Prepping For The HRPT
One trip on the Hot Rod magazine Power Tour, and you're hooked! At least, that's what happened to a couple of us, back in 1998. Now we're veteran Long Haulers, and the four of us have traveled the Tour from start to finish for the past several years.

The 2007 Tour begins in Cleveland, Ohio, on June 2nd, and ends in Little Rock, Arkansas. In between, we'll be visiting Kalamazoo, Racine, Springfield, Evansville, and Memphis, attending a HUGE car show (3000+ vehicles) in each of those cities.

Beginning May 29th, we'll be updating from the road daily, in typical Old Guys humor, documenting our adventures, and hopefully, including a few photos. And you're always invited to add your two cent's worth!

And here's a possible historic first...Sonny and I will both be taking our 1977 Cougar station wagon's, and there's already talk of a grudge match on the quarter-mile at Memphis Motorsports Park.

    I'm sure at least one of you guys trailers his car on the HRPT. I don't know of anyone who drives the whole way.

    I can assure you that none of us trailers our cars ANYWHERE. None of us even own a trailer!

    If you should ever see one of the Old Guy's cars on a trailer, you should notify the police department, because its been stolen!
