What street/City did you cruise in High School?

McHenry Ave. in Modesto.

'85/86 with my brother and older friends... and then '86-1990 (I think) when they closed it down.

What a blast.

Living in Carpinteria, Ca. 63-64, used to cruise State st. in Santa Barbara on friday and saturday night. I'll never forget the gray 55 chevy that ran a chain driven blower on a small block. He scared the hell out of me the first time he pulled up next to me at a red light. It sounded like a thrashing machine.

Later moved back to Nashville, Tn, used to cruise the circuit around Music city to all the Shoney's Big Boys, also Church street and West End. Many great memories......

My family moved a lot.
I was driving a tri-power GTO back then and would go "Mopar hunting"
If it was a bright color Mopar with wings or scoops I'd try to get them in a race.

Don't remember a chain driven blower but Jack Evans had a Grey bad ass 55 and used to cruise state street around that time he couldn't be beat.

I raced at Checkered flag in a 1934 Ford 1/2 ton in primer with only three drum brakes.......line had broken on the 4th, so my bud just plugged it....too stupid to realize I should have at least disconnected one more and just have the back brakes. A wicked pull!!! Raced a 442-light blue!
Also cruised "The Gut" from Herfys hamburgers on the North end of Everett, to Herfys hamburgers on the South end of Everett in my 1969 "Screamin Urine" Mustang-my first car...and still have it too, matter of fact!
