MTTS day 4 - driving, rain and Sandia race track
Today was spent driving, mostly on I-40 which is long, straight but quite scenic …
We stopped a couple of times to take pictures …
We found and passed some other MINIs, or had them pass us …
And we got some serious rain, which demonstrated the need for a rear wiper!
Eventually we reached Sandia race track and unloaded the GPs - then on to the track!
Some track video (both on the track and from the stands) is on GBMINI.net
The end of the day was spent very tediously having a photo shoot set up on the track, with the MTTS tour bus and lots of MINIs - should have been fun but there was “micro-management” parking control, complaints if we took pictures because we were in the way, and a lack of communication leading to chaos … I hope the results were worth it!

Who is driving that bus???? Nice line on track - they must have had special MINI training to handle that baby!
Again, super enjoyable pics!
