    Smile Hot Rod Power Tour

    Yesterday the Hot Rod Power Tour came to New Orleans. Over 1,200 Hot Rods and Muscle cars.
    Admission is free and for a small registration fee you can get a dyno run.
    Idlebrock had a really neat display and so did several other vendors.
    The car owners were very friendly and enjoyed conversation with the spectators about their cars.
    There was a MM with Ohio plates, tried to find the owner but was unsucessful. Breifly spoke with an owner of a very original looking 60's era Marauder. It had the same fender badges as the ones on SgtMac's sig.

    If it's coming to your area it's worth a trip. Do a search under Hot Rod.

    Last year Mercury officially participated with Marauders.

    They should have done it again

Looks like there's been a serious splintering. I never thought it'd be possible for this to happen to a group of owners of a car model that sold no more than 14000 copies over 2 model years. Kind of scary, when thinking of the scale. Makes one think that maybe it'd be a good idea to do some introspection and think about what each of us needs to do to build a solid community, analyze what it is we're all honestly looking for by belonging to this community.
