MUSTANG WEEK!

y2k2GT · #1 (**permalink**) 07-16-08, 04:53 PM

Who's going? I'm leaving Sunday with about 9 other stang friends. We have two house's for everyone. A few others will be joining us in the middle of the week. Should be a great week. We've been the past three years and it's always a blast. Hopefully I'll see some of you there.

Where is this event located? I would go if it is close to me.

I think its in Myrtle Beach, right?

y2k2GT · #4 (**permalink**) 07-16-08, 07:14 PM

Yeah, it's in Myrtle Beach, South carolina. It just gets bigger and bigger each year. The first year there was just a couple of hundred, but I think last year there was over 700 and they are hoping to get over a 1000 this year. It's a blast, two years ago the yellow mustang registry showed up, never seen so many yellow stangs at one time. It's a really good time and a chance to meet some fellow stangers.

I live two hours away and I live Mustang Week!!! It's the most fun on four wheels I have ever had. I am heading down friday the 25th and I would love to meet some Stangnet forums folks down there for a meet and greet. Like I said before, if you find me, I will buy the drinks!!!

SaleenGT01 is already on the lookout for me.

That's one I've always wanted to go to as well. I've been to Steamboat Springs before, but not during the show. That is one of the most peaceful and beautiful places I have ever been.

Yea i'd love to go but it's too far away.

BurningRubber · #14 (**permalink**) 07-17-08, 12:38 PM

Cool, you guys do a great job. I think we have two bullits coming with our crew. Should be a blast. We plan on partying all week. Some of these folks can drink, we all usually go to Fun Ford Weekend together and have a great time the whole weekend. This will be the first time everyone has been able to make it to mustang week together.

Its F & Y Body week here right now.

Its their 3rd or 4th year and I beleive they are still under 50 cars as far as attendence. They do have some sweet events set up as we do. Their Speedway runs were tonight, and they get the LOCAL drag strip on Saturday.

Something some of us that might not want to go to Darlington should check into.

BurningRubber · #18 (**permalink**) 07-18-08, 07:35 PM

July 22nd - July 26th, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

i thought the MB track wasnt open?!?!?!?
you arent talking about the round track are you? there was a bunch of crap about the MB strip not being open b/c of permit issues from what i've heard

that would be SO much better than the damn 2 hour drive. i'm gonna catch a ride with some friends to the track this year

where at in california are you? im in sacramento.

Its events like this that make me jealous of you east coast guys because it seems like you guys have way more car oriented events out there then we do here in california.

It wasn't open for a few years.

They did a real nice renovation and got the "no go" because they went over their budget without obtaining the correct permits.

There was a hearing 2-3 months ago and there was a MASSIVE amount of people in favor of the track opening, so we got the job done.

They have been running for probaly a month and a half now. They are still working out some issues, I don't think they are printing time slips yet... but im not 100% on that.

F & Y Body week will be having their drag night at the NMB track.

There have been a few times they did not open up one week, but I could ask someone to see if they will be running that night.
