Hola!

well, I haven't been here in a bit, but I saw Valk's FB posts about the BBQ and figured I'd stop by.

Hope everyone has a awesome time at the cruise.... the only place you can drive for 8 hours and put 12 miles on the odometer. Hopefully I'll be by to see a few of you, but cruise day goes by fast.

on another note, I figured I'd pass along a post that describes Michigan driving..... enjoy!

Detroit Driving Tips

1. First, you must learn to pronounce the city name. It's Di-troit. NOT DEE-troit. If you pronounce it DEE-Troit then we will assume you are from Toledo.

2. Forget the traffic rules you learned elsewhere. Detroit has its own version of traffic rules... Hold on and pray.

3. The morning rush hour is from 6:00am to 10:00am. The evening rush hour is from 3:00pm to 7:00pm. Friday's rush hour starts Thursday morning. Weekends are open game.

4. If you actually stop at a yellow light, you will be rear-ended, cussed out and possibly shot. If you're first off the starting line when the light turns green, count to five before going. This will avoid getting in the way of cross-traffic who just ran their yellow light to keep from getting shot.

5. Schoenherr can only be properly pronounced by a native of the Detroit metro area. That goes for Gratiot too. Schoenherr is pronounced SHAY NER. Gratiot is pronounced, GRASH IT.

6. Construction and renovation on I-94, I-96, I-75, I-275, I-375, The Lodge and Southfield freeways are a way of life. Just deal with it. There are two seasons in Detroit; winter and construction.

7. If someone actually has their turn signal on, it is probably a factory defect or they are from out of town.

8. All old men with white hair wearing a hat have total right-of-way.

9. The minimum acceptable speed on I-696 is 85 regardless of the posted speeds. Anything less is considered downright sissy. Don't even think of allowing more than one car length between cars.

10. That attractive wrought iron on the windows and doors in Detroit is not ornamental. DO NOT get out of your car.

11. Never stare at the driver of the car with the bumper sticker that says "Keep honking, I'm reloading."

12. If you are in the left lane, and only going 70 in a 60 mph zone, people are not waving because they are so friendly in Detroit. I would suggest you duck.

13. I-275 / I-696 is our daily version of NASCAR.

14. It's not M-10, it's "The Lodge".

15. That's not a lake, it's a pothole.

16. If someone tells you it's on Outer Drive, you better have a map.

17. The left turn is simple. If you want to turn left, go a 1/4 of a mile past your turn, get to the left, then make a left, then make a right. Now you have gone left.

Sidenotes:

6 mile turns into McNichols
8 mile turns into Baseline and Vernier at opposite ends
15 mile turns into Maple.
16 mile turns into Big Beaver and becomes Metro Parkway, then Quarton, somewhere along the way.
17 mile turns into Wattles
18 mile turns into Long Lake
19 mile turns into Square Lake
20 mile turns into Hall Road and then Highland Rd., before it becomes M-59
Main street starts as "Main Street" and turns into Livernois for no apparent reason.
If someone tells you to take "75 South to Detroit" make sure you merge onto 375 or you'll end up in Toledo.

 

Hello everyone
I hope all of you enjoyed the barbecue this evening and it appears that almost everybody coming tomorrow was there tonight
Just to confirm for anybody following this thread that we will be leaving from the back parking lot at the Auburn Hills Marrott at 8:30 in the morning to caravan to Pontiac Michigan and down Woodward Avenue to memorial park at the corner of 13 mile and Woodward
I encourage everyone to start from the hotel but if you prefer you may watch for us to come along Woodward Avenue at anytime and if we see any other crossfires we will certainly make efforts to let you into the group so that you can join us once we arrive at memorial park
Now a few photos from tonight's barbecue which was an absolute success

 

We are leaving from the hotel at 8:30 AM
We will gather at the back of the hotel and once all together we will pull out and head for Pontiac Michigan and then connect to Woodward Avenue and make the drive down to memorial park at the corner of 13 mile and Woodward

 

Hey old friend we'd love to see you so stop by Memorial Park anytime of the day tomorrow and look for 25 crossfires :...you'll find me sitting by one of them

 

I'm guessing the 6 speed droptop. Hell.... I'd have given you a deal on mine back then if I had any idea you were interested.

I really do want to make it a point to stop by..... I miss that car..... Wish I knew who has it.

I miss this awesome group of people too.

 

Back then I was pretty new to the group and loved my Crossfire Coupe but after 11 years and 95,000 miles it was just time for a change and this one was just the right time and it came from a friend who I helped find it for back in 2009 and she's had it all these years and taken awesome care of it and then it became for sale and it became mine
No matter what I want to see you tomorrow so please come by and see me
