I wondering how many long haulers do the route. Sort of the point IMO. When we got there I couldn’t believe how many long haulers were there already. This morning no one is moving at this hotel yet. Rolling out in 5!
Like @69L48Z27 said, it was slow going. But we left from the official start at 8:30ish.
I also have to apologize to @Charles Cook
When we got there it was so late that another member was just getting ready to leave. We rushed over and caught him and then I got caught up in getting "validated" and such. I just had a "senior moment" and missed contacting Mike. I'm bummed out because it would have been fun to meet. By the time I got back to my phone, Mike had left. Sorry - I screwed up.
Long hauling and getting your old car out was the point of power tourI wondering how many long haulers do the route. Sort of the point IMO. When we got there I couldn’t believe how many long haulers were there already. This morning no one is moving at this hotel yet. Rolling out in 5!

Wife and I did coast to coast and back to Nevada in a 67 Dart. YES is was a trip !!!I can only imagine how much doing it in a classic would add to the experience.
Yeah, doing a cross country trip in a classic car adds a dimension where people love to interact with you and you are "cool" everywhere you go.I took the wife and family on a trip out west last summer, the wife and I enjoyed it so much that I told her once the kids are grown her and I are doing it in the Charger. We left Ohio across the northern states to the Badlands, then to Black hills, Yellowstone, Tetons, Bear lake, Bryce canyon, Zion Canyon, Grand Canyon, Mesa Verde plus other little adventures along the way... What a memorable trip!

My life will then be complete!Meeting me at Carlisle next month will more than make up for it.
You can't be in a hurry because everyone wants to talk. Not a bad thing. Slow down and enjoy !Yeah, doing a cross country trip in a classic car adds a dimension where people love to interact with you and you are "cool" everywhere you go.
Highly recommended!
Looks like an effective, efficiently operating cooling system is mandatory. I plan on doing this soon, God willin and the crick don't rise.
Yes, that is the biggest thing, make sure your engine doesn’t overheat. So many cars go out that wayLooks like an effective, efficiently operating cooling system is mandatory. I plan on doing this soon, God willin and the crick don't rise.

100% There were lots of casualties from sitting in very hot weather and crawling forward a foot at a time for an hour! This is definitely a TEST for how well your car cools.Yes, that is the biggest thing, make sure your engine doesn’t overheat. So many cars go out that way
