Cruisin the Coast
anyone goiing to cruisn the coast in Mississippi this week? there over 6000 cars already registered. should be a big one this year and really nice weather. I'm going tomorrow and will be by myself until fri night or sat nite when my daughter and her boyfriend are supposed to show up. bringing the rat rod and a case of moonshine to give to people I know and probably some I don't.. or if someone feels like getting in trouble, I'll give you a bottle and let you take the rat rod. if it's not back after a couple hours, just have the police call me and tell me where to pick it up

Just make sure not to brake check some poor isolated biker - that never ends well.

brake check? I've sat in bumper to bumper traffic for an hour just to get to the store a block away from my room. a couple years ago it took us 5 hours to get from Gulfport To Biloxi and back. some of that is people stop for the traffic to get ahead so they could do a burnout. of course I would never do something like that.. more than once... on the same block. but that wouldn't mattter. my truck just makes noise spinning the tires. it's too ight to leave tire marks much less smoke the tires. if a policeman trys to ticket me for burning out I'll just ask him to show me the tire marks. all i did rev my motor

Yep. Traffic. Absolutely awful every time I've gone. All I can remember ever doing at CTC is sitting in bumper to bumper traffic. That and it seemed like the '67-'68 Camaros and '60s Mustangs outnumbered every other cool car or truck by 100:1. Ocean Springs is kinda nice if you can get there early enough to get a parking spot and dont mind staying for the better part of the day.

yea, when the traffic is flowing sometimes you might see 12-15 of each pass by in 1/2 hr. mid day most of the traffic is modern cars driving to different locations. right before dark is when most of the classics are on the road coming back from the different shows. after dark is when the streets are wet in front of motels, smoke fills the air and blue lights start flashing. after midnight big block s10's fire up, burn out to the end of the block, come back and park, wait for the blue lights to leave and do it again. one night a couple years ago it seems everyone wanted to do it. watched a city bus, taxi cab, airport van, casino van, a limo, city constable, fire truck, 18 wheeler, an elderly couple in their buick, vw bugs and vans... even a metropoliton nash managed to squeak it's tiny little tires in front of our motel. after watching this a few hours, it's really hard to fight the urge to get out there... a couple times my evil twin bad johnny drove my truck but usually I just hand my keys to my daughter just to see her smile when she gets back
