If you just have your Key they will let you in. At least that is what the email they sent me said.

Meeting Team Fireball was awesome. 500 horses on that little monster... the door felt like it weighed 3 pounds. Very nice graphics too. On the back of the truck behind it, they have my exact words when I looked inside it. "Holy crap!"

The whole event was awesome. I just wish the Cards had had their 13-6 win that night, not that drubbing we took...



Thanks to all the sponsors!

Great Time 1st Class!

Well I had a super time at the St. Louis leg then going to Indy and driving the Brickyard. It was great seeing everyone that I met up with at the Auto Show in June and meeting new friends driving to Indy. What a great event. I have pictures posted on my Blog and I'm trying to figure out what video to cut...Thats going to be hard. Check out the Pictures and you can reply to each of them while viewing.

Thanks
Craig

I Can't Believe I missed This

I can't believe that I had to WORK that night on an emergency problem and I missed this great opportunity to see the MINIs Then to add insult to massive injury - more prob lems on Wednesday. Hope MINI decides to do this again.

Those pics were at about 5:30-6:30 -- I think due to the game there were a lot more people filing in and out versus those staying the entire time. It felt like a few hundred to me, but I don't know about the 500 I think I read about. Call it 250-300.

The whole thing made me want to mod my MINI though, so I'm thinking of locking my wallet away in a drawer somewhere.

(someday...)

Ted Drewe's Ice Cream = the win. Thanks Mini of St. Louis.

For anyone who hasn't seen this: http://www.gbmini.net/mtblog/archive...ates_tak.shtml

MTTS Website was updated with photos, and at the St. Louis Arch shot there is a really nice close up of Gromit, Bean, and Killer Bee, (And his Mini not sure of the name.)

Some other cool shots. Thought you should know.

Don't let Mini here you say you want to mod your Mini now.

We could not make it, we both wanted to but my job did not let me and Pep'r did not want to do it alone.

I do not understand why they did not have a lot that could fit all 250-300 Minis for one giant tailgate party. I guess they wanted the back drop of the field. Just did not make sense to have a Mini event that one could not to bring the Mini to. That would have made a great picture.....300 Minis tailgating!

It did look like fun and we are sorry we missed it.......no pictures of the Maxim Girls.

Where's the Badge?

Has anyone heard of a place where we can purchase those MTTS grill badges? We were told that even though they were only available at selected stops we could all order one later when the event was over. I haven’t found anything about them at MINI USA, MINI of St. Louis or any aftermarket site. We did three cities and could get no badge but many folks who did one city were able to get them. What’s that about? Any ideas?
