    Unit and I are no match for Power Tour. No stamina for a trek like that. However we have signed up and committed to the Cars and Cones thing coming up. We'll see how long we last, especially after a weekend at Gear Head Inn to start it off.

            Just think about that scenic drive across Kansas! I am 76 and this will be our 15th PT, 9th LH, all in Camaros. And for the last few years, about two weeks after the PT, we head west in the '68 Camaro convertible. Prior to the Camaro, we went to the Rocky Mountains twice a year on our motorcycle.

                    Kansas! In 2010 it was 105+ degrees in Kansas. Probably 120 degrees in our non insulated 71 Gremlin Pro Rally car we took on the PT. But we did get a nice picture of the car
                    in the mag coverage. Frieburger has a ting for Gremlins.

                        Phil/Omaha, You and Wayne are going to be surrounded by "funny talking people" for a week in June while the HRPT is Down in Dixie. Y'all need to read your books on "How to Talk Southern".

                          Only 3-1/2 hrs to BG & 5 hrs from Charlotte back to Cleveland?

                            Wayne came all the way to south MS. for a week of speach lessons. I really think he wants to make the move south.....

                              Assuming Wayne can be taught to speak properly, how long do you think it will take him to adjust to the sunshine?
