Well there are a few official car clubs around. Panhandle Cruisers is one of the most known and oldest ones. There is Emerald Coast Jeepers, White Sands Jeep Club, Pensacola Corvette Club, and a couple of others. These are probably the most organized and known clubs. There are a few smaller ones but not really what I would call a club. There used to be Gulf Coast FBodies but they are no longer around.

I personally avoid Bayfront and TGI Fridays on Saturday nights. Mostly idiots who get kicked out every week. I tend to have a better time at the Burger King on 9 Mile Road at the Panhandle Cruisers Show and Shine. Lots of nice Muscle cars and occasionally some nice imports.

Burger King usually last from about 4pm to 7pm. Bayfront goes from about 9:30pm to 11:00pm. And TGI Fridays is usually from 11:00 til everyone leaves or gets kicked out.

Anyone still goto the street races in Pensacola Beach? When I lived in Gulf Breeze back in the early 2000's that was a pretty fun spot on Saturday nights! I'm now in North Texas so I don't plan on attending any but just wanted to see how much the car sceen has changed from when I used to go...

Most of the old racing spots are more patrolled. People still find places to race but most are in riskier places and riskier situations.

If anyone in NW florida wants to attend its a small group thing. for mainly pontiacs, but all is welcome.

So here we go.....
Destin Commons GR8 Cruise In.
4300 Legendary Dr ....Corner of Emerald Coast Pkwy (Hwy98) and Danny Wuerfel Way

January 14, 2012 Rain Date January 21, 2012

Meet 10am
Get People Parked and Get to know

Lunch 12PM
Restaurant not Selected yet but need to get somewhere that can hold all of us.

?Photo Opportunities? 1PM
Would love to have some Models or Something to add to the Photos, possibly a backdrop? Just Ideas.
Also Continue Get2Know

Cruise Begins at 2PM
Cruise will begin on Matthew Blvd in a Overflow parking lot big enough for us to line up with out police assistance crossing Emerald Coast Pkwy. Matthew Blvd is one Traffic Light West of the Commons. The Cruise will then head south, Down Matthew Blvd to Scenic 98 (Hopefully its Sunny the emerald water and white sand make an awesome backdrop). Left Hand Turn onto Scenic 98 and Cruise @5.5 Miles along the Beach (yes i know its not Bikini weather but...) to Run into Emerald Coast Pkwy once again. Then Make a Left on Emerald Coast Pkwy towards the West and the Commons again. Meeting back into their outer parking lot ...those who want continuing to Cruise to 9 Mile rd meet in Pensacola. This last stop at the Commons will allow those who need to head off in a different direction a chance too, but id really enjoy seeing GR8 over run the 9 mile meet and possibly Bayfront late that night.

OK i know a lot of info on Cruise but lets focus on getting the people to the Commons.

Please add ideas.
