In truth. I support it for the most part, perhaps 2 cars is a bit tight but I can't really see the police getting involved if you aren't causing a bother. Which based on the 306ocs meets if very much true, the fairly recent Yorkshire one was most pleasant and we spent most of the time in the pub having a drink and a chat. Not revving the engines or proving whose edge speakers are louder.
Half the people bitching on facebook are saying "oh well where will we race now?" "they should give us a drag strip or somewhere abandoned to go"
No they shouldn't! The government has more important things to spend its money on than giving you somewhere to rev the tits of your 1.2l corsa just because they can't be asked to spend the money going to a proper car show like the rest of us.
Retro rides in Sheffield was good, good quality cars and people who had a genuine interest in both yours and their cars. Unfortunlety the chavs found it and raced around on the streets outside so it got shut down, I don't blame them for shutting it down as it was unsightly/noisy. I'm still furious at the chavs who ruined it though as the pub took a chance on us only for them to damage the car owners and possibly the pubs reputation.
In short
"cruises" should be banned.
Club meets where you know all the people attending are okay.
