Dear Fellow AACA member, past Tour participant, and/ or car enthusiast-
Greetings from the Texas Region! We hope that you are all doing well during these unusual times. As you may recall, the Gulf Coast Region AACA faced unprecedented challenges last May for the Tour in Brenham and again this spring. With that, they reached out to the other clubs to assist. In an effort to keep the Tour going, the Texas Region is stepping in to continue this proud tradition, even if slightly abbreviated. The sponsoring clubs all met to discuss this possibility exactly two weeks ago. The clubs themselves are still in active rotation for this Tour and the spots going forward have not changed.
While we had 2 years to plan the 2018 Tour in Nacogdoches, we have a little quicker time frame for this Tour and some things are still closed up here in North Texas. We hope that participants understand that and still have fun on the Tour. We’ve driven 455 miles total the last two weekends running potential routes with more ideas to flesh out in the coming weeks.
With that being said the 67th Annual Texas Tour. will be taking place May 13-16, 2021, in Paris, Texas for the first time since 2006 when HHCA sponsored the Tour.
In an effort to streamline the Tour, the normal car judging events will not be taking place this year.. However, all standard rotating trophies will still be awarded. Our emphasis will be on driving the cars, seeing old friends, and making new ones!
Due to the shorter time frame, registration is preferred to be done online by clicking HERE and sending your payment via PayPal. If not, please send us an email and let us know you are mailing it in. Everything is due May 1, 2021.
