10 days to Kicks in Tulsa
We are about a bunch of Chevrolet HHR owners from ChevyHHRFamily.net planning a get together in the summer of 2008. Anyone who owns and HHR, is considering a purchase or just wants to see a bunch of cool HHR's all in one place is welcome to attend.
The Chevrolet HHR is a retro vehicle that was introduced for the 2006 model year. The letters HHR stand for Heritage High Roof and in an effort to come full circle with a get together, we are putting together an HHR get together on the Historic Route 66 highway. The run will be based out of Tulsa, Oklahoma on July 18-21, 2008.
Check out the handiwork of on of our forum members...Ike's Blackjack. He just learned Paint Shop Pro and is doing an awesome job with his animation. Way to go Ike!!!
This page will be dedicated to gathering friends and providing info on this historic run in the works.
Here was the Itinerary for the Kicks on Route 66 Meet
Dash plaques with a special picture will go to all who register. We will try to have plenty on hand.
Dash Plaques- with the picture you saw on the post will go to 1st 50 who pre- register.
CD in hand and go to st 50 who pre-register
CD has car songs and the Official Kicks on Route 66 picture burned on the top of the CD to make it a true collectors item to not only be looked at but listened to for a life long memory.
Door Prizes
We will pass out door prizes at the awards ceremony on Sunday at 6 pm.
We will have separate drawings using registration names that will go in a box.
Door prizes will be told as we acquire them and will be listed under here so check back.
T-Shirts
We will work on a t-shirt and these will be a 4 sale only and if you order them ahead of time, we will have them for you when you get there. We will get the best deal we possibly can. The people that will be doing our awards and dash plaques also do T-shirts.
Vendors
So far a window etcher, pinstripe/mural painter, Rt66 Vendor, Oklahoma Rt 66 Assoc. will be there
Poker or a Bean Run both days.
We will do a Poker run one day or a Bean run both days with a $5 donation. The whole pot would be split 2 to 3 ways depending on how many participants we have. Award Plaques will be for best 2 to 3 hands, as well as for the winners each day depending on the number of participants.
Poker run
Consists of stopping at designated points on your map and drawing a card at 7 different points. When you get back you turn in your cards and the best 5 card hand wins. Top 2 to 3 winners will be announced at the Car show on Sunday. Plaques and cash money will be awarded at that time. You will be able to enter and pay for the Poker/Bean runs ahead of time if you like.
Bean Run
Consists of stopping at 7 designated points. You reach in and get a bean from each check point and pick any bean of the 13 to 15 available. Points for each bean and only the point counter will know the value of the beans. When you return after the run you turn in your beans and your points will be tallied. Winners will be announced at the Car show on Sunday and plaques and the money from the pot to the 2 or 3 winners will be awarded.
Friday
Leave Tulsa around 9 to 10 and go NW to Quapaw on Old Route 66 starting from downtown, around 100 miles with 14 cities and the Will Rogers Museum along the way. Everyone will be furnished a map for both days with points of interest to see. That would leave us lots of time to stop along the way and spend the day looking, learning and having fun. Start with breakfast and then dinner in Quapaw.
We will then get on I-44 and head back or go back on Route 66 with no stops to Tulsa and the hotel.
Back at hotel, we will have a room large enough to let everyone show up and chat and visit.
Saturday
Next day we go to the SW to Arcadia, leaving downtown Tulsa again with another 100 mile day with 15 towns to stop and check out and spend the whole day looking. Dinner will be in Tulsa or in Arcadia, depending on what we decide as a group.
On both drives back it would be a 1.5 hour drive back to Tulsa. It will make for another great day and we'll end up back at the hotel for a short get together and visit.
Sunday
Morning
Short service- by our Chaplain Frank Holmes aka HolmesHotRide. This is only if you want to attend. There are some other possibilities with Frank in some morning devotionals and daily blessings before the runs.
9:00-12:00 - How-To's- from suggestions from other HHR owners and tips from the HHR forum.
Bring mods you have bought and let us know ahead of time what you would like to do. We can have a class demonstration as we teach you how to do it.
One thing that we could do, and we will bring some tools is have a How-To day on Saturday morning for anyone wanting to bring mods with them and have other HHR owners help you install them.
Lunch 12:00 to 2:00
Car Show 2:00 – 6:00
with participant judging from 4:00 to 5:00 with fellowship throughout.
All registered participants will be entered. Participation is not mandatory, but with the 4 classes why not join in and have some fun. At 4:00pm, sheets will be handed out to all entered for participant judging and you will only be allowed to vote in the other 3 classifications you are not entered in. A participant will not be allowed to vote on his own class. This will make the judging as fair as we can possibly make it.
1st, 2nd and 3rd place in all 4 classes.
Classes are:
1. Stock, no modification
2. Mild modification
3. Medium modification
4. Extreme to custom modified
American Graffiti Dress Up Contest
This a great idea from Deb to have a contest during the Car Show to dress up from the Route 66 era. Things like poodle skirts, cat eye glasses, rolled up jeans and white t-shirts...that sort of thing, like they were dressed in American Graffiti. Participants in the car show will vote for these while they vote on the car classes. Must be registered for the meet to participate.
1 Award- Best dressed person or couple of an HHR that is registered.
Awards at 6:00pm for:
12 award plaques- for car show
1 Award for best dressed in the American Graffiti Dress Up Contest

1 award plaque- Longest Distance Traveled by HHR
2 award plaques- 2 bonus runs from digital pics, free
items or handouts collected from the most points from Chicago, IL to Baxter Springs, KS and from Los Angeles to Edmond, OK. If you use a 35 MM camera there are tons of places in Tulsa to have your film developed in time for the contest once you get to Tulsa. Last Chance to submit items on the bonus run will be Saturday night at 10 pm.
Dinner- at a place if anyone wants to attend together. Back to hotel to relax and more fellowship.
