Sticking with the bodies-of-water theme that took the Great Race around the Great Lakes this year, the organizers of the Great Race have decided to trace the great Mississippi River for the 2013 edition.
Starting from the Minnesota Street Rod Association’s Back to the ’50s car show in St. Paul, Minnesota, the Great Race will then head south along the Mighty Mississip’, crossing the river several times to visit states on both sides, winding up eight days later in Mobile, Alabama. According to Jeff Stumb, director of the Great Race, the route will stop for lunch on the banks of the river or its tributaries about five times and provide for overnights in river cities another six times.
The 2013 Great Race, which is open to vehicles from 1969 and earlier, will take place June 22-30. At stake will be $150,000 in prize money, and anybody who submits their entry before September 30 (this Sunday) will get a discount on their entry fee. For more information, visit GreatRace.com.
