Much better than anything we have in Michigan besides woodward. Only downside is it was mostly imports. But man I've never seen crusin like that.
I'm probably going to make a trip out there early this summer.
Yeah. It's crazy there on the weekends. Last summer had the most cars there on the weekends of any summer I've gone.
Your right, it is mostly ghey imports, but it's so fun destroying them when the light turns green. (this is on the local track around the corner of course ).
It gets so crazy with the cars that the local PD contracts about 8-10 tow trucks that go up and down the turnpike and tow any cars that are loitering in parking lots. They don't care what you say to them to try and stop them. They will tow it with you sitting in the car. Not to mention you get stopped just for driving on the turnpike. Don't have to do anything wrong. I see them using the unmarked Camaro to stopped some cars.
I saw someone in a Jetta about to get towed at Taco Bell this summer, and the tow truck would not let him go. So he hopped in the car, threw it in reverse, drove up over the curb, onto the grass and took off.
Good times, good times.
