So the tour is a drive together I assume. Sounds
like a good idea if done right.
Well a tour could be any number of things. A group of car
people traveling together for a single interest. Could be a
bunch of guys going NYC to LA cannonball style, could be
several groups of car heading in about the same direct with
each group separating to explore different interests and
gathering back up at the end of the day, and could even like
I said about everyone meeting in one spot and driving down
main street and going home. All a matter of who organizes it.
The most
popular is of course the Hot Rod Power Tour. I see no
reason (other than fundage) why the VCA can't rent a string
of tracks and allow us to hit one after another. I suggested
Limerock, Mid-Ohio, VIR, Sebring, and NPR for the east coast
crew. I'm not sure the going rate for renting these tracks per
day, but figure $15,000/each + emergency crews + insurance +
lawyers to give us permission and you're looking close to the
$100k mark - not including the 600 different brochures ViperHQ
will send out prior. And then there's hotels and food.
And that's just east coast.
Course a 10-day event covering each of these tracks (1 every
other day) might be worth $1,000 out of pocket if we can get
99 other guys to join in.
