We spent the weekend checking out the Mini USA Ride and Drive in Grand Prairie, TX… The Mini’s in the program use the Enkei NT03+M in 17X7.5 +45 and make a great wheel and tire combination with the Yokohama’s. Check out the video bellow for a better explination from Hubie of ABF Motoring!

The 2010 ABF Performance Road Tour, presented by MINI USA and Yokohama Tire Corporation, features two-day events at major metropolitan cities around the United States. The ten city nationwide tour provides the participants with the opportunity to experience the handling, performance, and lifestyle that is MINI.

THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE

Attendees will be treated to the use of Auto-Cross type courses at each event. Ride along with professional drivers as they demonstrate the MINI’s handling prowess. Then take the driver’s seat and experience first-hand what makes MINI owners so dedicated to the marque

Customer satisfaction and VIP treatment are our first priority. Our professional staff of MINI Specialists are recognized and well respected by the MINI community and bring a high level of energy and fun to the events.

THE COMMUNITY

MINI owners are the most outgoing and friendly group of people around. They take pride in the individuality of the MINIs they drive. Come be lifted by their enthusiasm and see what makes owning a MINI so special.

So we’re giving you all a chance to show off what makes your car unique (or just see what others have done to their MINIs). Participate in the Car Show and win trophies and prizes in over twenty categories (from Best Cooper and Cabrio to Most Miles on the Odometer).
