    No you dont have to race in order to be apart or participate in the scene. If you read what I posted it also said other events as well. That includes meets and car shows.

    Yes ending up in a parking lot is weaksauce. I agree.

    But Its not just show cars out. My car isnt a show car. LOL.

    The scene just isnt what it used to be.

    Back in the days nobody had a problem with standing in a parking lot, as long as it wasnt hours on end, we all had fun, i miss the days...

      i dont get balls deep in the cruises and other events becuase i just tend to get bored with slow show cars. not many people around here are even bothering to put time into their cars unless its to looks good at the ONE local show we have. im not into show cars i like racing and it seems that most people are just out to look good in their car.

      we need to bring back the glory days when people would actually mod their cars then ACTUALLY RACE

      i wanna see rust ass ef hatches with gsr swaps and decent turbos kits, flat black with 4 mismatching wheels. id hangout with that guy

        Don't you hate it when some kid beats you at the drag strip, then calls you out on the street, but backs down when you're more than eager to meet his challenge?

        That's what I call a waste of gas and time, haha.

          Maybe I've just outgrown the parking lot standing of my younger years - back when we used to Wal-mart stand like 3 or 4 years ago.

          Man you all just know me so well don't you.

            a few years ago, it was easy to go out of town and get some races in, or even highway pulls past best buy, but then the yuppies started following everyone around, attracting too much attention, and bringing the racing into town. Thats when the older crew quit coming out, and quit giving a shit, it never fails. Ask any of the older guys, thats what did it in for us.

              Well I am one of the older guys and I agree with you completly the scene is dead. But instead of not coming out come and explain how things work. I have tried but if only one person says something no one listens

                ^^^Exactly. Its not like I am a young buck either. We tell these kids to settle the fuck down all the time. But whatever. I Guess the car scene will prolly be completely dead after this summer.

                  Just few words for thought after reading all the posts.

                  A car real enthusiasts passion comes from his heart(as corny as it may sound) not his pocket book.

                  And, it's not what you drive, it's how you drive.

                      Lol you guys are funny I agree gas is high so you don't wanna drive around but then when it comes to socializing in a parking lot you bitch also. I don't understand I guess. If you want to go to the country and race then come to the meet and call people out. Psi2hi if people like you or the real OGs of the scene came out once and awhile it would actually be something again. Just my opinion

                          It hasn't been fun to parking lot stand for a lot longer than 4 years....

                          The best days were down at McDonalds, NW Autobody, and NW Audio on main way back in the day.

                            lol OMG i don't go and stand in a parking lot and follow the same 3 people around. I was into is about 4 years ago when it was acutually big meets and the people with 'fast' cars would go south of town and race. Now its just this 'follow the riced out show cars' around shit and that gets real old, real fast.

                            Dragstrip- raced my car. hasn't changed so why race again?
                            AutoX- not my thing. so why spend money to go?
                            Car Shows- seen them all before, why spend the money to see the same cars that i can go to Kmart and see for free...

                            Oh and Rex, i support the 'scene' by doing what i want to my car and enjoying it when i drive it. Didn't know i needed to rep.

                            Brandon (Spanish) im in the same boat as you are.

                                  no you dont, a car is a car. show up if want, play if you want.

                                  shit i was out in my probe..i mean ferrari. now i wasnt involved back in "good ol days" but i know i have done plenty to contribute to the scene. obviously its different now that im 1300 miles away. but why would it be such a big deal to stop by and just say "whats up" and bs for a few.

                                  i can remember a few nights going out in my old coupe, when all the lights when out on 13th and i decided to turn mine off and shit can it.

                                  or when me a certian tc, another certain black coupe, and a certain sti....pretty much kicked the shit outta 13th, 25, and uni (haha my brakes locked up!!!).

                                  or how about when me a max got pulled over for tripple the speed limit down 45th... yes they were very stupid decisions. but if i had to go back i wouldnt change a thing.

                                  i got a feeling a little black sedan is gunna come back and visit soon. hopefully people arent being pussy ass's and come out to play.

                                      It hasn't been fun to parking lot stand for a lot longer than 4 years....

                                      The best days were down at McDonalds, NW Autobody, and NW Audio on main way back in the day.

                                      QFMFT! Yup, when the V8KILLR, that bad ass corvette, and IROC-Z (ILLROCU?) reigned. The Monkeys would roll by rev'n in the Chevelle and Playtime Performance was originated. Oh the nights.

                                      It would be great to return to those days, but as soon as Fargo PD banned cruising Broadway, it seemed like everything went away. I am all for helping create a safe/fun cruise environment, so if someone has an idea for how tintmasters can help, just holler.

                                          Unless tintmasters begins to thin the gene pool of retards I don't see it getting any better...
