does anyone know where cruising started. The history of the crusing scene??

I'm surprised McDonalds don't take more advantage of it. "Modded cars get some Nuggets free".

"Nuggets for Nuggets offer"

the cruising history goes back to last year mate when cruise wirral hit the streets and its been one big blast after another and it just keeps on growing matey :go:

Probs in america after the movie Grease lol

ne1 thought any more bwt this?

xXX

Christ knows,im guessing its been around ages,"cruising" has changed a lot over the years and all generations do it weather they think they do or not

define "cruise" a meet,a gathering of likeminded car enthusiasts

Old people with triumphs meet in the country to show of their babies while they smoke pipes and have picknicks

Young people sit around car parks and eat maccies and talk dirty shite all night

"cruise" as in driving

Old people go for a drive round the country roads with the top down in their MGB smoking their pipe la la la

Young people do lap after lap of the same block around the nightclubs in the town,or speed around the main roads


MAX POWER increased the popularity of modifying cars and atttending shows tenfold tho

cruise started in the usa after the ww2 when solders used willy jeeps and turned then into hotrods and it spread from there.

it started in calforia jus before ww2 when young people had there cars an started to take parts of an change them around (modifying) then they started to race each other on the salt flats then when it went dark they used to meet up at food outlets an talk about there cars an stuff but when ww2 started they where all called away but when they had leave from the army the had more money an thats when it got bigger cos while they where sivrving the would talk about there cars an thats how word got around the usa i know this because i wached a program about it when i was of work ill lol

Barney and Fred in a Convoy "Cruise"
