It's a cling. I put mine in my right rear window. I got a cool MTTS decal to put on the rear window. It's an outline of the US with MINI Takes the States 2006 inside the border. I got it from Way Motor Works. Looks nice.

 

I guess those of us who do the last leg need to keep looking for this answer. I think I read somewhere that we should leave early Monday to avoid the holiday traffic jams in the NJ/NYC area. We'd really like to meet up and drive with a group, but as we are not a part of any local club (there isn't one in our area) this isn't easy.

 

maybe it's from the "headquarters" hotel...?

 

Hey that band is the same color as the National MS Society wristbands.

 

Got my stuff on Friday! The Fiancee and I are camping at Lime Rock that weekend, and plan to leave early Monday to meet up with everyone in Jersey! Its gonna be great...

 

In case you haven't seen them, http://www.motoringbadges.com/ sells magnetic badges!

This is what they look like:

 

hey does anyone know what/where/when the events are taking place for MTTS in indy? i'm planning on motoring the indy/charleston leg and would love to do a lap around the track does anyone have any idea or have heard anything? thanks for your help!

 

I was just over at Dreyer and Reinbold MINI last week and talked to my MA, Jim Barth. He's been calling to find out.

All he knows to date is that the MINIs will be arriving in Indy tuesday afternoon at the racetrack and the lap should be Wednesday morning. He's hoping to get more details from MINI as the date approaches.

 

I just checked MINIUSA. Looks like the lap around the Indy Speedway will be on the afternoon of Wednesday Aug 30th:
