AH HA! Our office move is now probably moving a week later! The boss said his wife told him about my car rally and he figured we better move the date. ;-) He was kidding, looks like our new furniture is going to be the holdup.
So I can GO! Now I just have to decide how much time off I can afford right before the move. But that's splitting hairs, at least I can do a few days of it now!

Running short on planning time now ... while the east coast stuff doesn't happen till end of August, I'm off flying to the west coast in less than two weeks now
Let's hope MINI USA / R.A.Events pull the last threads together quickly

Have to figure that out yet. I have to get back up to speed on whats's going on since I was not expecting to make it. I don't know if I'll go to CT or not. We're not moving that weekend, but the following one so I don't know how much time beyond the three day weekend I'd be comfortable taking.
I'll likely have to research this weekend and decide. Also gotta make some reservations.

Ok, now this thing is gettin greally interesting.
From the MTTS site... "'MAXIM' magazine models are joining the journey! Two female 'MAXIM' models will drive along in a MINI awaiting MINI Takes the States motorists at the end of each day's drive. They’ll be on hand to help MINI Takes the States participants relax and unwind with chair styled massages.
Hubba Hubba!

Friday drive down to Charlottesville via Skyline Drive
Has anyone started coordinating a drive DOWN to Charlottesville so we meet up with the MTTS coming in from West VA on Friday, Sep 1st?
I thought about leaving around lunch time from MoS / Wegmans, heading out I-66 and going straight down Skyline Drive to I-64 and then East to Charlottesville.
I'm not sure what time the "festivities" start at the Omni Charlottesville, but I thought I remember 5p?
Also, for KD, I saw that Business2.0 Magazine is providing 500 free tickets but I can't tell if they will be handed out at the park or if we can get them that morning/previous night before we start the leg.
Any thoughts?

On the KD thing - I saw that, too, about first-come, first-served. But I've got to think that MINI wouldn't want to wind up with it's MTTS participants showing up from Charlottesville and not getting some of the tickets. (I imagine, with 500 tickets, I'm probably worried about nothing).

Well according to the MTTS site there are only ~680 people registered for the leg that has the KD part. I would imagine that not all the people are going to show up so you can probably safely assume they will have tickets for almost everyone.
