The Lane Museum is a collection of about 330 eclectic and unusual cars in Nashville, Tn.
This is the second annual rally to benefit the Museum, it's also a chance to drive something you'll never see on the roads - let alone drive - on a gimmick rally thru the beautiful Tennessee countryside. The rally stops at the Jack Daniels distillery in Lynchburg for a tour and hosted lunch, then it's back on the country roads again to the Museum. There's also a dinner afterwards if you choose to go.
The list of cars available to be driven changes each year, but they choose about 40 cars and you take your choice from the list by reserving on with a deposit. Each car requires a donation, which depends on whether you're 4 in a car or 2, only 2 drivers per car are allowed.
This year, I'll be driving this...
Don't know what it is? Ha!
Here's a link to the Museum and the rally itself, Nashville is only a 9hr drive, so it's easily do-able in one day to get there.
Check it out! Lots of interesting cars still available, including a one-off Simca roadster that was given to Bridgett Bardot!

Re: Rally for the Lane
Friday a friend and I left together from KC and caravaned down to Nashville for this event - here is John and his supercharged Roush 427.....the fellow standing on the other side of the car is Bruce, who will be piloting the Tatra with me. The Roush is really fast, and sounds awesome!

Re: Rally for the Lane
Here the cars we'll be driving are lined up at the Lane museum, ready for us to hit the road. Bruce and I in the red Tatra 603 and our other three guys in the orange Citroen DS21 rally car parked next to the mighty Tatra..... I'll have a lot more pics and even some video of us tooling along the country lanes tomorrow!

Re: Rally for the Lane
These cars are so cool/eccentric. What a fun way to experience them.
