power tour is starting in Madison WI this year and comin down through chicago into indiana and i figured its perfect for this region. It would be awesome if we could represent TGO somehow and maybe even get some magazine exposure. i plan on goin to the racine meetup sunday june 7th. its 25 bucks to register for one day and $65 if u wanna do the long haul + u get free $hit(powertour banner and plate frame) so i thinks its worth it.... ps no trailers allowed for all u racecars...coughcough xndbl3

I'm thinking of doing the first two or three stops. Had a great time in '04 and '05. Just can't beat hitting the highway with 3,000 of your closest gear-head friends. Would love to go all the way to Bristol but too many other things to do this summer.

the power tour is something everyone should attend at least once in their life time....
tons of things to do and cars to see...

I went with my gta and my uncle went his prototype blackbird, back in '05...it was a wicked good time...we even had over night reservations at a hotel near the milwaukee stadium for the power tour on sunday...
I want to say i wanna do it again this year but only if time and if i get a new job permits me to do so...
My uncle is planning on doing the "long haul" and i wish i could do it too...

I met up with Steve (Poz) up at the show, another guy who own a yellow bird up there and a couple of 3rd gen camaros....would be great if we did represent for our thirdgen nation!

Went in 07, had a blast. I'll be hookin up in Michigan and goin the rest of the way to Bristol. There were alot of 3rd gens in 07, hope to see some of you guys there. Keep me posted if you get anything together for the TGO members....

ok,im a dumb mofo i guess. whats the "power tour" and how/why/where do i sign up?

The where>>>>>

The why>>>>>


As for the how, its very easy, give them some cheese and your registered. Took about 5 minutes for me to sign up... Now the problem is going to be your (and any other late registers) accomodations. I was told I got the last room in Sommerset KY back in January. Maybe they lied, but who knows. I also hear some other cities are filling up close to the venue spots. I am going Dayton to Bristol + a bonus day in Knoxville for TOD. As of now I am taking the Corvette but I could be swayed... the IROC needs tires but I could do that anytime.

I did the Long Haul in 2004 from Texas to Green Bay was by far one of the defining trips of my life. I cant wait to get my car done and Do it again!!

With that said I will probably hit up one or two of the stops this year.

Kevin

Me and a couple buddies are planning on doing this. I should at least make a few stops

good to hear so many are interested! maybe we could get some kind of sticker to reperesent tgo maybe with our user names

We should get a poll going of how many TGO people would go and see what kind of deal we could get on the stickers.

im in

Im really late to sign up, but i wanna sign up for the long haul but not go to all the stops, anyone know?

Just head up to Madison Saturday. They'll be glad to take your money and sign you up.

Unless it's absolutely pouring, I'll be in Madison. Not sure about Racine yet.

anyone one coming to st joe indiana thinking about goin its my hometown I will prob be out there didnt even realize the power tour was coming here till I heard it on the radio today lol

What time are they expected in Racine?

Its lil less than 2 hrs for me and I'm willing to go if I know someone elses will be there or meet up with on the way?

Anyone?

There is a possibility that I will be headed up there Sunday, but something might happen tomorrow so my plans might change

Jeremy if u wanna meet up to cruise that day, if I can make it, where would wanna meet up?

I went into a holding pattern until I see ow the rain develops......................

Everything I've done/wanted to do this year has been wet

Ya same here, just depends on the 'R' word
