I did a couple stops last year and although the venues were frustrating with traffic jams, it was a blast to cruise with all those awesome cars. I'm planning to do the first couple stops for sure in 2015.

I've been waiting for a good route. I long hauled in 2012 and it was amazing. However these aren't doing it for me. Too many places I've already been. I'll wait it out for 2016.

I think it's hard for them to find venues that can handle this size event. Some of the stops last year were a complete cluster because they were not ready for the number of cars.

If anyone lives near the route I highly recommend checking it out.

I've always wanted to do this. I just never understood why a magazine based in socal could never plan something over here.

I will be going again this year...only missed one time (2014) since 2007. I agree though some of these stops are getting stale. I'd be cool with them starting in say Indy or St.Louis and heading straight west along route 66 or something.

Meeting some guys tonight to register and decide on hotel rooms. Anyone else decide to go?

So far I've got a '13 Vette Gran Sport, model A hot rod, 70's model Lincoln, 30's Chevy sedan, and one other guy (not sure what he'll drive) going with me.

Anyone have trouble getting hotel rooms booked? We got ours booked but of the 7-8 years I've gone I don't ever remember having this much trouble! Also don't remember spending this much on rooms! Bastards jack the rates up and rip off the tour participants...but its worth it ;)
