Anyone else out there looking forward to the Power Tour? I know it's still early, but I am ready to get going right now! How many of you guys are going? Last year I just met up with it near Chicago and spent the day and now I'm hooked.

I will be meeting up with it in Indianapolis. I was going to head to Milwaukee to start but I found out that Dukesfest 2005 was the weekend of June 4-5 in Bristol, TN which is on the way to Nashville so I decided to go there instead, then head to Indianapolis to catch thePower Tour from there to Birmingham, then back up to Nashville for Chevellabration.

i'm going to start off in milwaukee. maybe we can meet up and cruise in a group. if anyone else chimes in i will make it to indianapolis and then head back home.

I thought it started in Green Bay this year? I am going to try to get my brothers goat back together, and hope the body shop can fix the woes a drunk driver caused my chevelle last year in time to do the first leg from GB to Springfield, funny thing is I mentioned it to my old man, and he says hes gonna fire up the vette to make the first leg of the tour as well for a father son, son trio. I cant wait, hope to see you guys out there. Jason

Dukesfest sounds like a good time. I'm going as far as Indy, but one of my friends is trying to get me to go to Kentucky. I told him maybe I'll play it by ear and do that. It just sucks with 4:10 gears and no overdrive. Boo hoo for me. Hey, how big of an event is Chevellabration?

Count me in, sounds like a great time to caravan to Nashville. Starts right here in beer town at Miller park, oughta be a real cooker.

Milwaukee, to Springfield, to Indy & then to Nashville, then two days later is Chevellabration. Unbelievable perfect timing!

Call me & lets get together, we'll have one big Chevelle caravan to Nashville.

I plan on finding someone to drive my truck & enclosed trailer to Nashville for those not so nice days, if anyone needs space in the trailer, just ask.

1952 Chevrolet 4 door Deluxe Sedan with a 216.5ci in line 6 with the last RAJO (RAcine JOe) Power Cylinder Head that never went to production, designed by grandfather in the 1940's. Joe designed, built & sold all over the world performance heads during the 10’s, 20's, 30's & 40's starting with an OVERHEAD VALVE CONVERSION HEAD for the Model T Ford flathead. Joe drove in the FIRST INDY 500 in 1911 as car # 8 & was known nationally in racing circuits as "The Flying Dutchman".

Watch for my SS496 Chevelle as a pace car at Indy in 2011 (100 years after Grandpa Joe) IF THEY WILL LET ME !

I thought it started in Green Bay this year? They started a tradition of beginning the Power Tour in the city where it ended the previous year. But city officials, the police, and Lambeau Field gave them such a hard time they said, rather vehemently, that they would not return to Green Bay.

I am planning on participating in the Power Tour again this year since it's going through Nashville the week of Chevellabration. Should be a good time.

I'm in also, from Milwaukee to Nashville, CB 05.
