The spring cruise is nearly here! As some of you have already read, the spring cruise is going to be longer this year, quite similar to the fall cruise. We'll be leaving Racine, WI, at 9:00am, cruising up toward Plymouth (Road America area), and back down to Cedarburg, just north of Milwaukee, at around 5:30pm. It should be a blast, and there will be lots of cool photo and video opportunities along the way. Big thanks to Ron S. for doing much of the scouting, and Tim Y. for setting up door prizes and such. See the Spring Cruise Website (http://springcruise.fallcruise.org) for more info. To keep the numbers manageable, it is f-body only. Here is the list, which I will keep updated:

1. DamonZ28 (1994 Camaro Z28)

Knyghtmare and pewterstang: do you want to ride along? or are you going to be working on your cars? There are usually open seats available.

Heather: is Jason coming in yours, or each of you in their own car? Driving is the best part, and you should be in radio contact, anyhow.

No we're taking seperate cars. Neither of us would want to just tag along in the other persons car. We got these radio walkie talkie things we're taking along, thats what most people bring right?. Neither of us have been on one of these cruises so im excited.

Great plan, you'll both enjoy it. Some people here don't have f-bods, do you want passengers? The FRS radios are what are used, the channel might be listed on the protocol page. Hey, Damon - what's the channel we'll use?

Aww, man. The sexy lust kitten cruisers are gettin excited, my day is shot now. You have seen the warning stickers for F-Bodies that bras should not be worn in V8 powered cars because they restrict breathing too much, right?

If someone wanted to tag along I'd be willing to let people ride with me.

Sure, but it's a WHOLE LOT more fun driving!!! You're just missing some bumper paint? Forget it, just come along and do that later. This isn't a show (although it might look like it when we park) - this is a DRIVING event!!! Nobody will care if you're missing some paint (as long as you don't lose any more paint along the Cruise). One guys has a smashed quarter panel (everybody promises to not take photos of dents/scratches.)

Hmmm... For the record the decal states this vehicle is equipped with a "5.7L LS1 V8 engine"... And its not just bras.. its tight-fitting or constrictive clothing should be removed for safety... :Hump

If anybody wants to take me I'd be willing to even ride in the back seat or anything as long as i could come. I'd also help chip in a lil for gas and crap ;)

P.S. is this considered a public event, or is it privately organized? and what really sucks, even though my car is SIMILAR to a firebird, it's a P-Body, not F :( :fire

DamonZ28
05-14-2004, 02:25 PM
Hey, Damon - what's the channel we'll use?

I'm not sure yet, depends on whether or not anyone has the 2-channel radios. If someone does, we'll use channel 12 (channel 2 on the 2-channels); if not, we'll use channel 4.

DamonZ28
05-14-2004, 02:27 PM
is this considered a public event

It's a public event, anyone with an f-body can attend. I keep it to f-bodies only, because we're probably going to have 40 or 50 cars already. Any more than that, and it gets really hard to keep everything organized.

You always gotta talk **** Mitch? You have NO ****** idea of what I run. Actually, since Ive started Moding it this winter I dont even know what I can run. But still, is there a damn reason you have to say you can own me? And then even if you lose you'd just make damn excuses.

You know, I got my car when I was 18, and then like a matter of days after you pulled up with your firebird. Jealous of what i had?

My car may not be the fastest thing on the road by any means but look at the condition of my car vs either of yours. Mines worth twice as much as what you have in your driveway.

So bring it. I'll race you any day of the week, and if I win then I'll just walk away with a smile. And if i lose, i'd congratulate you and that'd be the end of it. No excuses of "why I lost."

Just tell me the time and place little man.

And if I do win, You gotta tell me how it feels to have lost to a girl!

And no that wasnt a joke! Not at all! I fully believe that with the power that puppy holds, any tight fitting clothes, expecially a bra I could interfear with my breathing. People should obay that sticker, it might save some womens life someday if you break the sound barrier with a female passanger. :yawn:

And technically.. the red bird is worth more. The sound system alone is worth about half both our cars. And give me a month and the t/a will be runnin low 13's and be worth a LOT more. I thank you..

Wow Congratulations Mitch, you have a sound system in your car thats worth more then the car itself. What a prize you got there. Im jealous I gotta say.

And I bet you'll have a 13 second car. Sure. Keep talking. Until I see a time slip I gotta call your bullshit right here. :bsflag

Abd btw, the red is a plain firebird. And the condition isnt nearly as nice as mine so ughhh yeah, mines worth more. I thank you...

MitchMeister-
05-16-2004, 11:39 PM
Well.. lets see. The plain firebird has full exhaust, intake, chip, shift kit and others.. so its not so plain. Albeit its a auto v6.. lol.
And i am an audiophile so having a $1500 sound system is cool to me. I never said anything about your car.. and you just came out saying that my cars are POS.I was just goofing around sayin the ima beat u. Whatever.. So..

AND BTW. i have a 4 bolt mains 350 Right now.. and does anyone happen to know paul pfaffle ? cause ya.. he's building my 13 second engine. Thanks.

This is such bullshit. This is the last post, I dont really give a fuck about whos car is better.

I just take such pride in my car and if anyone at all says anything negative about it, hell yeah my guards will go up and I'll defend it to the fullest.

I didnt say your cars were a pos. What I said was condition wise, I believe mine are better. I myself dont care one bit about a sound system, you wont see me going down the road with the music blasting so you can hear the bass way before you hear any exhaust or anything.

And until you have your engine in and you take it to the grove and prive its 13 seconds, you cant exactly advertise thats what you have.

So Mitch, I have nothing against you. In fact I dont even know you too well since havent hung out since you were 12. Dont take anything personally. I havent seen your cars run, my opinions come from what i saw in your driveway last week. And you havent seen my car up close and personal in 3 years. Unless the day comes where we do happen to line up next to eachother, this topic is over.

Check out the Route Directions on the website, there's a link to a map of the meeting location in Racine. It's at Hwy 20 and I-94.

I know it's not great for those without an f-body. But I have to keep the number of cars to a manageable level. We'll probably have 40-50 cars, with just f-body's. Any more than that, and it's too hard to keep everybody together.

Also, the event is primarily a Midwest F-Body Association and F-Body ChicagoLand mailing list event.

The BCM Curises that have been offered and/or proposed have had no BCM attendance, or are discouraged before getting arranged. Apparently, only F-Body groups are willing to fund and/or sponsor a Cruise like this (well, actually, Vette clubs and Viper clubs do also), and their dues are paid by F-Body owners and no one esle. If BCM had a higher interest level in this type of event, there would be a BCM one that also included non-F-Bodies.

Sorry to be the bearer of obvious news, but I've driven Fieros and this is the 2nd F-body I've owned - and they are not similar.

I have some passenger seats open, I can take you if you're a non-smoker. Sounds like Tony has his Camaro to drive, so you'd probably get shotgun. I'd ask you to help out with duties such as navigation, note-taking, radio & phone communications, photography, etc. Are you in? If so, we'll meet at the Sat meeting point. Since the Mobil at Hwy 20 and I-94 (Exit#333) will be overwhelmed with F-bodies, could you please park at the Citgo across the street (north side of Hwy 20) - they have some truck parking in the back lot apparently, so you should be able to leave your car there - unless somebody is dropping you off. Be at Mobil by 8:30am. You can also bring your own camera or vidcam, too.

I was asked to post on here if anyone wants to get together somplace and drive down to the meeting spot. Its not a far drive by any means but if anyone going lives in the Waukesha/Pewaukee/Delafield/Occonomowoc area and they want to meet up and head to Racine as a group let me know.

05-19-2004, 11:19 AM
Good idea.
I hadn't thought about the distance from there. Exit #333 would be about 45 miles from the Hwy 83 exit #287 (via 894).
Do you have a cell # to post, for others to call you Heather? I won't be out that way, but if you're planning on arriving 8:30 I might meet up at the Hale, about 8:15.
Also having your radios on (Ch 12) would be good, too.
Haven't seen pics of your car, Heather. What color is it, and Jason's?

Having a mini caravan was an idea given to me by another member, so if anyones interested I suppose I could arrange a place and time if anyones interested. You could get ahold of me at 262-719-1274

Me and Jason will have our radios so that might be of help as well.

My car is a white '83 T/A and Jasons is a black '96 Z28 that looks like a SS due to the spoiler and hood. Im sure you can picture what both of those look like. Both me and Jason will probably have our cars together the whole time im sure so it wont be hard to spot. I've also been told its not hard to spot a blonde chick driving an f-body.

Hey Tony, if you or anybody else doesn't make the HC PnR, just get on I-94 and head towards the Airport, and just kepp going on I-94 until you get to Exit #333, which is Hwy 20 by Racine. Go to the Mobil station there at the Exit.
If anybody agrees on the gathering point, please post a seperate thread for it.


I am in if I can sneak out of work early :) 3rd shift sucks :(

Hey ramairvert, if you don't make it, not to worry. call me when you get off work, I'll arrange a spot for you to join us - I have a good spot for 9:30, and for 11:15am. What time do you get off, and where is that at? (what town, road, nearest highway)? Just be sure to read all of the Cruise Protocol at the website, and if possible bring your radio, set to Ch 12. You won't miss much, the starting point is where it's at for the Indiana and Illinois people to easily find.

The cruise will still go on, even if there is some scattered rain in the forecast. More than likely, we won't see much of it.
