Any PFF People showing up?
Speculation has it @ anywhere from 200 cars to 2,000 people?
Newton has 'The Iowa Speedway'. the first kick off stop on the 'Power Tour" on the first weekend in June.
I may be working at the Iowa Speedway, or as a Chamber o' Comerce Ambasidor, or as a local bouncer at a Beer Garden?

I don't think 'O'l Paint' is up to the Job.

Ol' Paint, 88 Base coupe auto.
Turning white on top, like owner.
Leaks a little, like owner.
Doesn't smoke....... OK, we're trying to quit.

Newton is a town of about 15,000 and mid west friendly.
If this event is Iowa Speedway only?
http://www.iowaspeedway.com/Default.aspx
Or Newton Chamber O' Commece
http://www.experiencenewton.com/
Or Score Board Bar & Grill?

This will be my third Long Haul Power Tour. I picked up the 07 Power Tour for the last three days. I can't touch Phil's PT record as he has been on them since 99.

There may be 2000 long haulers.. I'm staying in Grinnell, Ia as the motel prices in Newton were outrageous. The captive audiance senerio. The available room were all booked when I was trying to make reservations in October-November.

Official driving directions..

Looking forward to Power Tour. Leaving for Iowa in a week. Taking Phi's SC3800 Fiero. My/your T-top is staying home this year

Had the T-top out at a couple of cruise nights last week though. Nothing like a T-top on a warm spring evening.
