Like those that already took part in the Gold Medal Tour in Mississauga, Winnipeg participants will have the opportunity to enjoy a fifth driving course. The extra course is a "Street Drive," that will have you complying with street signs and directions from a professional driver's walkie-talkie while testing out Chrysler's PT Cruiser and Chrysler Crossfire on public streets.

Just imagine, the opportunity to put nearly an entire company's product line to the test, without a sales person in sight. Not only that, but professional drivers will show you what 500-hp can really accomplish. (Photo: Trevor Hofmann, Canadian Auto Press)

Also, DaimlerChrysler will have its new Dodge Caravan/Chrysler Town & Country minivans on display, with the opportunity to play with its innovative Stow 'n Go rear seating system.

If you've never been to this type of manufacturer sponsored program, you'll no doubt enjoy yourself. There are normally no sales people on site, allowing visitors the opportunity to relax and poke around the vehicles first hand, have professional product people explain their various functions, and all without any pressure to purchase.

If this sounds like the type of event that you'd like to take part in, contact your local Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep dealer and see if there is any room on the signup list in your area.
