Default Hot Rod Power Tour

Anyone been on one. They are in Florida in June and I'd like to cruise in the Buick. I'm trying to find info on the event with no luck. Its $68 to register. Do I have to race or can I just cruise?

Looks pretty cool.

You can just cruise. My fiancee and I, Nine Ball, and a group of friends all went on the tour for the last two years (others more than that). Its a lot of fun You don't have to race, in fact you don't have to cruise the entire way. If you do cruise the whole way, you get the "Long Hauler" award at the end of the trip.

Power Tour is awesome. Its THE car event of the year. There are so many badass cars, you won't be able to see them all in one day. I would highly, HIGHLY recommend that anyone even remotely close to a Power Tour stop go take a look.

Ditto. You will see cars that you will not see anywhere else. The people are awsome, so much fun after the show back at the hotels. You also can race if you want to at the venues with a track.

He is right..went in 00,01,02,05 and am probably going again this year...for us it's a Power Tour there and back also.....did almost 11,000 miles last year, but we went elsewhere after the tour.You will never get enough of it once you have been once. Cars,cars,cars , and you get to see them in motion instead of just at a show sittin' pretty.!!

I really want to do it, but I'm going to have to wait until they come back out to the West Coast.
