Aug 6th and 7th Mt. Clemens Cruise and Clinton Twp Gratiot Cruise

[JpMotorsports]

Next weekend officially kicks off the big cruises and shows leading up to the Woodward Dream Cruise. 1st on Saturday Mt. Clemens is having their August open cruise/show in downtown from 2pm till 10pm more info can be found here http://www.mountclemenscruise.com/

Then on Sunday the Clinton Twp will host their Gratiot cruise from 16 mile down to 14 mile. The cruise runs from Noon to 6pm more info can be found here http://ctgratiotcruise.com/

I plan on doing both shows/cruises depending on the weather. Anyone else in Southeast MI plan on doing these shows/cruises?

[flash]

Sometimes I hate that I dont live up there so I could make the Dream Cruise as well as others but I will get there one day. Post us up some pics if you will.

It is pretty cool up here especially in August. The whole week prior to the dream cruise Woodward ave gets busier and busier each night. My parents just moved down to Georgia and they say they havent seen a cruise night half the size of the ones up here.

[flash]

What part of Georgia did they move to ? Im in the North Ga area and we have some decent cruises even though I have not attended many this year . There is a good one in Canton,another good one in Dawsonville ,Dalton ,Cartersville ,and Marietta but nothing like the Dream Cruise. The closest thing I know to the Dream Cruise is Cruisin The Coast in Mississippi during October and it is huge.

Jp..I plan to do both, but my grand daughters birthday is on Sunday (i think). I cannot miss her birthday this year cause last year I was in Strongsville, Ohio at the NOCC show. Plus at the end of August she will be moving to New York.

That being said, I still plan on being out there since I missed the South Gratiot Cruise.

Do you have a particular spot that you park for either one ? We will have to exchange cell phone numbers so that we can meet up.

For Mt. Clemens I usually try and park near Gus's Coney Island on the west side of the street so when the sun goes down it wont be in our faces blinding us. For Gratiot we park around 15 mile. you def cant miss my white 69 chevelle ( cause it will most likely be the ONLY white 69)

Are you an "early bird" or "long haul" when it comes to cruisin' ? The early bird is there really early and leaves early. The long haul will get there early and stay for the long haul of the day.

Long hauler for sure! Its hard for me to sleep the night before a car show. If we have friends come to a show and visit we might leave with them and get lunch or dinner but to me one of the best things about a car show is when its over and you hear all those cars come to life. Every year on Dream Cruise Day I am out there at 5am (now my feince joins me) to get our spot and meet with with my uncle and his 75 Trans Am. So we are up by 4 and down there at 5am. its fun watching Woodward come to life that day. Last year we were out there from 5am till 11pm sat through the rain and everything.

flash if I remember correctly there was a Secret Santa gift that really tried to temp you and the misses into coming up to the Woodward Dream Cruise.
