Not in my lifetime!
I've met the owner of the center trhu some car pals, so should be able to find something out. Doubtful that my Shinoda will be ready as finding a proper clutch master cylinder has taken so long, but Jim's come through, as expected.
The 'tour' is not an event; is not registered and while the press and some local gendarmes (can you say rvine?) have discovered it, officially doesn't happen!
It's just a happenstance gathering of car folks who temper their NY Eve celebrations.

I forgot the tongue in cheek! Actually, there is quite likely a legal basis for it "not happening".
Driven it in the Vette, the V8 '55 Nash Rambler and a Smart Cabrio.

All silver, 2008, with custom black leather seats and stock orange interior. It's way more fun than one might think, even IF you have to imagine UR going fast! Driving it hard lowers the mpg to 27, I found.
No news from CnC this morning re: Tour 2017.

The moving traffic generator!
.. and way less fun to drive for a few mpg increase. I saw about 42 enroute to/from PHX the day after purchase and with 75k on it, has never been in for repair; just routine mx: tires, fluids and brakes. Daimler (France) did well!
