Re: 2011 Hot Rod Power Tour

Not necessarily. HR usually picks 2 lane roads and as little interstate as possible. There are several reasons for this. 1) For people like me, that still run ancient 3-speed autos and low gears. 2) It's more scenic. You get to see America the way it's meant to be seen from the windshield of a vehicle. 3) It's just more fun. Interstate driving is boring. This ties back in with #2. There's not as much scenery, and back roads have sweeping, winding curves that are much more fun than long, straight sections of interstate.
