Did you realize that your post count is half what mine is - yet you've only been a member for 4 years whereas I've been a member for 10?? Just sayin'..... LOL



Now that Adrienne lives in Austin, Texas... how hard to do you think it will be to get Gwen to want to go there... regardless of the mode of transportation.

1) Maybe so but you kick my butt in total characters per post. :D

2) The odds are somewhat dependant on how well you behave between now and then. Would Vegas give odds on it? :captain1:

Hey guys, we have a few spots left on the tour if your gonna go.

This tour will be dedicated to Jack From Rad Rides and will include some pretty cool rides that Troy built.

Also the Goodguys Street Machine of the year is invited at no cost to join the tour thanks to George Poteet.

I wish you all safe travels on the road tour in honor of Jack! He will be missed. We had a blast last year. It was an amazing opportunity to cruise and hang out with some of the best builders and people in the industry. Well done Goodguys in all your planning. This year's route looks amazing!

Driving on the track at FT Worth is a chance of a lifetime.

Ed, is this still the route?
Less than a month away!

I did the tour and it was a blast. Met some great people and saw some great collections of cars and other stuff. Drove thru the Colorado Rockies and I think we were at 12,500 feet with no guardrail on a two lane road. If you go over the side you drop for two miles. You are up above the clouds. Amazing. I was worried about a car tour driving slower than I like but that was not the case at all. There were fast and slow and we all got to the same places. Ed was a great host and his selection of hotels and collections etc were great. A few people broke down but I think we got them all back on the road without too much trouble. Some of the shops we toured jumped in and repaired the broken cars and were happy to help. After I get caught up I'll post some pics but put me down for next year.:trophy-1302:
