I've got some pictures and heard the stories about TDROC's last run up
to Missouri!! I would have to say some of the diehards of TDROC are as
crazy as Tom Phelan! They drive their cars everywhere! I couldn't
imagine a better vacation... a roadster, good friends with their
roadsters, meeting more friends with roadsters, and getting to see a lot
of the good ole USA in the process!
Long drive got you down? Try a pillow under that "gas" leg... it
works! Stiff and sore after a few hundred miles? Try not "Ironman"ing
it 600 straight! Get out and see the world every now and again!!! It's
called stretching... Wife and kids strapping you down? Grandparents
LOVE kids, kids love grandparents! Drop the kids off and take the wife
out for a ride!! Don't want to "waste" vacation time? What else
are you gonna use it on? Staying at home pruning the garden?? Come
on, ENJOY THE RIDE!!!! Its a short life... make the most of it..
