It does not always happen like that...case in point 06 tour started in Orlando Fl. and ended in Englishtown NJ ... 07 started in Cleveland, Ohio and ended in Little Rock, AR. Variety is the spice of life...have you noticed that very little satays the same...I plan on rockin out no matter where is is as long as it on the east side of the rocky mountains...:

It might take a little while to get the actual venue's hashed out, I see only a couple of the stops have actual venues as of now. I'm curious too, we'll have to wait and see!

Surprised that they are doing Springfield IL in downtown, think the fairgrounds are better - they do have the Route 66 Festival downtown though(run by Family Events also)
Live 10 miles outside of Springfield, last time they came through here we offered free camping for a number of those on the tour and will probably do so again - probably have a party Sunday night, not sure if we will do the tour though since we have already made vacation plans for late June/early July next year
Will update as we get closer

The miles will probable not be as you posted. There will be mostly 2 lane highway miles seeing the good ol USA instead of the interstate dull miles. But it will be fairly close to 1300 + whatever for the whole tour. I am looking forward to cruising through the part of the country where I grew up surounded by hot rods....
We will be picking it up in Springfield and going thru Chattanooga. Will be driving my dads 71 BB chevelle.
We went 3 days in 08 and 2 days in 07.
Also starting on thrus in nashville Chuck Hanson will be putting on his Chevelleabration show. It is by far the finest collection of Chevelles in the country.

Went in 2009 (Long Haul from Texas), pretty good tour and good weather. Loved the last stop @ Bristol but was Pissed at MSD for giving all the tour magnets out before I got there! Thats the only one I didnt get!!!!!!!!!!!!
