Default Woodward Cruze

What’s going on up there? Any pics? Last night it rained, I’m shooting for Wednesday evening with a few buds. We usually hit Nickey D’s Coney.

Do Not forget to drop in on the Pontiac Transportation Museum Saturday and get a glimpse of what's going on!! Hope to open this year, permits pending. It's in Pontiac just off the Woodward loop !!

Beautiful evening last night.

Made it from the top of the loop down to about Big Beaver and back before I timed out.

Supposed to rain this afternoon and evening so I'll probably drive the truck and come north from 8 mile during my commute home.

Just got home. Wow, there were so many cars out there. Spent the afternoon driving around out there. Made one complete loop. There are so many people out there watching. It was incredible.

Saw Jay Leno drive by in a Chrysler, and about 40 Ford GT’s pulled out for a Cruze, how much would that be in $ do you think.
Did the whole loop at 8 am after getting a Coffee and a donut to go at Avon donuts across from M1.

Made three passes on Friday. I come in from the north, at the tip of the loop in Pontiac, and make it as far south as 8 Mile or 9 Mile and then back.

Made one pass on (early) Saturday morning, and then breakfast.

Didn't see ya even though I was looking. It's a little tricky checking everything out while driving.

One of the guys from the V8 Buick site posted this video of some Woodward burnout action by the loop in Pontiac.

The few years that I have gone to the cruise, I have been on the southbound side of the loop and it can get pretty nuts there!
