The MTTS 2010 event ideas started leaking out the last two weeks, and as another US site has released an overview (jumping the MINI embargo) we thought we would release some details. The MTTS 2010 is in Denver, Colorado, August 6-8, so you might want to make a week of it and stay over into the next week for MINIs In The Mountains (www.minisinthemoutains.com). The general thesis is to have drivers start from major metro cities as that’s where the larger clubs are, so look for starting points in Los Angeles, Dallas, Atlanta, Baltimore/DC, Chicago/Indianapolis, and the convoy lead by MC2 from Seattle/Portland. Both classic and new Minis will be cared for. It looks like we’ll start on Monday, August 2nd. Maybe we’ll make a scavenger hunt of the drive?
MC2 and its advertisers would like to organize a charity event with the local Mini/MINI clubs that Friday night, so look for news on a karting event or the like where we can help a local organization raise funds to cure a very local need.
This just in from Minis On Top:
Don’t fret – MINIsOnTop is happening again this year! We’re just moving a bit slower than our predecessors Ian, Theo and Michael did.
Registration will be online this year and will open soon. As always, it will be first-come, first-served.
After rave reviews last year, the Attitash Grand Summit Hotel will be our base hotel again this year. The Attitash is a luxury resort, centrally located in Bartlett, NH between the Kancamagus Highway and the Mount Washington Auto Road. Please call (800) 223-7669 to book your room and be sure to ask for the MINIsOnTop special rate! Please note: the special rate is not available for booking online.
You can also follow this year’s event on Twitter and Facebook.
So stay tuned! We’ll have more information for you soon.
