This is a great show to get us out of the heat. They only have room for 425 entries and as of today they have 250 already. Send in your registration now and don't forget to book your room too. There are usually 3 groups that caravan up: 1 group on Friday morning, then Friday afternoon/evening then another Saturday morning. Many of us meet for a pot luck dinner at 6pm Saturday at the Ramada West Hotel.

'bout 2 months out and ready to go. Go'n to Flag next week for 3 days of mid-summer cool down and a little recon for the run to the event. I am goin to check a different route up and back and will post up what they are like, any suggestions? Lookin for some old bits of the original Rt 66. Some of the ones I found between Williams and Flag are not recommended for Mustangs, and one is purly 4X. If you have not signed-up yet, suggest contacting the club befor you go. As many can attest this is the best way to end the summer. For those new to the area, you gotta do this. Heres a little teaser pic from last year.....looks kinda cool.

Something better than Phx-Prescott-Flagstaff? Has to have a good place for lunch. I'm sure we can arrange lunch with the town council memebrs again in Prescott. Let us know what you find. This time I'm going to continue through Williams and not take I-17.

For the morning cruise up to Flagstaff on Friday 7/7/12, what about having lunch at Sonic in Prescott? Great way to show off our cars and be by them or do you want a sit down restaurant? I'm trying to get a heaedcount so we know how much room we need. Please respond.

I'm ok with the Sonic (where is it). I still plan to do Wickeburg to Prescott like last year. Went to Flag a couple of weeks ago and the roads are good with just a little shoulder work in the twisties. Thinkin road trip!!!!!!!!!

HanksGT
07-27-12, 01:08 PM
Sonic is North of the town square, off 89 on Whipple Street. Seems easier than a sit down restaurant, but we're open to suggestions. Or we can do the parking garage and Firehouse Restaurant again.

Oh yes, we're still doing the meet in North and West Phoenix then Wickenburg, and up Yarnell Hill. It wouldn't be the same without that.

07-30-12, 12:00 PM
Friday am for me too. Jones Ford now has the old Chevy dealer location (hurah) as you come into Wickenburg on US60. I can check with them to see if they would host a meeting point/break stop before the run up Yarnell to Prescott. Lemme know if interested. This year we need to do a better job with the caravans so we meet on time and stay together to avoid the problems we had last year. I will again shoot video (have HD this year) and any one else with a cam could shoot and we can build a real movie. I have last years video, shown it a Hanks, maybe all of us going could do a movie nite before the run to show it again. Thirty nine days and counting, I am so ready to go! :hellothere:

HanksGT
07-30-12, 02:11 PM
Sounds like the start of a good crowd. Hope everyone joins in for the lunch run.

Maybe we can get a few volunteers (east, west side and north maybe) to keep in touch by phone on progress. I don't think we did too badly with me hitting my garage and John's battery needing replacement before we we left Costco. Should we just meet at the Burger King in Wickenburg again, so we're facing the correct direction for departure?

I know a few of us will be taking it a little easier up the twisties after seeing those rescue photos last year. Andy fixed my front end clunk, so I'm ready for it.

Buddy stopped at Sonic in Prescott and got the managers number. We'll call him the day before with an approximate number of people and he'll bring in extra staff. If you don't want to eat in your car there are picnic tables out front.

I'm ok with a Thursday night movie if anyone wants. Maybe we could set up a couple of people heading out first to shoot the cars coming by, then a few different folks leave early from the next stop so everyone will have a chance to get in the movie.

Berge group should leave by 8:15am to arrive at Costco and leave with that group at 9am to arrive in Wickenburg by 10. West side leave at 9am? Leave Wickenburg at 10:15 to arrive in Prescott/Sonic around 12.

Next week is going to be stupid hot, in the teens. Goin to Flag on Wed. to cool my jets, again. Will be looking for good water holes for the RT-66 run, can't wait. Headed for Utah and Track Attack on the 20th.....ready for that too!

HanksGT
08-04-12, 06:56 PM
Oh man! Have fun...

Have you seen the old, preserved section of Route 66 just before the mall? I asked a local if we could drive on it to take pictures of the group. He said he thinks so. I didn't see any signs saying you couldn't drive on it. Great photo op.

I have not heard much if everyone is ok with Sonic for a lunch stop in Prescott. I got some t-shirts to give away during lunch.

Yes you can drive on it, we did. See attached pics from last year with Andy and John V. We stopped and picked up bits of concrete longside the road....free souviners of the original MOTHER ROAD. This would be a great thing to do after breakfast on Sunday morning. Yup, thats the 66 on Rt66, can it get any better than that?

66Pony
08-04-12, 07:34 PM
Damn Rick - that was a beautiful 66 Fastback. How could you dare part with that? Even with a Boss 302 replacement?

HanksGT
08-04-12, 09:22 PM
The area we found has Rt 66 signs at either end and a picnic ramada in the middle. The pavement is not covered, it is original concrete. There is a gravel access road from the current Rt 66/190/89 where it turns right onto 180 (right side of the photo). You can see it here:

08-04-12, 11:09 PM
Hank, what you are looking at is the walking trail (not drivable) using the original road bed. Just east of that is the turn off from Santa Fe Drive to 180/Old Route 66 (driveable) that takes you past the auto mall and on to US40. Its a rough asphault then patched concrete (original road surface) that is still open and driveable. I have found some other sections of the original 66 between Flag and Williams, unfortunatly the concrete is gone and are now dirt. I don't recommend these for the Mustangs but great if you have a pickup (all the orginal 66 bridges are in place on these roads). 66Pony, yea the car looked great last year but I had it for 21 years, the paint(18 yo) was starting to look its age and was going to need big bux. I have great memories and lots of pix so I don't really miss it, got top dollar, so a good decision. As for the BOSS, that was the only possible choice for replacement. I like the BOSS and all that goes with it, it is a keeper. May look for a 66 or 67 coupe to make a street/track car.

HanksGT
08-05-12, 12:04 AM
Welll, at least I have a good shot of my car on it. We didn't see any signs saying no driving. The local club suggested it would be ok to drive on for a photo.

I'm going to email directions to those who request them. When and where is the west side group leaving from to meet us in Wickenburg? East side can leave Berge at 8:15am to meet the N Phoenix crew at Costco (Cave Creek & 101) at 9am.

Rick Shopmier
08-09-12, 11:24 AM
It is stupid hot, 118 degrees yesterday on my patio in the shade, geez. I plan on meeting in Wickenburg at the Shell Station (on right side of US60) at about 10:00. Not to be confused that is the second Shell as you come into town and next to the Burger King. I was going to Flag for a couple of days but my plans got changed due to appointments, stuck here hiding from the heat. Some of you think I'm nuts wanting to move back to Colorado, think again.

JoeT
08-09-12, 12:07 PM
I'm leaving with the Costco crew.

HanksGT
08-09-12, 02:43 PM
I thought BK was a good choice to stop (plenty of restroom space and snacks if needed). No one is meeting on the west side at 9?

The absence of snow in the winter keeps me here.

Well if anyone on the west side wants to meet up we can always do like we normally do and meet up at the starbucks on bell and grand at 9am. If no one chimes in im not going go there and sit and wait for people if no one is coming. So if you want to meet on the west side please chime in.

And BK was a good choice, lots of parking, food, restrooms. Easy to get in and out of.

Hi All-I just got this message from John at the Route 66 car club:

"I just wanted to give you an update on the Friday night activities for Route 66 Days so you can pass it on to your group.

We will not be having a Poker Run on Friday night this year. Traffic is too crazy up here on Friday afternoons so we have to plan the Poker Run for the evening and it's getting hard to find places that are (1) Big enough to handle a large group of cars at one time and (2) have enough lights at night to see what we're doing.

So...we're going to be hosting a Cruise Night at Freddy's Steakburgers on Beulah Boulevard (near Walmart) from 6:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. We will be having music and awards for Freddy's Choice Top 5.

Also the show is sold out."

Looks like Freddy's for dinner Friday Sept 7 at 6pm.

John said they have the use of the credit union parking lot next door and they're working with Walmart to use some of their lot as overflow if needed. They have had cruise nights at Freddy's with over 100 cars, so we should be fine. They have it covered.

One word...Shopping Carts...ops thats 2....

HanksGT
08-11-12, 04:48 PM
We'll use the far corner of the Wally World lot. I don't think most of their customers would waddle that far away form the front door. Plus we'll be in the general vinictiy of our cars with alot of other car people. And we should be there early, since its across from our hotel.

That's what I'm saying. Plus this last weekend was labor day there so extremely crowded there and the weekend of the 14th is Halloween time at Disneyland which is extremely crowded as well. So I'm hoping this coming weekend will have the lower crowds, especially for Cars Land. I heard the wait time at their new Cars Land roller coaster is like 1-2 hours pretty much all day.

HanksGT
09-05-12, 12:52 AM
Get there before rope drop, run to Fastpass for Radiator Springs Racers then see some other sights and rides while you wait for your fastpass time to come up. Be sure to look at www.micechat.com for tips and info.

Disneyland with the entire family works out better than a car show with just 2 of us. Gotta keep the peace. That said see you in a couple of days at Costco for a 9am departure.

48 hours and counting. Checked with the Weather Channel last nite, slight chance of showers on Friday afternoon, a little more chance on Saturday afternoon and Sunday is more likely during the day. Sunday looks likely for showers state wide. Not trying to pupu the event just so no one panics and is just prepaired. I definitly don't think we will have hail or the Saturday nite storm we had last year that was a fluke. We will have fun and the cool air will be worth it. ROAD TRIP!!!!!!!

If you are a westsider and want to meet Dennis and me at the Paradise Bakery (on Bell Rd just west of Litchfield Rd, 2 blocks west of Grand Ave/US60) at 8:30 for coffee/drink and a bagel/muffin. We plan to depart at 9:15 for Wickyberg.

Great pics, Wade. I tried to upload mine, but the site keep giving a fail message. Need to find out what gives, are my files to large? Any suggestions. This weekend was awsome, no rain once we got to Flag, show came off perfect and them damn Camaros beat us out of the club participation trophy. Next year we all have to register under a single club, and we need to bring the individual club banners to show. Also on a happy note....no fn Busch's in the chase. Wuha!

We had about thirty Mustangs from Phoenix/Tucson meet Saturday morning and caravan to the show. The show has a max of 425 entries (and it was sold out weeks in advance). Premium was just under $4/gal. Weather was great on Saturday with a high of 75. The best represented club was Camaro Club. Next year we have to pool all our Mustangs under one club name to win that award. There were five top vehicles and here are four of them:

How about staying at Ramada Inn West-Tucson for $89/night. About a 1 mile from the show.
