Re: Woodward Dream Cruise & GTG - August 20, 2011 - Michigan
Kim I appreciate the comments.
While I didn't actually make the video, I did think it was funny. But I'm a guy so I see your point at being offended. That Hitler video is kind of a joke, a lot of people have used it to make fun of someone else. I've seen it used many times.
Understood, it's a big harsh, but you need to understand we're not particularly impressed with Doc.
He lost his mind, accused us of hitting his car, called us everything from rednecks to lowlifes, basically stated he wants to fraudulently hide an accident from the next buyer (no carfax), etc. This is one of your leaders?
I REALLY hope he also wasn't one of the two pompous jerks who parked under the overhang blocking the hotel entrance during the rainstorm while women and children hoofed it through the pouring rain (while the CF boys sat and watched the people getting soaked as they gazed at their precious cars through the window).
The Impala community is strong, and they stick together. We are also used to challenging (and being challenged) by other car groups, so I guess it was like mixing oil and water in some cases. The people there seemed a bit, um, delicate I guess.
Just so you know, I am the original owner of my 95 SS and I also own a highly modified 2007 Trailblazer SS that I took to the track with all of 100 miles on it. I also own a 69 Camaro SS396 Convertible as well as a 94 Impala SS with a big block 502 stuffed in it. I'm not telling you this to impress you but to tell you most of the Impala guys are into performance and driving their cars hard as well as looking good. I can run 11's and I also won my class in the car show with my 95 SS. We got the impression that the CF people were generally 'waxers' which is what you call people who just buy a car for looks. It's ok to be a waxer, but it's a bit lower on the car guy food chain. Drive it like you stole it!
But I digress. I guess the point was Doc, who was only there one night, was making wild accusations and comments based on something we didn't do AND making comments on our behavior based off 3rd hand info.
Sorry for appearing to be such jerks, we're just a bunch of guys going on 15+ years with our cars so we like to have a little fun.
