Scott And Tara MTTS Day 1 Recap






MTTS 2010
Aug. 7
Day 1

The fun has officially begun! MINI Takes The States 2010 is on! The fun actually began yesterday at AT&T park where a minicross was held from 9-5. Current and potential MINI owners alike were able to drive some super cool Cooper S cars in an autcross course set up in one of the parking lots. Over 300 people were able to participate and see just how much fun it is to drive these cars. In the evening a meet & greet was held on Treasure Island. There was plenty of food & drink, lots of interesting people to meet & talk to and of course the new Countryman was there! Also in attendance was our travel mascot Chilly the Rabbit. As usual she was quite a hit with everyone and may have even stolen the show from the Countryman!
This morning we all gathered once again in the parking lot at AT&T park for the rise & shine rally. There we were once again able to meet & greet with our fellow MINI drivers and get ready to head out on our first leg of the adventure from San Francisco to Los Angeles. At 8am the flag was dropped and we were escorted with flashing red & blue lights from some of San Francisco’s finest to the freeway and our journey began. Traveling down 280 and through the Santa Cruz mountains, before finally making it to the beautiful Pacific Coast Highway. Of course there we many interesting things to see & do along the way, people to meet and smiles for everyone, including Chilly. There will be another meet & greet this evening in LA, where I was told from some of our corporate MINI folks, that there will be over 750 people in attendance!
Tomorrow we will gather in the morning at Santa Anita Race Track to head out on the second leg of the journey that will take us into Phoenix AZ. So check back to see what new and exciting things are happening.

Let’s Motor!
