There were quite a few 'Vettes at Roses when I showed up around 3:45. Didn't see any C7Z06s, just a couple of C5 & C6 ones. There was a real nice Procharged, I think, red C6 parked next to my friend's Maggie'd C6.

Saw a blue Z tonight drive past the hotel. Plenty of cops pulling guys over on 5th St. mostly for burnouts. Lots of Vettes of all years down here this year.............along with WAY too many pickups.

Wow! You got a variety in there... nice job. It doesnt matter what year they are.... vettes are the most sexy cars made. Im a personal fan of the C3.... esp 69. I owned a 73 and spoke w a guy at length that had one there.

now i like the C6 Z.

Thanks for your photos!

There's a lot I missed, def some cool rides out there including a '63 split window. I have tons of pics of other amazing non-vette rides.

Soon as I get a chance I'll post some more. Did you catch that orange C7 at the inlet with the pearl orange metallic paint and matching wheels? That was KILLER!
You took some great pics! Thanks for sharing.

I saw it but was unable to snap a pic. There were sooo many rides there; I tried to take pictures of some but I would have needed more time. I did have the pleasure of meeting some fellow forum members. I'll be sure to come back next year.

Decent video including a nice stop light drag between a Vette and a Stang. I didn't see the shopping cart though.

Wow.... that was ballsy..... cops were everywhere..... guess he got away w it. I saw some that didnt.... but they were mostly PUs and young kids in Mustangs.

I remember seeing the dudes on the scooters... talk about risking your life.... mortorcycle yes.... scooters no!

Btw.... that Silver truck at 2:12 into video was sick!!! The blower was 6' from the ground..... engine block damned near on the pavement. It had a chrome bed..... you could tell there was tons of money in its build. It was parked at 123rd on Friday.

I wish these pick up guys would get their own show and quit messing things up for the real cruisers who just want to cruise and show off their rides. There were 3 cops at our hotel on 5th on quads who would hide at the corner by the stop light. Guys were throwing buckets of water out on the road, and whoever did a burnout got pulled over into our lot. Everyone was clapping for the cops and they were really good natured about it all. One guy asked the cop if he was having fun and he laughed and said "heck yeah!" lol They just couldn't be everywhere. What got my goat was the boardwalk. Dogs aren't allowed on the boardwalk after May 1 but it was packed with them. And kids on skateboards and bicycles that were finding it very funny to try and run into people without actually doing it, but scaring them none the less. One pregnant lady was nearly run down by two kids in a surrey. Too many kids. But there's not much OC can do about it.

Did anyone get a pic of the "airplane" car?

ratomicZ06

Diesel PU's were horrible and spitting black **** everywhere. ******* in front of me did it and when i stopped.... realized i had black crap all over front of car.

Did i mention the kids in mustangs? Every 4.6 or 5.0 is a bonified race car.... without much of a muffler.

Overall i enjoyed it though. ... didnt do too much stop and go clutching. I timed the trips to downtown and mostly stayed north of the traffic.

Always enjoy seeing all the cars..... including the "Wally World or Bust" station wagon w all the luggage on top. And the rat rod with the skeleton..... i swear he was following me! Spooky! Lol.

Anyone get a still pix of that shopping cart??? Please post tx.

I saw it at hoopers but he took off before I could snag a pic; its one of speedy cops creations and can be found on the 24 hours of lemons website:

I think my favorite car of the entire weekend was the diesel rat rod. Guy had a 37hp diesel on it. I loved every inch of that car.

Thanks for that info! I missed taking a pic on the street when I saw it.
