Now... If I did it with the '40..... that would be a stickers worth of fun!! LOL
I was there in a brand new Camaro. Challenging?, No. Fun?, heck yes! For me it's all about spending a week with fellow car guys and seeing some killer equipment. 7 cities in 7 days, what better vacation for a car guy?

My hats off to the guys doing it with older iron, but it just wasn't in the cards for me.

If you have done the long haul, my guess is you'll understand those of us that think being there is more important than what you are driving.
