Also let's not be coy here, the car enthusiasts are there for H2Oi which has become something bigger than what it was when it was initially conceived. Both the organizers and the city know that.

Im not really sure how they could work to make it safer. Everyone keeps saying that but never has any solutions or ideas. Almost no one goes for H2O, im being serious when I say its just enthusiasts showing up for a weekend. Its just a weekend known to have alot of other enthusiasts there so even more come. The 3-4 VWs that I went down with didnt even go to the show. Its overpriced and over run by APR.

As for being a hypocrite, I've been on exactly one of those "cruises" and really was not aware of what I was getting into when I showed up. Also should point out that the cruise took place on deserted mountain back roads, not a crowded 3 lane highway.

Im not blaming you and you are also not the only one who has said something to me about this. Deserted roads are the worst because none of those people that live out there will be expecting cars doubling or tripling the speed limit. Not to mention most of us here are not professional drivers and accidents can and will happen. Sometimes the greatest danger to you is...you.(Not saying you specifically mark haha) There could be kids crossing streets or running out of driveways or cars doing the same and they wouldnt be exopecting that. At H2O YOU KNOW what is going on and what is to be expected. Also Coastal Highway was high traffic and there was no way to get above 60-70. Drag racing really wasnt a thing there during the 8am-2am peak hours...maybe late in the morning when the roads cleared.

So I should probably explain that I had "cruises" with my old car club (Md Z Club/ZCCA) where they were exactly as-advertised. Maybe a little bit of speeding but mostly we'd drive around in the country, find a place to eat and enjoy the scenery.

I was not expecting what the MAZOC "cruises" turned out to be. My girlfriend certainly wasn't. I mean it was fun and all, but I wouldn't do it again for multiple reasons, high among which is that I am so goddamned tired of repainting the front end of that f'ing car.

Tomorrow? Nah. My car is still in the body shop. I should have it back on Tuesday but will be avoiding highway driving for a while.

Oh I think excessively cambered cars look terrible. Like a little kid stepped on a matchbox car and broke its wheels but to each his/her own I suppose.

People got bitchy here the last time I went off on a rant about VIP/hellaflush BS so I try to leave it alone.

Seriously though, the first time I saw a car with wacky camber I assumed it was some sort of joke that I just didn't understand.
