Greetings From Power Tour!
Just a quick stop in a hotel lobby to say what's up from Power Tour. In Roanoke, VA right now. Literally thousands of cars and the coolest people ever. I suggest to anyone who wanted to do it this year that you make it a goal for next year. I"ll post more details when I get home but it's a blast. Looking forward to seeing some of you in PA tomorrow and NJ friday.

Yes white IROC with NJ plates....17" chrome IROC wheels. In the case of rain the show must go on. We've only had 10 minutes of rain on the whole trip so if we hit rain tomorrow or friday I won't be all that disappointed.
People literally line the streets in all the local towns and sit in their front lawns for hours watching and filming the cars coming through. Driving through VA today was the coolest cruise I"ve ever done. When I get home I'll post all my pics.
Next year we're planning on building a sweet wagon just for Power Tour. Space in the cars is at a premium. Can't wait to see some of you soon. Come find me or call my cell if you have the number.

Really wish now that my car was available and I had Friday off. Rolling in with hundreds, if not thousands of people would rock - well until the jam to get into E-town stretches for 7 miles and you burn gas while waiting. T-tops and the right tunes would make it worthwhile.

The M21 isn't going to help mileage much.
