasn't broken...

LAME-O!

The 4 regional events still bums me out, but either way, we'll be participating in both weekends!
