Another one under the belt.....All in All....it was a great "Journey"......we had Cold and Wind.....Rain....Clouds...Sunshine, Heat and a Cool Breeze......there wasn't any traffic jam's except for one that we managed to by-pass very quickly......the Venues were easy in.....easy out and sized correctly for the volume of cars except for maybe Somerset.......we stayed at Hampton Inn's along the way and everything was above average at each location......Except for Scott's minor repair issue with his car, there weren't any mechanical issues with any of the cars in our group.......Every day was a new adventure along the way.....the scenery in the south is also fantastic....Family Events that runs the Power Tour has routes planned out that are Scenic, yet flow the traffic volume very well......
The only problem with the Power Tour is that it's relatively early in the year and we get "Spoiled" with the enormity of the event and everything that go's along with it......Anyhow.....Met lot's of new people and made some new friends along the way......got to go for a ride in a certain un-named persons new car and was an "Unwilling" participant in a unauthorized display of unlawful acceleration on a Public roadway..
....My Son Chris that came with for the first time and drove the Chevelle now understands why we play with these "Old Junk Cars".....LOL.........All in All.....It's a Must Do thing.....
Anyhow......the #'s Car averaged around 18 MPG with it's 195 HP...Charley got sucked up into the Vortex on the Highway one day when I "Opened Up" both barrels...
But, more importantly......the Nova did what cars are meant to do.......Be Driven.......Here are some pic's when we got home, it's covered in Bug's and Dirty from rain and I'll spent today cleaning it, But......That's why God invented Soap.....Again.....If you can ever make it happen to Participate, you won't be Sorry....
356 more days..............
