"Power Tour" is not brand specific to anything. It is a HotRod magazine tour that has been going on annually for years.

Re: Power Tour 2012

Did you make it? I saw a Syclone that was stock looking in the Muskegeon Pics ... last digits 568 on the license plate. :)

You will be in St Louis Tomorrow ... I will be there , but not in the Syclone.

If I see your truck I will stop to say HI !!! ---

Re: Power Tour 2012

There must have been 2 or more Syclones this year. The one I saw on the Hot Rod site had polished stock wheels with black inserts.

I saw your truck TODAY ... you were parked in the back by the bleachers and had black zr1 wheels.

Very nice truck!!! :) ---

Re: Power Tour 2012

Yup that's us! Cool pic!

Truck has been great so far. We leave Stillwater, OK today for the final leg into Arlington, TX. 17 mpg the entire way dead on.

Mods are C5 Z06 brakes front, Baer discs rear, rpm coil overs, beltech rear leafs, CAI, custom exhaust, sound system, momo wheel, Gaylord bed carpet, and a couple of other small things. I love it.

We trailered it up to Detroit for the start of the tour. And I wrapped the front with that adhesive plastic to protect the front end. Well, when I pulled it off...the paint on the front bumper came with it in spots. So I'll be having the cladding redone once I'm back home. Oh well.

I'll be doing it again next year. Awesome experience!

Sorry I missed ya. I shoulda posted my phone number or something.

Re: Power Tour 2012

I got 17mpg on the tour too :)

Sorry to hear about the frontend.

How many miles are on your truck?

How many other Syclones did you run into?

Were all the towns as busy as the Saint Louis run ... I dont remember it being nearly as busy last year!!! ---
