Stangbangerz Spring Cruise-In (7th Annual!)

[facemelter71]

I would say if you wanna do burnouts,head over to walmart or some thing and have your camera crew follow you over there.

Later in the day I heard (and saw) one of the people in Orange shirts (I assume worked for QS&L?) were encouraging burnouts as people left. I did not and cannot confirm this, but I did hear it. The person in question may have been acting on their own accord, and when I left no one told me it was OK, (thus no burnout from my Mach.)

Better to be safe than sorry, though. It would be different if the group was told prior to (or during) the event if it was OK, but that is a pretty busy street and I am not so sure it would be OK regardless . . . unless there was a cop watching over the burnouts and stating to everyone they were OK.

Having a camera or not, it is about taking personal responsibility, and exercising self control. Anyone that has been around here for any length of time has probably read or heard of the past problems with doing burnouts at past events, and why participants have been expected not to do them.

Your logic would insinuate that because QS&L sells alcohol, they would have been "asking for it" if a brawl were to happen.
That's why so many things in this world are eff'd up, many don't want to take personal responsibility for the shit they do, and want to blame others, or inanimate objects.

Good post....LMAO at the example.

I said nothing about alcohol.I am assume you ate and got something to drink while you were there.If someone is at the exit with a camera they are wanting a action shot and that little instagation is all it takes. I understand why some of these people dont what burnouts because i have seen some of the driveing skills at these advents.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink.

If any of you have ever been to any of real shows as in pigeion forge, woodward dream cruise , streetmachine nats or so on,all it takes is for some one to empty a cooler on the street and thats all it takes to get burnouts started.I cant beleive how hard these is for some to understand.I realize if someone lacks driveing skills or horsepower they are better off staying in the parking lot. I also saw no burnouts in the parking lot while i was there.The street is a public road so if someone feels the need pull your skirt up and let it eat.

A real show?
Sunday was NOT a show. Your well on your way to pissing a lot of people off.

I remember the annual Mopar Nationals in Columbus. They used to take over Brice Road, and do burnout, after burnout for years until it got way out of hand and too many "close calls" with people lining the street. The cops were forced to stop looking the other way, and they shut it down.

Its not meant to get anyone mad, but sunday was a local small event compared to those events.Woodward gets around 30,000 cars and a million people for a one day event. Maybe some people should venture out to some real shows and see how it works.

[facemelter71]

This is far from a show.This is a group of friends getting together to park there cars and grab some grub and a beer.

We know its in the street,but its also up to the manager at QS&L if he dont want us back or not.Why even risk it.Like I said,the cool blinged out honda toilet bowls over at Walmart would probly love to see a smoke show.

[cstreu1026]

Burnouts are great until something goes wrong. Remember the guy with the Buell at the spring cruise a few years ago?

Do you even know what SBZ is about?

[cobrajoe]

Thats why i sad something about driving skills.were their is horsepower and instagation you will have this happen.

Well put Kim

[facemelter71]

No,where there is recklessness and the general need for not caring you will have this happen.Why are you argueing this.It has been said,NOT to do burnouts,whether its on the street in the parking lot,DONT DO IT around the cruise sites.All it takes is for one shitty customer to complain and the SBZ crew is 86'ed from the parking lot.All thanks to some one burnin them off.

[IWRBB]

I dunno, I just have this problem with my car a lot of times. When I use the skinny pedal on the right, the rear tires rotate faster than the front ones, and smoke comes from the back. I get lots of rear tire wear too. ???? I'll get it fixed for the fall cruise in.

[DocG2828]

I didn't make the show.....but I can't believe this is conversation is still going.

How hard is it to understand that burnouts might and often can piss of the management of the place that was nice enough to let you hang out there. I appreciate the effort that people put into finding spots for us car guys to hang out....lets respect their simple requests.

And honestly, if your car doesn't accelerate on the street without burning out, check out Maximum Motorsports and learn how to let out the clutch. Personally I like when my car actually moves when I press the gas pedal.

[02mingryGT]

fasthawk,

The only point I was trying to make is don't blame it on the cameraman. Man up and except responsibility. In other words "I did a burnout because I effing wanted too".

peace.
