I'd love to register for this, but all I get on the MINIUSA site is passed back and forth. Their MTTS link just dumps you back onto the opening page of the web site.

It's probably a pop-up blocker interfering on your PC. The site works great for me.

On the MTTS website, it's in the bottom right hand corner.

Marina, this is for MINI-USA to send you official event information as it comes, as well as a welcome package for the event and etc... This has nothing to do with the specific planning going on with DCMM regarding the event. This is simply a way for Mini-USA to get a count, and a way for any and all interested in MTTS to stay informed.

I noticed that too. They put some people down by their real name AND a nick name.

DCMM and MTTS

The time has come to seek a few volunteers to help wrap up the details on MTTS. Marina has already done the leg work getting us up and running and involved. We just need to tie up the loose ends and get the information out to White Roof Radio, MINIUSA and our members. If you are interested in helping, please shoot me an e mail at president@dcmetrominis.org. We will also need members who plan to participate in the MTTS events to be at our events and help out.

Thanks

With MINI of Sterling, a party or BBQ at a location TBD. Hopefully a tour of DC by Night driving event that evening. We are going to approach someone about hosting a breakfast on the way out of town the next morning as well. This is still tentative.

If anyone has more ideas. We'll take em

Get on MINIUSA's site (where you registered) and on the map, click on the route between Indianapolis and Charleston. It'll open a screen with details of that leg, including lodging. We're gonna be at the Marriott Town Center in Charlston (which is the headquarters hotel for the run). There are some other hotels listed.

Then, do the same with the next leg of the run to get details for that leg.
