Hot Rod Power Tour 2024

For those interested, it was recently announced that this year's tour will be Jun 10th - June 14th. Starts at Bowling Green KY, moves onto Nashville TN, Louisville KY, Columbus OH, and Indianapolis. Lots of drag racing and autocross action in the schedule.
Website for all the details is at Motor Trend Magazine.or Hot Rod Power Tour 2024.

So who's going?

Already registered and ready! Subframe connectors on, new shocks, springs and struts. Hopefully, a little better ride and handling than last year!

Re: Hot Rod Power Tour 2024

If any of you happen to spot a Jamaica Yellow '92 Firebird convertible running around on the Tour, it'll be me. I doubt there will be more than one of those so I should be easy to spot! Introduce yourself.

I stilI need to make some more improvements to the car, like primarily a paint job and getting the fuel gauge working again, but recently bought a new convertible top so I wouldn't get rained on during the trip. The old one was really ragged and the back window was gone. That part alone should add a lot to the enjoyment of driving.

Power Tour: I heard from a close friend that didn't get his vacation approved on time that the 3000 Long Hauler tickets sold out real quick, like a couple weeks after the initial introduction, so you're down to city by city entries now. You can still go to everything on those, you just won't get the Long Hauler hardware at the end if that was your thing.
