Hotrod power tour question.
 
Im planing on attending the power tour in 2008, and i had a few questions in preparation for it. first question is how much money do u guys usually go threw on the power tour. gas, hotel, food and what not. im trying to figure out what kinda money imma need to gather up for the tour. im also wondering what u guys did mainly for food and housing. did everyone get a hotel room, or sleep in their cars or tents.what should i do to prepare myself for this years power tour. i plan on making it this year in my nova, and my dad will be going along with his truck. we have tryed the past 3 yrs but unexpected happened everytime. hopefully we will have better luck this year.

We stayed in your average hotel each night. I guess the average for each night was somewhere in the $100 ~ $120. Miles traveled seemed to average around 250 miles per day, so factor in your mileage. As for food, our group had one good meal each night, ate the continental breakfast at the hotel, and lunch was hit or miss.

I don't think Power Tour is for me. Not enough food. :D

lol, actually, there were a few places last year that provided a free lunch. It wasn't a huge meal, but the price was right. :D

The night in Memphis we had ribs, they were good. That was quite the place... can't remember the name of the joint, though.

Me, you and big Jim would starve to death!! We would definately have to find the donut shops along the way...

Maybe next year.

What do you guys do about leaving your cars out front of the hotel??? I could not do it......I would be a nervous wreck. I dont see how you guys with 100K plus rides do it......:_paranoid

most of the approved hotels have security set up for the cars. We've never had a problem.
