I just bought my GTO last month (and joined GTOAA!), and, never having been to a GTOAA event, I would like to ask a few questions.

1. If you can only be there for one day, what is the best day? I'm about 4 hours away in Va, so what time should I arrive?

2. My GTO has had a color change from Verdoro green. gold interior, black vinyl top to triple black. Also, it originally had all drum brakes but has now been upgraded to front discs. Otherwise, it is numbers matching front to back. Am I eligible for any show class?

3. If I go, it will be by far, the furthest I will have driven my GTO. It is a 4-speed with 3.55 gears, and at 70mph it is running somewhere between 3800 and 4000 rpm. Do any of you have a similar setup, is it ok to run on the interstate for long periods of time with that much rpm, or should I stay off the interstate and come an alternate route?

Thank you for your answers and please excuse my ignorance.
