David sorry that that happened. You are right turn out was great.
For the most part everyone was well behaved in my opinion. I mean we are all adults and if anyone did something out of line they should be held liable, however as far as you being ""[i]head criminal in charge of vehicle mayhem"" that is total nonsense. I was riding my motorcycle this time around I had my Pearl Z at the shop, but it was a blast ether way. We got into the park quickly so we got lucky and avoided the whole getting booted out the park, but A good 30+ cars did still make it all the way to Skyline Lodge...and we did end up exiting through 211 to try and avoid anymore BS. Luckily there were not Cops on 211 on our way out. Sorry you didn’t make it all the way down there.

My apologises for promising a leisurely Sunday drive, then everyone getting hassled by the park police. It was certainly not my intention to turn everyone into criminals.
I approached one of the park cops to see why the various 350Z/G35 groups were being pulled over. I explained that I organised the cruise. Big mistake. I went from organiser to head criminal in charge of vehicle mayhem. Asked if I had a Special Use Permit , the Chief explained that we had upset the patrons, and ordered that we vacate the park immediately at VA211.
The Chief took my licence and registration, and said that I will be investigated for violating Title 16, U.S. Code and Title 36, Code of Federal Regulations, 2.50.
Despite the cops and being ordered to leave the park, turnout was nothing short of incredible!

Well the other 30 of us cruised around till 5 and then headed down 211 with no troubles from any rangers or LEOs. Sorry to hear about yalls (yeah I said yalls) group.
We have a lot of video and pictures to sift through. I saw so many people with cameras I'm going to make a thread just for posting the skyline pictures and videos. BRB

This is what we ALL need to do.
DavidV needs to post up his fines...and everyone needs to paypal him at least a dollar. I suggest 5 bucks, but I know some of us are broke college stundents.
DavidV please post up your paypal address so that we can all pay for the ticket, that we all earned. If there were people passing and driving like that, then we all had the responsibility to kick them out ourselves or to stop them. This is all about the turns, you can drive an idiot on your own terms.
One car peeled at at the Fing gate, I hear it was a red G, trying to located him. I heard the lambo and viper was doing like 100mph?
whats the scoop on all this? true or facts.
This is why I only do NGC stuff now, younger kids have no idea, someone could of easily killed a person crossing the street, or in the road taking pics at those speeds.
I have been to skyline drive about 25 times in my G. I have had a blast each and ever time.... this one blows and reminds me that large groups need to be takin to the track.
All of these so called skilled Fast and Furious drivers never show up to the track where they will get there azzes handed to them.
So done with this schit....

I met with the police chief and a civilian with a baby. The civilian complained that a race car had passed him at a high rate of speed almost causing an accident. The police chief mentioned “We have had a number of complaints.”
The group was huge. 90 percent of the drivers were cool, but as usual, several got crazy and took it too far. Unfortunately the entire group has been stigmatised for the actions of a few.

I think we made a hole in the ozone layer yesterday.
Then I got behind mike (03threefifty) and my eyes were watering. Even while cruising mike you are laying out billows of black smoke LOL I find it hard to believe you got such good mileage?????

Most of the civilians I saw were smiling and waving when we cruised by.
By the way, if anyone was with the group that pulled off on that left hand overlook where we got lectured by the female Park Ranger, I was curious what her beef was? We were freaking parked when she pulled in behind us. I asked one guy what was up and he (jokingly) said they were looking for a yellow Z........I had one of 2 yellow Z's
hahahaha very funny..........This group here:

And the other yellow Z that was there was a friend of a friend. I told them about the meet and they both brought their Z's out; neither are on the forums. He was an older guy who was well behaved, even cruising at 80 on 66 was too much for him...lol.
