2009 Power Tour

Anyone gonna make it to the Somerset,KY portion of the Tour? I'm gonna be down there on Thursday afternoon and was hoping to meet up with other TR guys.
 
found problem, now I want to pick up the rest of the tour. too bad it's not in the cards. maby I can sleep in the car. it should be warmer.
 
The Hot Rod Power Tour was a thing of beauty. I had never seen so many cars at the Fairgrounds. I watched an 03-04 Twin Turbo Mustang pull 781 hp on the dyno. I have a few pictures to post later. It was nice to meet Royal-T-Ltd and 2ToneWE4 on the tour. You guys are some long haulers. Just remember my motor pictures and shop are "Top Secret." I will try to make the tour next year and hang out with you guys along the way. Have a safe Power Tour!

I got to see a lot of the cars on tour Thursday. I was headed north on 75 out of Cincinnati. Didn't see any Buicks though. Wish I didn't have to freaking work:mad:
 
I stopped at Somerset yesterday and saw Royal-T leaving and I saw the Grey T parked and later driving around. Also saw a black T and a white T with red interior. I didn't bring out mine because the weatherman said thunderstorms...:mad:
 
Well.... today at Bristol was AWESOME [except for my drag passes] driving fast through the hills/mountains was awesome... and then i got a chance to drive 5 passes around Bristol Motor Speedway.... its totally different in person. HOLY **** ----> 36-38º inclines in the turns:eek: took 1-2 passes to get used to - cant imagine goin around at 130-150mph:eek:

took it down the track and couldnt make a complete pass. finally i noticed my fuel pressure wouldnt go above 50psi and then dropped so ..... YAAAAAY <----sarcasm i get to drop the tank and replace the fp when i get home!!!
 
Poor me sitting at home with baby #2 due any day. Wish I could have made it. 2010 looks promising though. Did they announce where it will end in 2010? Mom and dad are talking about taking the station wagon (pictured) and I "might" ride with them and leave the buick home.

I left the fairgrounds in South Bend on tuesday morning and didnt see any GNs but mine. I heard there were a few ahead of me, I guess they must just pick up people on the way. I made it to MIS and had to turn around due to idiots at work. I plan on doing a couple legs next year. It was one of the cooolest things I have seen in awhile. Anybody have an extra power tour sticker for sale as I didnt make it to Detroit. Thanks.

Who's SINFUL GN is that:confused: ;) Damn dude that car looks perfect. The stance is exactly what I'm looking for. It looks like all the time in the garage certainly paid off! I hope you get time to enjoy it this summer
 
Love all the photos keep them coming.

Waht was it like driving on Bristol motor speedway???? Pretty darn cool:smile:
 
The 5 laps around Bristol Motor Speedway were AMAZING!!! Only thing that sucked is the DAMN 4 door HEMI Charger wouldn't get the hell outta the way:mad: I thought about bump drafting and putting his a$$ in the wall!
