Hot Rod Power Tour

Post by spl310 »

I'm curious, has anyone ever taken a Roadster on the Hot Rod Power Tour?

Always wanted to do it.
But not in a Datsun.
I think you'd need something like this to participate

There are not very powerful cars on the tour. Yeah the horsepower addicts will look down their noses on a stock car, but screw them.

LOL. Not concerned with power or modifications. I always thought it was more of a Muscle Car event. Don't think I've seen any Japanese cars highlighted in the media or coverage.

When I get my Pro-Touring Nova I will go!

It is a hot rod event. I am sure that some jerks will make comments, but that being said, I still think that it would be fun.

It’s bad to the bone. The guy that painted my car built it. It’s a piece of art!
