Thumbs up

Long Island used to have a pretty strong LS1 F-body presence back in the day, lots of good times on the few occasions that I went out there and met up with that crew.

Very true there was a good group of people back then.

HEy BTW if you hear of any atco rentals anytime soon through the jersey hookups that I could get into let me know. I would love to get into a rental within the next few weeks.

There are several F-Body guys in the Holbrook area, including myself when I visit home. Once in a while they goto Bald Hill on Tuesdays when they have that goin. No one meets up like they used to, like say, back in 2005 / 2006.

I agree fully! I go out as much as i can to whatever car shows/meets that i find and most of the time cops try and break it up even if were not doing anything... Its getting annoying

Well... if people would stop fighting, attempt drifting, doing burnouts and blasting stereos at car meets in public parking lots we wouldn't have to break your scene up. You want a car show/meet? Go to your local applebees/Chilis or location of your choice and make it an organized event with permission of the property owner. Then we cant tell you to leave since its private property and your there with permission. Get that in writing, and make sure if anyone expects repeat events there can be no shenanigans. Then post up a nice schedule of meets. Make it a f-body/east coast version of "cars and coffee".

Every car meet I go to we are respectful to the houses around us and never do burnouts, blast music, or fight.. Anyone that does these things we kick out and yet cops still bother us ... Why cant we have a place where we can meet and talk for a little while and not deal with crap from cops when were not doing a thing

Ive had it with cops they pulled me over too many time for no reason! So i could care less what they think anymore... Im a respectful driver and i still get **** for it so idc anymore and im sure there are many others that feel the same way

Island is talking about having a 5.50 1/8 mile index class this year.
If that happens, SSPerformance and myself will be racing in that event with our F-Bodies.

Where are the hangout spots now? Especially in Suffolk County.

It's a damn shame they closed down the West Hampton dragstrip years ago.

Yes it was! The Hamptons was one of the oldest operating NHRA Dragstrips on the East Coast. It operated from 1953-2004.

Link to car shows:

I have a link somewhere for cruise nights but can't find it?

Bob's on Sunrise Highway in West Islip on Sat nights is a good one as well as Oak Beach on Sunday mornings.

Good Luck making it to OBI, or captree... And if you do make it, there's the chance the lovely troopers will come and inspect your car, so nice of them....

This Island sucks for car guys.....

I miss Westhampton.

Suffolk county cops and state troppers suck for car guys!!! they give me so many problems with my car even when im just minding my own business... Nassau county cops on the other hand are much better when it comes to cars, at least where i live. They give me thumbs up when i drive past them
