Beat the Dog Days of Summer during MINI TAKES THE STATES 2014

Is there anything better than driving cross-country during the dog days of summer?  Not unless you plan to drive cross-country in your MINI during MINI TAKES THE STATES (MTTS) 2014.  The biggest MINI road rally for owners held every other year, MTTS will begin in San Francisco on 7/26 and will drive through 18 states and 15 cities over 14 days, finishing the epic Motoring adventure in Boston on 8/8.

It’s not just driving, though.  During the course of the drive, MINI USA will provide its loyal owners and enthusiasts with genuine, once-in-a-lifetime motoring experiences, including daily activities. Check out a sneak peak of some of the fun activities planned for owners at the stops along the way on MINITAKESTHESTATES.com.

Don’t feel like making the full commitment?  That’s OK! MTTS participants can drive one or multiple legs of the route or go all the way.  Take a look at the route above and at our breakdown of rally events here to see which leg of the journey will work best for you!

Register: Registration costs $45/person, but children under 12 and dogs are free!  Paid registration will include a MTTS goodie bag and access to all MTTS events.  A portion of each registration fee will be donated to the Best Friends Animal Society.

So, gas your MINIs, rev your engines and prepare for the coolest cross-country rally ever!
