Made it home today around noon from the Hot Rod Power Tour. It was my first time and we did the Long Haul, about 3,000 miles round trip. The Blazer did fairly well, I burnt up the factory posi clutches and lost a fuel pump, not too bad in my opinion. The factory 3.07 gears paired with the overdrive on the 700-R4 made it get amazingly good gas mileage, but it struggled to maintain speed while climbing hills unless I floored it to get it to downshift. I met a few board members along the way, ran into Courtney Hansen at a restaurant, and have countless stories to tell my buddies that didn't go. My 2 running buddies and I got our pictures posted on
TheBlock.com which we thought was pretty cool, plus they were incredible shots. Had countless offers to buy the Blazer, some would have been a pretty good profit, but I just couldn't do it. Here are some of my favorite shots of the Blazer by random people who posted to facebook or instagram, and of course, My Girlfriend and I.
All in all, I would say we had a B!tchin' time!
