    All the years that I went to the Mopar Nationals, always went out to the exit to watch all the cars leaving!  Always get a couple that I think . . . how did I miss that in the show?   :dogpile:

    Sorry I don't want to see idiots spinning tires leaving a car gathering... It's hard enough to get a location where guys can get together, here locally a few guys doing stupid crap have caused quite a few good locations to stop allowing groups to gather....  I like to do a burnout from time to time too, but I take it out of town, away from the crowds, away from children... I don't need a bunch of folks to watch me & tell me how cool it was or wasn't.... I figure when a car guy drives down that country road & sees the marks he'll wonder who/what left them just like I sometimes do...

    We've lost major car shows & Cars & Coffee gatherings just cause someone thinks they are cooler than everyone else... News Flash! They aren't...

    From the videos I've seen, most of the cars at the cars and coffee events are exotics, and BMWs, MBs and the like.
    I've never been to one so I only have the online videos to go on.
    The evening cruises I attend often are mostly muscle cars and hot rods.
    From these observations, I take it that the key to getting rich is being able to drag your butt out of bed early!  :icon16:

    I agree, unless there is a designated areas at an event then don't be stupid.  This is a video from a local cars & coffee, but thankfully they still hold the meet ups in the summer and have not cancelled.
