Thats awesome this year how it's going from Arkansas (my home state) to Wisconsin (next to where I live now). I'll definitely be getting on the Power Tour this year. Just gotta get the car ready now.

I am going for the Long Haul again this year. This will be my 6th long haul! Always a blast! I will have quite a long haul before and after the Power Tour though being from NC, but it's worth it.

Most of the travel is not on the interstate highways. You get to see alot more of this great county on good ol 2 lane highways. The tour is pretty cool and laid back. Local and state law enforcement regulate what is going on where ever the tour is. I am not saying that no street racing goes on but it is not a smokey burnout contest going on at every red light in every town either. The Cops in general have been pretty kool in my experiences with them. But if you show your azzz you can get busted. Getting busted a long way from home can be an adventure to say the least.

They give you a route but you don't have to take it. Alot of people take the interstate too. Either way you will be among a lot of rot rodders. I have video of my friend in about 30 street races last year in it. It's a blast.
