When boxing up some stuff to move, I came across CDs MINI gave us early on for MTTS and also some custom ones from some KC Mini drives, a step up from a mixtape.

Thanks, everyone! The RSVP list is a BIG one. This will be a lot of fun.
If you have a two-way radio, please bring it. It will be helpful to keep everyone as together as is possible with over 25 cars. If you have a radio to share, that's helpful, too.
If you can also bring a couple of $ per person, that would be awesome. The 2nd and 3rd donut shops required that we pre-order an assortment of donuts, which I've done and paid for out of my pocket. Instead of charging registration for everyone, this is easiest for me.
We also need a few volunteers:
Drive Group A Leader: Johnna
Drive Group A Sweeper:
Drive Group B Leader:
Drive Group B Sweeper:
While the route is pretty straight forward, having sweepers for each dozen or so cars would be good in case anyone gets off course or needs anything.
See you all Sunday morning bright and early!

Not too late at all, added you to the list.
There may not be donuts at stops 2 and 3 in Clinton and Springfield for the few of you who RSVP’d after April 2nd. I pre-ordered for 48 and we are a bit beyond that. It will all work out!

According to Google, there's three charging stations in Clinton, MO, which is where one of the donut shops is at. There's also a charger in Creighton, MO which is kind of between Harrisonville and Clinton, if you need it. There's also a charger in Bolivar, MO which is roughly halfway between Springfield and Clinton.MichaelC wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2024 6:37 pmNot really--I was just curious about scoping out chargers along the route or even alternate routes to see if I could reach those destinations with my SE..even though that is not recommended.ragtopday Johnna wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2024 5:36 pm The second donut shop is 54 miles from the start point. The third donut shop is 92 miles from the second. Does that help a bit?
If the route/destinations are meant to be a surprise or "for participants only", that's fine.
I was at the Springfield Bucees last week and the electric charging stations weren't finished yet.

All the chargers in Clinton are Level 2, which would take me about 45 minutes to charge up just enough to get to the DC fast charger in Osceola. But that charger is CRAZY expensive--it would cost $36.90 to recharge enough there to make it to Springfield (adding another 38 minutes)...so I'd be arriving at least an hour later than everyone else (when they're ready to leave or already gone) and spending more than you would on gas.Counterfit_Mini wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 5:46 pm According to Google, there's three charging stations in Clinton, MO, which is where one of the donut shops is at.

So I could definitely make that trip in my SE, but it would take me longer than the rest of the group and require me to charge at what I am certain is the most expensive DC fast charger in the midwest.
