Muscle Car Road Tour!!!! Presented by Goodguys

[Goodguy Ed]

There has been some talk around Goodguys about putting together a Muscle Car Road Tour like the Rodfather tour we did last year for the pre-49 cars,

This tour would be more focused around race tracks and Muscle car shops and manufactures that we would visit along the way. Here is what we have put together so far.

Kick off the tour at the Goodguys home office in Pleasanton CA with a Lunch for everyone. We would then travel over towards Highway 1 to Monterey CA and run around Laguna Seca Raceway that afternoon. Spend the night.

The next day we would head down Highway 1 towards Paso Robles. There we would visit the Car musuem, a muscle car shop and head over to Button Willow to run around that famous race track. Head over to Ironwork Speed & Kustom for a shop tour to see what is being built. Spend the night in Bakersfield CA.

Leave Bakersfield head towards Lake Havasu City AZ. On the way run the track at Willow Springs or go to the GM proving Grounds. Get into Lake Havasu City AZ and head over to Premier Street Rods to see that fine facillity and have a dinner. Spend the night in Lake Havasue City AZ.

Leave the next day and head towards Phoenix AZ. There we would run around AZ Motorsports Park, Firebird Raceway, Visit Baer Brakes, See Ron Pratt's Car Colection, visit Penske Racing Musuem and head towards Globe AZ to spend the night.

Leave Globe AZ and see some of AZ's best back roads towards Gallup NM then onto Albuquerque NM to visit the Unser Musuem and a few shops before spending the night.

Leave Albuquerque NM and head toward Amarillo TX to see the Cadillac Ranch, Visit Mark Warricks fine collection of cars and a muscle car junk yard full of treasures. Spend the night in Amarillo TX.

Head south from Amarillo TX toward Fort Worth TX and spend the weekend running the AutoCross track at the Goodguys Fall Lone Star Nationals Events.

We are looking to put this together with all hotel rooms and some meals included for one price. If you think you want to be part of this or if you know a cool place along the way let me know. This will be limited to 50 cars.

It will be way cool to travel across the country with 50 muscle cars and magazine guys seeing the sites and driving around the coolest race tracks in the southwest part of the country.

We will keep you informed if we get this off and running and what the cost will be. Just pay for your gas and some meals and have the time of your life with car guys and gals just like you.

Let us know what you think.

Thanks Goodguy Ed

[SparkyRnD]

would be cool to have concurrent events, one starting from somewhere on the east coast (say North Carolina, Charlotte maybe) and one that starts in Cali, then have them both head towards the middle of the country. Could have both sides meet up at a final destination where east races west at a facility in the middle of the country.

[ChevelleNV]

Wish my car was done, I would so do this...

[Goodguy Ed]

We are working on doing something each year and having them start in different places and meeting at one event. This year it is just the one from our office to the TX event. This cruise is going to be really cool and a lot of fun.

Hope you guys can come on the tour..

Sorry I have been on the road doing events and didn't have a chance to reply...my bad.

The trip needs to be from start to finish with the 50 cars as that is how we are able to ge tthe rooms and let the stops know on food. It would be hard for us to have this moving up a down and give the right numbers to the stops and hotles.
Come to P-town and start with us!
