MY AZ people. FFW

[blackink00]

whos all going to FFW on oct. 29-30 at Firebird. ill be there and racing in true street class. who else?

 

[Dark Knight]

I'll be there, not sure if I'll run though..

since they let the older cars in for this race, if I have the 68 done next year, I'm going to enter pro 5.0

 

[gt96stanggt]

OHH shh.... shoot. i forgot oct. is already coming up!!! are they gonna have the cruise? i wanna go to that! hopefully i can get gears in by then so i can run it out there!

 

[Dark Knight]

central cruise is in a couple weeks... 2 weeks from today

 

[Zonie]

Hey Dark Knight!

You hitting Central?

If so what time is a good time to grab a spot at Park Central?

I always seem to get there too late.............

 

[Dark Knight]

A bunch of people from 1320stangs are heading up around noon.. I'll probably head up with a group from the east side.. another meet up on the west side too..

FWIW, FFW may be cancelled.. the one in cali already was..FFW is based in baton rouge and they dont know if they'll be able to get their equipment out because of the hurricane damage.

 

[Zonie]

CENTRAL..........If I could describe it in one word I would use the word "LAME"!

That is "not" cruisin' if barricades go up and the police kept the cars off the side parking spots up north. Looked to me no different than Scottsdale Pavilions if everyone was just going there to park.

 

[Dark Knight]

yeah, pretty much sucks.. more cars than the pavillions though

here are some of the pics I took

I took a look at your pics, Dark Knight.........Spaces! I saw parking spaces!

Oh man! When will I ever learn to get the heck out there a little earlier!!!

LOL!

Thanks for sharing the pics, Dark Knight.

*Does anyone know if that was the "official-official" last Cruise on Central?*

 

[Dark Knight]

It was pretty damn hot up there, got a little burned..
Where was your car?

Not sure about the last one, depends on when they start to tear up central for the light rail system..

Where was my car?

Yeah! About that........I'm an old cruiser way back into the mid 70's. I use to cruise Central & Main in Mesa. When I went cruising, I went at night. Not in the middle of the day. It makes no sense to me to go down at noon. The problem with that thought is I get down there in time for the police to through up the barricades and to find no spaces to park. So, I ended up with my car at Uptown Plaza for about an hour - just enough time to talk with a few club members that drove through and I went home since cruising Central was killed. As I said - Lame. Oh well!

Take care of that burn, Dark Knight!

 

[Dark Knight]

So did I, the old arbys or mcdonalds on central. Or in front of the bank by that grass area on main.
My 68 is the one I used to cruise then too.. Some pics of it back then.. then I had it back halved and could never get a race...

 

[Dark Knight]

oh yeah, FFW is still on for phoenix

Oh!!!! You were the one on the grassy noll! j/k

I keep thinking I've seen your car before. But, if I did that would be a long, long, loooong time ago. It has a stance with that hi-rise that would be hard to forget. *Very much like the time a 68 Fairlane pulled up beside me and when the light turned green........well, my car never faired well against something with a "jet engine" in it.*

Speaking of my "old cruiser", I'll see if I have a half-way, non-faded Poloroid pic laying around and get it on here. It was a fun car......wish I had it back!

 

[Dark Knight]

After those pics, it looked like this... used to hit metro center too

 

[Zonie]

That Metro Center one was practically in my back yard. Funny thing was I didn't really care to go around in circles. I was there a few times at the What-a-Burger. Nothing more.........

 

[Ford_Motorheads]

I will probably go to the FFW, if I get the Blue coupe running by then.

 

[old_blue]

I am going. Probably won't have my mustang though. still in cali

 

[Bluepony00]

I'll probably be there either Sat or Sun, I'm not racing though.

 

[Mach1Trav]

Im rounding up the Mach boys from mach1reg... We will be there with the shakers doin thier thing!
