PT will stop in IL on June 7th at DuQoin. Then the rest of your route is ok, just one day later.
My over sight sorry about that but it is now corrected...I grew not to far from there.

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!
Having the end and award ceremony at the USS Alabama site would be awesome. They have a HUGE grassed area where car shows are held and they have a covered indoor venue area.

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....
