That makes for a really cool tour.

Eric,
Some thoughts on driving the PT from a former Pro Rally driver/navigator and 3 time long hauler.
When the route is published get a map and figure where you are going each day. Take each days route and blowup the instructions so that if you put them on a clipboard that driver and passenger can read them from either seat. Plus have each days instructions separate from the others.
A GPS system helps. In the past some PT'ers have published a GPS route. I have a GPS in the car and use it mostly to find the venue and hotel. I turn off the voice which my co-driver calls Gertrude. She is disturbing. Plus buy an Road Almanac or individual state maps. Hope this helps.
Nick

For some reason, the HRPT Google Map is messed up for me so I made a couple of maps using these sites:

Bristol in 2009 was the drag strip for the event on Friday & over to the Speedway on Saturday morning for the Long Hauler event. Giving away new Camaros & crate engines. No Saturday Long Hauler events anymore & no free car or engine give-aways anymore....when you got a fast car, you think you've got everything.
