MINIsOnTop 2006

I think MinisOnTop forgets to get mentioned on NAM, even though it is just as big if not bigger than AMVIV and the dragon. Not just the Northeast-we already have people coming from IL, FL, even WY!

If you are anywhere near the NorthEast, this is the big MINI event. We had over 300 minis last year. We conclude the day with an ascent up the Mt. Washington Auto Road. Please see http://www.minisontop.com/ for details.

As of yesterday there were about 50 spots open for the Auto Road. You don't have to drive the auto road but in all cases you must send in a registration.

As with many of our New England events, this is organized on MINI2. You're ecouraged to join the discussion there to find out about all the other great events, prizes, drawings, and charities involved:

But I know there are plenty of people on NAM and not MINI2 and they miss out on some of our areas events because of it...this is one you don't want to miss!

Coming back for a second time this year! MOT is fun, fun, fun!
Here's hoping we get better weather this year, and no Auto Road washouts...

Cheers!

Yes, two years with bad weather...3rd time has to be the charm
It's OK, it doesn't affect the driving.

There actually are already MINIsOnTop threads on NAM - it's just that there's minimal activity over here ...

Actually FIRST time was the charm - but that was "before your time" as the elders say

I know. And I wished I was there so much, I rushed to order my mini and made MOP push to deliver it to me days before MOT.

The first thread is from 05 (even starts that CCM!) and the other is pre-mot specific.
