Was there a vr fd from Tennessee that came in with the large tour of cars to the local fairground?

 

That would be me. I was in the Hot Rod Power tour

 

rx7xj where are you located in East Tenn? I know most the owners and I dont think we know each other.

I saw your profile and noticed your 7 has the ls1 swap

Good to know. I will let you know next time we all get toghether.
Just trying to meet all the local 7 owners.

sorry the locals missed you out there rx7xj, the weather had been wet all week and nobody went out there. but one guy on another forum went and took a couple pics of your car and said it sounded like it had a swap. would've like to have seen it. did you go all the way down to kissimmee?

 

ah man. . . i got excited for a second there. ive always wanted to be in the power tour, but something about rotary engine and import just doesnt sound like a good participant!!!! i guess ill have to build a muscle car or something. . . poooooooooooooo

 

We did the Nashville, Birmingham and Tally stops only. We decided to head back after Tally due to the weather

 

FWIW, the 7 was received well by the muscle car crowd. I had several people wanting to buy the car on the spot

 

Only because it has a V8 swap.

 

Wow, I went to the one in Hot Rod Tour in B'ham, but it was kind of late and a lot of people were already leaving. Wish I could have seen your car, like to see the swap.

 

Dammit, and I thought it was because of my good looks



Yeah we got soaked (and damn near struck by lightning) during the storm and packed our stuff up at about 7.

 

Yeah I got there a hair over 7. The the event was bigger than I expected, even though I went late.

I would like to do the tour next year, what do people at every stop and is there anything special at the last stop?

 

Not sure if the last stop was any different than the earlier stops. The event is basically just a big cruise-in with lots of sponsors. Good clean fun, cool people, beer and lots of impressive big HP engines.

 

Are you sure it wasn't personality?

 

Yeah, pretty sure it wasn't
