I heard 5,000 powertour registrants

I'd definately do a West Coast Tour. Thats one of the main issues about doing the Power Tour now for me. What is it, a week long. Not to mention having to come all the way back to San Francisco.

Just a thought but what if a bunch of the members from the forums got together to do their own sort of Power Tour but call it something else of course. Start off with a track day at Infineon or another location and keep it going from there. Every year these things get bigger, why not. Several members belong to numerous forums it wouldn't be too hard to get the word out. Setting up the events is a whole other subject for me though. Imagine a Lateral-G/Pro-Touring.com West Coast run. You've got to start somewhere. The East Coast would have their annual run along with the Midwest/South regions.

Saw you and datsbad when you backed in by Charley yesterday. You looked busy so I did not want to bother, but the car sounds and looks awesome. I took a picture of my son next to it. I am bummed that I did not get my car done, but you guys have a great (and safe) Power Tour.

It was finally great getting to meet the man, the myth, the legend. Thanks for taking the time to say hi. My son thinks your car is the best. He wants a 1/18 scale metal model of it!! Hope you guys have a blast on the tour !

(Hopefully the car will at least be ready for the Pigeon Forge run in Sept)

My guess is the Power Tour will be back to the West Coast next year or 2008.
The Tour has crossed the country to the East Coast and it's almost time for it for it to come back where it started.

My lord, More myth that legend. Great to meet you too. It is hard to keep up with everyone, and remember names with faces, but I usually get it, about the third try.....lol
The car did fine again today, just a blast to drive on the road.I hope to see you in the Forge in Sept.

There seems like less people this year then last. They did not sell the event out. I heard next year it will start in New Jersey and end in the Southwest. Anybody planning to do a mini tour....Don't have a track event on the first day. Have it the last day so if you break it you won't miss the trip.

Jake, you got a whole year now, get the car finished. I promise the power tour is about as much fun as you can have with your pants on.
It will be for you next year like it was for me this year. Hard to pass up when it is close to home. I am having a blast.
