MSD 2005 Power Tour
It's a wrap! The 11th annual Hot Rod Magazine Power Tour brought thousands of enthusiasts together again. This time, the long haul took us from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to Kissimmee, Florida. Follow along the tour with MSD!

Kick Off in Milwaukee
After an exhausting flight to Milwaukee I hooked up with the newbie crew, Victor and Adam, whom already had three days of travel under their belts, and we headed to Miller Park to set up for the kick-off cruise day. Everything in Milwaukee is Miller this or Miller that and the smell of hops and barley were heavy in the humid air all morning! The parking lot was lined up with eager tour-folk to get registered and take a prime spot at the show.


Once the '55, truck and trailer were cleaned up (shameless plug: thanks to Mothers!) everyone started coming over to check out what goodies we brought along. Our new LT1 Cap and Rotor kit were the most popular! Veteran long haulers knew to come over and pick up the Day 1 magnet.

 


Just behind us was the newest product of Imagine Motorworks - the Poison Dart. Who knew a Dart could look so cool.


The Barry Grant company is based in the middle of Georgia, but Barry had the beach-wagon vibe going with this Ford wagon - surf boards and all. Note the new dual carb setup on the FE engine - as well as the ignition.


You can't be in Wisconsin without coming across AMC products and these were two fine representatives.

 


Our Pro Mag 44's are used exclusively in Top Fuel and Funny Car classes. If you've ever been bitten by a 6A, imagine what 44 amps, times two, would feel like!

 


As usual, there were hundreds of cool cruisers from all over the country

 


Nasty reports of foul weather and a quick down pour scared off a lot of locals, but the skies cleared and the evening turned into the nicest one of the week. By dusk (which is seems like 11:00) we were heading to the hotel and ready for the road!


From left to right, Victor, NMRA racer Robin Lawrence, Adam and our rep Terry Perkins. Adam and Victor handled getting our display to the tour and every stop along the way, Terry knows every speed shop in Minnesota and Wisconsin and Robin just kept showing up!
