      Denise,
      Are you still looking to get a broken in half sufboard from Florida to the Nashville, TN area cheaply?

So far, I have really enjoyed the posts of yours that I've read so far (especially since we obviously shared the same Dad with respect to our control line plane crash). Looking forward to meeting you out there somewhere ...
        ;D
        Below is listed kinda a year in review for most of the events I attended in 2007. You'll also note that I had plans to attend the BilletProof Florida gig in this March BUT I haven't been able to find a flight outta Detroit for less then $500 so that show for 2008 is on the back burner unless something decently priced comes along. That event would have been the one we could have meet at. Do you ever get to any of the GoodGuy events?

        By the way, you can always recognize Denise, she's always the one with the biggest smile! ;D Man that girl always has fun!

            I'll see what I can round up from my surfin' buddies.
            Anything in particular you are looking for?
            What is the application?
            Since I surf whenever there are Hurricanes offshore, I usually have a few broken boards, but I have already repaired all of them. This season was a no-show (which I won't complain about, cause I'm tired of using a chainsaw to cut up the downed trees).

              Re: Hot Rod power tour

              I have th eboard already, it's at a buds house in Jacksonville. I'm looking for transportation from Jackson FL to Nashville, TN where the guy that is touching up my paint with repair and paint it to match my car.

              On the HAMB alot of people particpate in what we call HAMB relays and if someone is traveling from one area to another they might carry parts for someone else. The stuff I have had in the back seat area of Big Olds (before interior) in mindboggling.

              So at this point I have two boards available to me, just have to get them to me here in Detroit or to Nashville.......thanks for the offer though!

                Cool. My sister lives in Jacksonville and comes down here regularly. I'm going on this years PT and could possibly bring it to Little Rock with me. Send me a PM with your buds address and maybe we could do something for you.

                    Oh sorry Denise, I didn't understand the timeframe constraints.
                    Good luck with your Detroit Autorama Tiki Lounge display.

                      As a Noob to the tour and US car shows in general, whats usualy at the showgrounds? Im guessing the usual car show deal with lots of rows of cars but what else can we expect? any swap meets etc?

                        All the new stuff vendors travel from one stop to the next so you see the same vendors at each stop....Flowmaster, Holley, Elderbrock, the same ones I see at all the NSRA and GG events. I have never seen a swap meet at a stop on Power Tour, although I haven't been in a few years.

                        Personally after checking out the vendors the first day I usually spent the rest of the stops chatting with people and checking out cars. The vendors were never a really big part of PT in my book.....unless there were cute guys at the booths. Flowmaster usually had the cutiest. ;D
