So is it possible to make it from Chicago to LA without stopping to see all of the roadside oddities in 4 days. I know it’s still early but is there a hotel, motel list around yet for Chicago. Or do we know the Host Hotel for the event for that city.

The drive according the J/C (who does it all the time) can be done in 3.

As for host hotels, we haven't gotten those details yet. Don't worry, as soon as we do we'll be passing them along!

Haven’t checked in with you guys in a while, timing may just be perfect. I traded you some pics Todd for a WRR Poster in Zandvoort. Got it hanging proudly in my hallway.

Just got my Rauno Aaltonen pics from Mini United Framed, put a little dent in my credit cards for Mini United, was worth every sheqel. here we go again. Kinda like a roller coaster ride eh!? See you in the Windy City, Vince and Paul

Four days between Chicago and L.A. event. That's an easy drive. It can be done in three days- I've done it before in my Cooper. (even less if you alternate drivers)

Of course, who knows what fuel prices will be by then.

Great to get a little insight. Do have to chuckle though with the comment that they are hitting area's they haven't before when it comes to LA. Think it will be a decent sight and does have a massive population of Mini's. However as a Pacific NW person not looking forward to a 10+ hour drive to the closest event.

I actually was one that did vote for the 4 regional events. What I still would have loved to see is a little bit different. 4 regional events on a weekend, followed by a road trip over the week to a central event on the second weekend. This would capture people not wanting to leave their regions, those that want the drive and those wanting one huge party. It would also hit the greatest number of Mini owners.
