That means a lot coming from you, dude. Considering you've only been to one meet. Eric's right. We should do another one. This Thursday is supposed to be sunny out.

I think nick had said the thursday cruises shouldn't have stopped.but whatever.

Blackie · 10-20-2006, 10:02 PM

nick took my phone and said that.

I wanna go on a CV cruise

I'd say that in order for us to stop being so like finger pointing and such is by having a big meet, no car show or anything like that, like people who are related to each other by a cv.com site and then get to know the other person. If you happent to not like the other person, just know them and get the weight off your back by saying, "sup, later"

Anyway, sushi sushi sushi. sake sake sake

Sounds like you're suggesting having one big gripe-fest which IMO, won't work.

Plus setting up a car for autocross is totally different than for track in most cases due to the car for autocross being setup to transition so fast while for track it really depends where you are driving.

are you competitive enough to the point where some slight rule advantages are going to matter?? i sure as hell am not. and the club ones - bmw/vw/audi/mazda are just fine. should be doing it for fun!

see, when we posted about the cruises stopping, nobody spoke up against it or said they would like to keep cruising. there were some weeks were nobody wanted to go, and a few people i won't name were complaining about speeding on the cruises... then this comes up..

I think I am the only one that attended all the cruise meets!

I should have time for this coming thursday to have a cruise meet.

'Cause some of us don't go on the cruises to potentially see someone die...

On cruises, you "cruise." It's not a race. I don't think cruising at the regular 70-85 mph was much to complain about... it was those that were weaving in and out of traffic and making a couple close calls that freaked some of us out. It was only a request with nothing but good intentions behind it. Basically, just everyone looking out for one another.

I'm down for another cruise (weather permitting), too.

sickmint79 · 10-21-2006, 03:07 AM

weaving in and out of traffic isn't racing, it's reckless kids

CrazuDC5 · 10-21-2006, 11:39 AM

never said it was racing, and technically a cruise is on a surface street really only going about i don't know 15 miles an hours. So we are all mistaken. And because im sick and pissy, non of us technically race shit. Autocross is just driving like an idiot in a parking lot, Circuit club days are just going out and wasting money and driving like an idiot. Going to a drag strip is driving like an idiot. Hell humans were meant to walk. Screw this everyone is just bashing on each other. Nothing is ever going to get done.

Well, not everyone likes to drive like that. I used to drive like that, but I'm too calm now. It's not fun for me when you guys do 100 the whole way there swerving in and out of traffic. That's just stupid. That's not cruising at all... it's being dangerous and ricey.

I think there needs to be more creativity when planning meets. There has to be more out there then chicken strips and sushi.

If there was, would you really want to know about it?

Yeah, and I would go if I could make it out to the suburbs.

How about this for an idea, we delete this thread and move on because this thread is just going to end CV.

CrazuEM1 · 10-21-2006, 12:50 PM

wow, this thread is pretty intense huh... still questioning whether or not i truly want to voice my opinion yet, because i feel/fear eric may be right in the this thread will end cv, well at least the current cv, because there is a lot of "bashing" for lack of a better word. And so far, im willing to take the blows that have come my way and take them without giving a response, but we'll see what happens.

just for clarification purposes, this was a joke. I took youngs phone from him and posted it, when we were chillin over at erics last night... it was just me 'joshin' with eric at youngs expense.
