Car at the Daytona Speedway/Hot Rod Power Tour
Well I just got back from doing the "Long Haul" on the 2011 Hot Rod Power Tour with my 1983 Trans Am "25th Anniv. Daytona 500" pace car...and may I add that we made it back in one piece, and the only problem is that the rear end was acting up (chattering around corners and tires were hopping)...I've been told that I need to flush it, then add new fluid and GM posi additive. Other than that and the front wheels yellowing from the brake dust, the car performed flawlessly on the 4000+ mile trip! Anyways, on to the pictures. Enjoy!

Wow your car was really looking good on PT man. I have never really taken a look at those cars but, that car really pulls it off. It looked awsome outside Ron Jons in those pictures.
Man I had a depressing day cleaning mine up today. All kinds of new rock chips. Oh well. I imagine the rear quarter panels woul be better if it were not for the super star burn outs:-)

Thanks Dave! Your car looked awesome as well! Haha, yeah, the Power Tour takes a toll on some cars. It didn't do too bad on mine except the rear end.

Both of your cars looked great when I was looking. Brodie, the car looks awesome in front of the speedway. Nice pics.
