            Put in for vacation time now, because you won’t want to miss out on the 2013 HOT ROD Power Tour presented by Chevrolet Performance.



            Venues and routes will be announced later, but you can start planning your wardrobe now:



            Saturday June 1: Arlington, TX



            (but you knew that already, right?)



            Sunday June 2: Texarkana, AR



            (Texarkana is a city in two states, half Texas, half Arkansas.)



            Monday June 3: Little Rock, AR



            (Ever heard of the “Climber Motorcar”? It’s the only car ever manufactured in Arkansas. Maybe we’ll see one!)



            Tuesday June 4: Memphis, TN



            (Elvis and BBQ, what more do you need?)



            Wednesday June 5: Birmingham (Hoover), AL



            (The Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum is worth a visit!)



            Thursday June 6: Chattanooga, TN



            (The home of Coker Tire, you can expect a warm welcome here.)



            Friday June 7: Charlotte, NC



            (If you don’t know why Charlotte, NC is a cool place for car fans, you might be reading the wrong website.)

              Is official...

              HOT ROD is “where it all began,” as the first magazine to cover the hot rod culture. Since that time, HOT ROD has evolved into a brand devoted to everything from hot rods to restomods, barn finds to project cars and everything in between.

                      I had a chance to meet some of you on here at Wixom, St. Louis and Stillwater and on past Power Tours, all great poeple. Customwagon, Bob (sorry for flipping you off in the picture at Stillwater), and several others. I really dont post much, but like to lurk. Having said that I am willing to hold the finish line party at my place in Mooresville NC, about 30 minutes from the Speedway. Plenty of hotels close by.

                              I'll be hitting Priceline for as many $45 or less 3 star plus hotel rooms as I can get. This year I was 4 for 7 with two cheap hotwire rooms thrown in and a good ass pounding for the room rate in Muskegon.

                                Damn, the rumors were incredibly close to having the route right, sub Birmingham for Nashville, that was it.
