Been a few years since I attempted to organize a FG meet at the Woodward Dream Cruise, but based on renewed interest, I'll give it another shot.
Copying most of the text from past threads.
What? The Woodward Dream Cruise! Its one of the biggest (if not THE biggest) one day automotive celebrations of all things cars! 40,000 cars, 1.5 million people. Basically its a 15 mile long, 8 lane wide outdoor car show. Mostly classic American muscle, but you can see everything from Italian exotics to one off customs on the street. The Big 3 also have huge participation. Ford closes down an entire road in Ferndale for a 700+ Mustang display. GM occasionally shows concept cars up in Birmingham. And Chrysler has a display up in Pontiac.
When? The actual cruise is August 15th 2020, but every night starting around the 12th (if not earlier) will have hundreds of cars out.
Where? Woodward Ave, Michigan. Between Ferndale MI and Pontiac MI
Why?
People I know are interested:
@LeVeL
@thevictor390
@Der Stig
@Crazyjeeper
@Nabster
Everyone else is absolutely welcome to come too! The more the merrier.
One comment, in past years, I hosted people at my apartment - I don't think I shall be doing that next year - largely because I do not know where I will be living in August 2020 as my apartment lease is up in June and I am fully intending on buying a house, but at this point, who knows where, when, how big, etc.
@CraigB, I remember you'd wanted to come in the past, but typically have a drag event at Mo-Kan on/around the same weekend. Maybe with this far advance notice, alternate plans can be made? I'm willing to bet that a lot of the people that come to your drag strip would be the same people that would love to visit Woodward with their cars.
Some highlights from this year: 8 1969-1970 Mopar wing cars, 6 Corvette C8s, 5 DeTomaso Panteras, an AutoZam AZ1, a 1978 Oldsmobile 442 with a midengine blown V8, a 5th gen Camaro shooting brake, every gen Ford GT, 30+ Dodge Demons, a Ferrari 250 GTE, the Mil-Spec track prepped HMMVW, BMW Z8, and much much more.
Shameless self-plug:
