I want to say THANK YOU to MINI for hosting an incredible adventure across America for thousands of MINI enthusiasts. No other manufacturer that I know of supports their customers as much as you do. 

When I first heard the phrase, “When you buy a MINI, it comes with friends,” I didn’t really understand until I arrived at the first event in Atlanta, GA. Within minutes, I made new friends and instantly felt like I belonged. Even though I drove most of the way by myself, I NEVER felt alone.

Another THANK YOU to MINI USA and their support along the way for all the MINIs that needed a helping hand. With their team of MINI Roadside Assistance drivers and dealerships ready to clear their schedules and work overtime, many owners had their cars back on the road that evening or early the next morning. I heard all the amazing stories and was lucky (or unlucky) to experience it myself. The strings they pulled to get me, my dad, and Wendy into California for the last leg of the trip was astounding! I really can’t thank MINI enough for all their help!

Lastly, a THANK YOU to MINI USA for teaming up with Feeding America to put a purpose to this road trip. Not only did we raise 1,000,000+ meals to support those who don’t know when their next meal will be, we spread the word to family, friends, and passerby’s who are more than happy to help.

I’m sad Mini Takes the States 2016 has ended, but am excited and ready for what MINI decides to host in 2018!

My final numbers...

5,233 Miles Motored

5,335 Meals Raised

18 States

15 Days

1 Co-Pilot Gained (my Dad)

Thousands of Bugs Sacrificed

1 Slave Clutch Cylinder

2 Brake Pads

Hundreds of Friends Made

Thousands of MINIs Seen

...and a memory of a lifetime!

Amazing Adventure

What a wonderful experience the past 24 days have been, both the pre-MTTS drive and the MTTS adventure itself. Sadly, Shelly left the team to return home. As La Roja carried Jonathan and the boys away, Duff turned to keep his eyes on his Mom for as long as she was in sight. Safe travels to the team on the post-MTTS drive!

My hot lap at Thermal Club in Palm Desert, California with a professional driver in the new JCW Cooper Hardtop. This was a blast and makes me want to get back out on the track again!

With the 115° Palm Springs' weather we opted to stay close to the ACE Hotel. Duff and Dack caught up on much needed rest and stayed cool on the cement floor. Jonathan and Shelly ordered take out pizza for lunch from Bill's Pizza (recommended by Shelly's local friend.) Dinner was take out from King's Highway (ACE Hotel restaurant.) Quiet, relaxing day.
