May 11, 201212 yr comment_389777 Hi Ray:Amazing - - there is next to ZERO publicity about this event here in the U.S.. Either you are circulating in these circles or you are unaware it is happening. Perhaps the Event Organizers and participants want it that way.I've checked the Sports Channels, National News etc. and found NO Reporting from any of the cities visited etc.I hope someone - documents complete coverage in a video format - then sells the video's. Looks like it would be a really great way to spend May. Plus a really great event to participate in with a 240Z.Maybe Next Year...Carl B.

May 12, 201212 yr comment_389879 I owned an Escort Mk 1 for a while. It was cool to drive until it was stolen. OTOH, how would the Trans-America Challenge compare to the Power Tour?

May 13, 201212 yr comment_389903 I'm not so sure the usual street car could make the trip up there. It might not be all nicely paved roads. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/43187-trans-america-challenge-2012/#findComment-389903 Share on other sites More sharing options...
