 What started as a hare-brained...  What started as a hare-brained idea by a bunch of magazine editors has grown to become one of the countrys premier automotive events. Why? Because aside from all the flash and dazzle, all the contests and concerts, all the celebrity guests and professional rod builders, the Power Tour is, at its heart, about the fun of driving bitchin cars. And being with other people driving bitchin cars. Its just too cool to miss. To register online, Click Here See you there! |
With Power Tour 2001 rapidly approaching, we couldnt think of a better way to get in the mood for a cross-country adventure than to relive some of the high points from previous Tours. So we dug into our photo archives and talked to some of Hot Rods staffers, both past and present, to get a little perspective on this massive event. What kind of perspective, you ask? Consider this: On the first Power Tour in 1995, only 16 cars started out in Los Angeles to make the long haul to Norwalk, Ohio, and half of them were Hot Rod project cars or cars driven by magazine staff. By comparison, on last years tour some 500 people drove 300 vehicles from California to Florida. Thats more than a 1,800 percent increase in just five yearsif only our IRAs had that kind of growth!
