WRAPUP
Two groups of MINI's converged downtown for a quick Channel 7 photo shoot before heading on to the Auto Show. We were treated to breakfast snacks and drinks and had a chance to talk with Fireball Tim and his 500 horespower twin-turbo charged, supercharged, nitro drag car.
The rest of the Auto Show was a blast, and we had the huge advantage of being inside before the main doors opened.
HUGE thanks to Chris W. from MINIUSA for making this all happen for us!!! Thanks for Dustin for leading one of the drive legs, and getting a film crew out there!
Here is the Channel 7 news clip.. Thanks Taylor!
Here are the Auto Show Drive pictures from Greg and Dustin.

For those who cannot make the show, be sure to check us out on the Live webcam (North Hall East View)
***************************************
The CMMC (along with MINI USA and the Chicago Auto Show) are proud to bring you the show before the show.
MINIUSA has arranged for CMMC members to get in to the Chicago Auto show before it opens to the general public on Saturday February 11th.
Chris Weiler from MINI USA will be on hand to answer questions and show off what is on display for 2006 from MINI. You'll also be set loose to see the show before the usual madness descends on McCormick Place.
