DFW Metroplex Car Cruise Saturday, March 12 · 8:00am - 12:00pm

Event:http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=159583584093314

Breakfast/Cruise/Lunch for car enthusiasts!
All are welcome. However, this is not affiliated with my business and if you act like a jerk on the road, you're on your own!

The plan is to drive about 120 miles through Fort Worth, Aledo, Weatherford, Granbury, and several other small towns out to the west of the Metroplex. We'll be stopping along the way to get some photos and shoot the breeze with fellow car enthusiasts.
The cruise will end at the West 7th parking garage in downtown Fort Worth. A stroll over to Magnolia Motor Lounge may be in order. We shall see!

Wish gas wasn't as expensive to the point where I feel like there is beginning to be a tradeoff between mod money and driving money -_____-

Went on one of these before.. It is not worth the risk.

Just a bunch of dumbass idiots driving fast and reckless. I am not willing to be a part of that.

Dave, are you referring to that one the local Subaru guys coordinated a number of years back? DNE had some good presence at that event. It's like as if RKC did a cruise. Lots of different cars, no one good at following directions, so a ton of different groups going different directions doing all kinds of things. I was in my Maxima still at the time. Had a blast. My buddy Jeff (one of the DNE VPs) almost rear ended German in his white R33 that day. Freaked Jeff out, but it was all good. Jeff wasn't being stupid, just the group we were with had to slow quick (R34 > A32). Fun day, but long drive and definitely a few risky spots. I laughed after watching an Evo try to make a turn and lose control and slide into the dirt and then myself take the same turn and have no problems. Moron! haha

Honestly I did enjoy it, but it's definitely a bit dangerous considering far to many uncontrollable factors.
