Things that annoy you on Tour (and car shows in general)

[skullbucket]

Getting to the next stop and the best parking spots are takin up by 3 rows of old couples driving PT Cruisers and the hot rods are parked in a dirt field around the corner! (Louisville Kentucky)!

Nothing bothers me when I'm on the Power Tour. We drive toooo far to have our day ruined by some dumb a$$. So we don't let it bother us..I could use the long walk after sitting on my a$$ all day driving and drinking the night before..

Ok, where do I begin with this list.....

1) Preferred parking for the Long Haulers!! I can't tell you how frustrating it is when you drive 6-8 hours just to get to the venue and you can't even see the venue much less know where the stage is because you're parked miles away!!

2) The Route!! I'd like to enjoy a route where we're not running balls all out just to get to the venue on time. I remember Long Haulers being turned away in Indy last year because they shut the gates to the race track at 5:00. That is horse shit!! Just wait for this year, the leg between STL and Miami OK.

3) Keep the venue open later. If the routes are never going to get shorter, then at least extend the hours of the venue. Yes, we've all heard that they can't keep it open later because our sponsors have to start the tear down process, but what good are they, if we can't get there in time to buy anything?!!? Really, something has to give...

4) When we have drag racing, keep the damn track open. Do ya'll remember both drag strips last year?!?! They shut the track down by 6:00. Who wants to run their car down a track when ambient air temperature is over 100 degrees?!?! Closing the track down that early is horse shit!!

5) Autocross time. Why in the hell is the autocross so damn early?!?! I've missed it 2 years in a row because I was a long hauler and you had to be there by "X" time. Because the route was so freaking long, I didn't make it. Why? Because I was enjoying the "Power Tour" with some of my newest, bestest friends!!

6) Have I mentioned preferred parking for Long Haulers yet?!!?

7) Downtown venues- They suck!!! Does anyone remember Mobile?!?! Need I say more.....

8) Official lunch stops- As much as Family Events rakes in for this, because we all know it's about Money, why not throw in a lunch. It's been done in the past with some coordination, so I'm not sure why FE can't take it upon themselves to make this happen. After all, they're the ones getting rich off this deal.

I'm pretty sure that's my rant about the Power Tour. I don't really partake in car shows, but I do enjoy cruise ins.... Last time I'll mention it, Long Hauler Parking!!!

x2 brother man!

My favorite suggestion about Powertour will never happen and it's this;

Instead of 7 cities 7 days, how about 4 cities 8 days? That would give you an extra day per city to have an event ie:drag race/track day, fundraiser, or see the sites... The city would get a bigger boost in tourism as well.

Isn't that only a problem when the coolers empty upon entering a dry county?
