It looks like that on June 11th the Power Tour will be in Crown Point Indiana, I am assuming at the fair grounds. If this is true I will be there with out a doubt and if any TCGer's need a place to crash my house will most likely be open as I live literally across town from the fair grounds.

So Fuck Yea lets get this party started!

1/31 Update

Bru: OK, here's TCG Staff's plan. We have hotel rooms booked at the following establishments. The route should be around 600-700 miles round trip. Official routes haven't been announced, but they're typically back roads through small towns and off the major highways.

Wednesday June 11, Crown Point IN
Drive to Crown Point, Indiana and meet up with the Power Tour gang who would have just come from Norwalk. Event at Lake County Fairgrounds.

Wednesday night hotel: $129.00+tax, HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS & SUITES, 1773 Fountain Park Drive, Schererville IN 46375, complimentary breakfast, indoor pool, free parking (located 11 miles from venue)**Arrive June 11 / Depart June 12

Thursday June 12, Bettendorf IA
Drive from Crown Point to Bettendorf in the morning. (190 mi, 3 hours 6 mins) Do the event in IA at the The Isle Casino and party with the PT crew at the hotel. Besides the driving, hanging out eating pizza and drinking beer in the parking lot with 100 other power tour peeps is a blast.

Thursday night hotel: $119+tax, RESIDENCE INN, 4600-53rd Street, Moline IL 61264, complimentary breakfast, indoor pool (located 7 miles from venue) **Arrive June 12 / Depart June 13** There are 5 available from a total of 20. This hotel is away from the downtown area and has a parking lot within view of the rooms, unlike some of the hotels in the downtown.

Friday June 13, Wisconsin Dells
Drive from Bettendorf to the Dells. (189 mi, 3 hours 9 mins) Attend the Dell's event at the Chula Vista Resort.

Friday night hotel: CHULA VISTA RESORT, 2501 River Road, Wisconsin Dells, WI 53965, waterpark, free parking (located at venue)**Arrive June 13 / Depart June 14.

Drive back home from the Dells on Saturday, June 14.

It was easily the best car related thing I have ever participated in.

Completely, hands down, for damn skippy, hell yeah!

You folks who missed this have no idea how cool it was... no words can explain. You have to experience it for yourself!

We come loaded for bear too... able to fix damn near anything and the power tour staff and other folks attending are also very willing to help.... so don't be scared about taking your car out on this trip.

We had like a list of 30 people that said they were going and it ended up be me, Mook, Bru, and Eagle! Lmfao!

Not true - I long hauled '12 - ran into a few TCG folks at the Grand Rapids stop.

Either way - I recommend anyone that has any car to show up, even if you park in spectators. Bring your DD and hang out. It's like the largest moving car show ever!
