I'm going to try to talk my wife into going too, but when I mention anything that has to do with cars she starts looking at me cross-eyed.

Believe it or not, many of the guys also attend the HRPT by themselves, because the wives hate that type of stuff, but this trip is actually looked forward to by the wives. This is the ONLY car event that a lot of the women will attend all year. We've even had some women take their own cars.
This isn't just a big corporate backed road trip cruising up a highway somewhere, or a drag race from stop to stop by a bunch of young kids, who own their first fast car and feel they have something to prove.
This is a very laidback event driving down different scenic byways, with plenty of cool stops planned along the way and no rush to get to them. The average age is probably around 40 and most of the people have multiple toys to chose from.
The biggest compliment I hear from the new people each year, is how the entire group is so welcoming to everyone.
The only important advice I can really give, is that if you're serious about attending, don't wait to long to book your rooms. To many people lose out every year because they wait until the last minute and the rooms are all gone
Tell your wife that if she doesn't like it, she can have a money back guarantee (just don't tell her that it was free to start with).
