Put in for your vacation time now and mark your calendar for June 9th through the 13th. During these dates, you can take part in the biggest car show and joy ride in the world, better known as The Hot Rod Power Tour.
This year will be the 31st time a group of car people of this size have followed each other through state after state. Each year the route changes along with the designated stops. Just because there will be several thousand cars attending, does not mean you have to stick bumper to bumper to the vehicle in front of you. Some participants will have their own miniature time trials, while others will take their time and enjoy the scenery.
Beginning in Indianapolis, there will be two stops in Indiana, one stop in Michigan with the finale being in Norwalk, Ohio. From drag racing to autocross, there is plenty of high octane action at each destination. If you want to slow it down a bit, you can enjoy either a walk down the manufacturer midway, take part in the meet and greet of some well known automotive faces, or lounge in front of the main stage to the sound of live entertainment.
