You know I've never been there. Had some friends that have been there, but i've never made it out there. 2.4 hour Enduro Race? Sounds like fun.

end of summer = woodward dream cruise. the cruise of all cruises people come from as far away as hawaii to drive the woodward strip, i donno if you are in to classic and muscle cars much, but its just a huge orgy of classic muscle and exotic cars, in all honesty it will make any other car show and/or meet youve ever been to look like a pickup touch football game compared to the superbowl. http://www.woodwarddreamcruise.com/

its august 19th, last year IMO was kind of a weak year and they still had 1.7 million people attend.

[Valo666]

holy freaking crap..1.7 MILLION PPL?...and that was a weak year???...yeesh. And yes i do like classics and newstalga and muscle cars. My fav car of all time is a 70 Chevelle SS 396, black with whit SS stripes or the orange with the white SS stripes. Interesting crusie though. Its still awhiles away, but never hurts 2 plan ahead.

crazy huge...the woodward cruise.

[boosted_K2]

yea, trust me, you dont want to miss it. its a 16 mile stretch, almost exclusively 4 lanes, in both directions bumper to bumper.

[Valo666]

only older? or is there a section/part of it for newer cars 2?? I would say lets go rep 6gc if there is a newer part 2

[Akimbo]

for the most part its all ameican stuff.

[boosted_K2]

ya, you get reemed good for driving an import down there unless its either a true exotic or a very very nice recognizable car... japanese cars are otherwise dispised. you have to remember this is "MOTORCITY USA" and the absolute heart of the hard headed UAW and all its followers, us import guys usually have our seperate meets and events... best place to find out about that stuff is xceedspeed.com. My recommendation is to drive something else down there, back when i had my fairly nice celica i was denied parking at a lot that had a bunch of open spots because it was a "privately rented lot".
