rolling with so many cars is pointless. last year we lagged, stopped too much, and was unorganized and got lost/seperated, goin there and during the cruise setup by u guys. very unorganized. by the time u guys get near LA, we would have already got there, checked in to our hotels, and be headin out to eat. ![[dance]](graemlins/dance.gif) ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)

Please keep your drama off my post.. Its not my fault you guys went your own way when you got to LA.. you got lost, we didn't.. also forgive us if we stopped at the base of the grapevine for so long... there was a SNOW ADVISORY on the hill.... forgive us for thinking of the safety of others... BTW the long lunch stop.. I remember some of you also lagging when we left.. So we stopped for lunch for an hour.. I am not going to tell people to swallow there food whole or peoples children...so dont come on our event and bash it with out telling the whole truth.. We are glad you are not joining us this year.. we dont need the comments like yours to hate on something you cant accomplish on your own.... Oh and not to forget the good jobs and praises we got from EVERYONE who was on the cruise.. but look someone changed there mind.
Guess your group is the only one who hated we didn't go over 80mph? Because this year we already have just as many cars signed up and we still have 2 months to go.
Oh and BTW for those who care.. Nitto Tire is a official sponsor for the Cruise Friday and also they are donating a set of tires for the raffle will have Saturday during the Show n Shine. ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

So if you have so much of a problem with the cruise, why would you even waste the time or energy to post up a comment that is entirely negative??? If you had a crappy time last year that's great! Stay home! No need to ruin the perception of other Mustang enthusiasts, who quite possibly could have a great time this year, but because you just don't like someone you make the whole cruise seem like it was a waste of time. You're wasting your time posting things that just aren't true. The cruise last year was great and well organized, and quite possibly one of the coolest sites that I've seen! Don't listen to this guy! Who is he anyways?

I'll be down to go...
On a side note, I think that as many people as possible should bring walkie-talkies. You should set an "official" cruise channel that everyone knows to chat on for whatever reason. Then, if there is an emergency, someone has to stop for some reason, etc., then it can be an organized stop...Maybe we will lose less people that way?

Yep we already have that on our list of things to pick up and we will let everyone know at the drivers meeting prior to leaving what channel we will be using.
