Default Power Tour Rochester

Anybody that left Rochester early truly missed quite an event. There was a non-sponsered burnout competition for a good hour on 16th St by Holiday Inn South. It was quite a show and cool the cops let it fly for as long as they did. I would have to say that my buddy in the "woody" wagon probably ended with top honors. Quite a show. I am sure there will be some pictures floating around of this.

Wish I would have seen that. We were sitting at our hotel and could hear it in the distance. What did the cops say? Did they hand out any tickets??

Well thats good that the cops were cool about it. I was messing with a Mustang for a while, that was pretty fun. We were both first at the stop light, so we kicked it down till about 50 till we had to slow down, I was spinning the whole time. He was stayin at the same hotel as us, so we were talkin later. We should have raced, but he said once he heard my car he knew he would have got beat pretty bad, he had a stock 4.6 with exhaust/intake and gears. It looked and sounded good though.

Default Burnout Pictures from Rochester

There has to be somebody out there with some pictures and/or videos from the burnout. There was way too many people out there not to have any. Looking to find videos and/or pictures no matter how good or bad of the quality from there.

I saw a post on the Hot Rod forums that some people have video and pictures but no links have been posted.

On a local forum (TCstangs) there were a few pictures posted but that was mostly of the marks and I am assuming was taken the next morning.

Pass the word around and see what we can get posted.
