    I completely agree

    There was definately a good turn out, it was nice to meet some of you guys up there. I will have more fuel next time lol but the show was nice and I had a good time, yeah there could be some improvements but overall it was fun

    I do think they need to control some of the guys driving like

    Mesa Cruise 08

    Yes, Linda needs to be thanked for her hard work I totally agree on that, i'm sure it's hard to try to organize the event. The cruise was fun and I enjoy going, I am just trying to make suggestions to make this a better event.
    Like I said it's a new event and like anything new it's going to need many suggestions and tweeks to get it right. Any further suggestions by anyone would be greatly appreciated especially if your cruising.
    It's our responsibility as classic car and Hot Rod owners to make suggestions at hand if we all want to show our cars to the public and have fun in Mesa again or elsewhere!

    I thought the turn out was much better then the last time. You have to remember the cruise was almost twice as long as the last time. On the last cruise no one cruised past Hibbert.

    The parking lot on the other side of Berge just west was packed and the city must of paid for the lights and rent a pottys too. The parking lot by Jack was full and the two lots behind Posh Nosh just east were packed also.

    The crowd was also bigger especially by Jack's.

    I was surprised how many lit their tires up.......

    Lemme get this straight...you are complaining it was to long? (turn around) lol I'm sorry I would give my right nut to be able to cruise like the old days...it can't be too long, and if unless I don't remember right, wasn't Mesa Dr the original turn around point?

    As for to many civilians...sure it would be a home run to just have hot rods, but in real cruising...there are other people. Part of the fun...pull up next to grandma and say hi. lol I'd suggest forget this type of battle and fight the wars.

    The only thing I would talk to mesa about (and not bitch) is to find out how big the cruise can be and more often...I can't remember, wasn't mesa in the 80's like a two mile cruise?

    JACO my suggestion was to see if Mesa would be open to a mustang (other cars) MCA Saturday night. Tell them there will be A LOT of out town dollars coming to town. Drags on Friday...cool. Cruising on saturday with a bunch of towners...very cool.

    It seems like the goal is to get this to be as big or bigger than the late, lamented "Cruise on Central" in Phoenix, yes? If so, that WOULD indeed be VERY cool. But, that does require the block off to make it worthy and successful.

    I just wanted to say hi to you guys and gal I talked to down by Berge. You have some sweet cars. I had a blast and I'm ready to do it again. Too bad Berge isn't a block or two further west, Ken.
