Wow that was amazing. I showed up to BCC 45 min late and there was still a crap load of cars there. The 05 GT seemed smaller than in the pictures...anyway I was grouped with a bunch of old school stangers and 99+ GT verts. I stuck out like a sore thumb Another fox vert eventually caught up with us but she stayed in the back. Did any of you guys see that group of kids in front of the school? It looked like the teachers let them out just to watch us drive by. I thought it was pretty cool, they were all jumping around and waving Things were pretty cool until we got to Sedro Wooly. Everyone stopped at an AM/PM and it looked like they were trying to stage another cruise from there but everyone kinda got split up in the confusion when they moved over to the school. I drove by following a Fox vert while everyone else dove into the school parking lot. Some chick in a 99+ sliver Steeda gt looked confused and started following me. Then about 5 miles down the road another fox vert was stopped waiting for more cars to catch up and dove in behind us. At this point I was just heading back to Bellingham the back way but I think all the people behind me thought we were still on the cruise They followed me all the way to Lake Whatcom before I peeled off. They were like 'What the hell do we do now' and just slowly drove around the corner. Poor bastards At any rate too bad I didnt see anyone but I had a great time none the less. Hope to see you guys soon!

I pulled up to BCC at about 9:10 and there were a ton of cars. I pulled into the parking lot and then backed right back out and went off to work....it sucked, I wanted to stay and play. But, I got to see my dream car go down the freeway....I was headed east bound on I-90 on my way to the BCC exit and I got to see a 2000 Cobra R

I think a lot of cars got lost. They had 550 "info packets" at BCC and gave them all away, plus more cars were still showing up. By 3:00 when they took the panarama photos at the casino, only 389 (I think that's right) cars had made it there.

I think they only count how many make it to the photo shoot, so even though there were more cars than last year at the start, the official count is smaller.

Yea I heard there were a few break downs and some attrition. Did think it was that bad. But hey who knows.

Hey, that's my yellow Saleen in the second video. Thanks!

Too bad you could tell my car was getting wasted by all the better drivers and faster cars.
