My first Mustang Alley/Dream Cruise but certainly won't be my last. Wow! Can't stop telling everyone about it. My wife is tired of hearing about my 3 days of Mustang-ing. I did the Auto Alliance Tour/Roush Open House/Track Day/Friday Night Woodward and of course the Alley. The 86 GT logged 701 miles from Thursday to last night.
Kudos to Ford; they are starting to get this listening to their customer thing. I had several of them ask me what I like about my 12, what I want to see in the 15; etc. Met and talked to Dave Perciak; nice down to earth guy.
Have to say though that my favorite Mustang was the one drug in with the 4 Wheeler and had 4 Flat Tires!

Tony, was yours the Sterling Grey with the gloss black 19s? Those wheels look great.
Chad, I saw you a few times but didn't get a chance to make it over to chat. Sorry bout that.
There were a few winners from TMS. I may or may not have ended up with a 3.73 Torsen axle.

I think next year we should try to get a side lot on the alley specifically for TMSers. There were enough of us there. I know a few of the organizers, so i will see what i can do to make this happen.

Great weekend!! Was able to meet Chad and thats about it from TMS... Although looks like I was parked only a couple cars down from Tony. I was at the Exit point of the Snake Pit. I have "quite" a few pics and will have them online in a day or two.

This year (and the previous year), if a club asked for a designated area, the organizers accommodated. I think it would be as easy as asking when the word goes out next year, whoever might do it.

I spoke with one of the organizers at the plant tour about getting some exposure via the board, and he was interested. I plan on chatting with him this week.
The karting event was a lot of fun, I think we'll plan for that again on Thursday night next year.

Finally got the pics uploaded... there are about 280 (had taken over 800, but most turned out crappy due to my photography skils 
)
Most of the Alley pics got messed up because of my trying to take the sun as a background... Doh!
The only pics at the track were either during staging or on the way there... No cameras once inside the facility.
