  • Possibly one of the most challenging feats for man and machine is completing the annual Hot Rod Power Tour. Venturing thousands of miles over America's highways and side streets, thousands of hot rods, muscle cars and modern machines attempt the week-long adventure.
    Mopar Connection Magazine's Editor-in-Chief, Kevin Shaw jumped head first into this year's Power Tour in our 10-second 1969 Dodge Charger R/T "Brazen" accompanied by several friends and coworkers, as well as his 82-year-old father, who rode shotgun helping film, give directions and critique the occasional missed shift.

    Great coverage. Although more of a GM guy. I do love some MOPARS. Great mix of cars your friends have. And the best part. Having your dad along. Proving you are never to old. Thanks.

    Wow. That silver blue 71ish charger. Nice. Looks similar to one that was at MCACN.

    An old friend and I went the last 2 years, but we decided to skip this year. We shouldn't have done that. I enjoyed the video and Jim's Belvedere is looking good.

    Love that color, same color of the '70 Challenger that color. Now I own a sublime 'Cuda with 5k original miles. Cool Charger we also had a 70 Charger back then and the Cuda I have now.

    Awesome Charger. More awesome that your dad was with you. I need to get my dad out in mine soon. My 340 ate a lifter so I’m swapping a mild magnum 360 in while I rebuild the 340.

    How has the Fast EZ worked overall?

      @moparconnection  Před 12 dny

      Unfortunately, it’s pretty limited. It’s worked great thus far but the further I push this car the more tunability I need.
