The AMSOIL Street Rodder Road Tour Hits the Open Road

The 2014 AMSOIL Street Rodder Road Tour is off to an excellent start. 60 participants joined Tour leader Jerry Dixey as they embarked on the first tour of the season, the Vintage Air Tour. This year’s event added a unique opportunity to participate in the Triple Crown Challenge, a back-to-back 3-tour experience that will keep those up to the task on the road for most of June. Those who complete the Triple Crown Challenge will earn a commemorative jacket and great memories of the ultimate road trip.

When the tour kicked off in San Antonio June 7, participants got acquainted with their fellow Road Tourians and the plans for the week ahead at an evening cookout hosted by Vintage Air Headquarters. After the welcome event, members headed to the Alamo in downtown San Antonio for a tour and overview of this important piece of American history. The AMSOIL Street Rodder Road Tour is currently heading West as they make their way to Pomona, Calif. for the Father’s Day Los Angeles Roadster Show. Stops along the way will include legendary hot rod shops, a tour of the Unser Racing Museum and miles of beautiful scenery throughout the American Southwest.
