Great work by DDB Paris and Unit 9 for Mini. They have done a mashup of Google Maps and facebook and put it all together with some nifty Flash work. Basically you install the facebook app, pick a Mini, choose any place on earth, and then either create a race circuit yourself or find one someone else has already made and race the car around the map. You can then challenge friends, post your times, and invite friends to join in. Was glad to get to make the first circuit in Cape Town. Go to http://www.facebook.com/MINI.france to try it for yourself.
