Here is a July newsletter for anyone that is interested. Parking is changed for spectators but not the participants. Free samples of Gulf seafood. We did that last year it was wonderful, boiled shrimp. Looks like John M's. favorite vehicle has made the cover.
Ok, went today to pick up my packet from the Cruise Central site today. Had my son and grandson with us so I did not get to take as many pictures as I would have liked. Had a bunch of fun though!
I was able to make it out to a several cruisin sites both yesterday and today, in addition to juggling grandbabies in town at the same time. We got up yesterday and went first to Bay St Louis early and spent most of the day there enjoying the cars passing by and gulf breeze. Then we went to Pass Christian to get my Crusin card stamped there too and drove thru that area just looking. Still trying to narrow my pictures down to stovebolts and only GM trucks. In my first picture way down the street if you zoom in you can see the green hood on my truck only. Alot of good looking trucks in all the locations. There were non stop vehicles going thru Ocean Springs from the time we got there at 7 AM until we left about 2 PM. We wanted to get our card stamped at 2 other included locations, Diberville Ms and Edgewater Mall. By having all 5 location stamps gets us entered in the 30 prizes opportunities they give away every year.
These photo's are from Ocean Springs which is a very nice area for a venue because it is about 80 percent shady. Some of them were taken as trucks were passing by so maybe not so good with people and other stuff in picture.
Here is a local news feed of the first day of Cruisin. At the beginning in the drone shot at the bottom you can see my bright green 53 in downtown Gulfport.
They had a flame throwing contest at one of the casino’s during Cruisin. I did not go to it but saw a very interesting setup on a rat rod type vehicle that was there. He had a set up of twin turbos driven by his exhaust but instead of dumping that into his engine he dumped it back into the exhaust no doubt with extra added fuel and a spark as it finally exited his pipes. It is the one in the below video shooting flames 30-40 ft into the air.
This is a neat video comparison of 1 days difference in the small town of Bay St Louis all the cars going by and looking like a ghost town the next day. 😎
