i hated my 2.5 years in Arizona, but on the upside, there are alot of long barren roads like that if you head North out of Phoenix on I-17 for a few miles I found a couple of them. One out by Deer Valley Airport and then New River Road where alot of the street races used to take place (don't know if they still do cuz just before i left, i heard there was a huge raid) Where did you take these at?

Friday nights at 35th Ave and Northern there is a large gathering of cars in the Goodwill Parking lot. I've seen alot of nice classics in that group, and all the ricers got ostricised to the far corner

Also 35th Ave and Union Hills at the Sonic used to be a hotspot as well if you wanted to laugh at rice, but there were a few Mustangs and even an old Mini that usually showed up.

oh, every 2nd wednsday at scottsdale nissan the Desert Z Association meets. i think it starts at 7pm. Might a good place to stir up some new buisiness

I guess the other nice thing about AZ is the year round sun that invites all the muscle cars out to play

*scratches head trying to remember where apache trail was*

sounds familiar but i just can't rememeber where it is. other than diving up to Globe/Miami, the furthest i went was to Manzanita Raceway where one of the instructors was racing the dirt track.

did end up in Sedona once when my parents came to visit...but that was more for them.

Playboy rated Lake Havasu as one of the top 3 places for a 3some to occur from some of the stories i've heard about that place, i can believe it.

But if you want a cheaper thrill, go down to Mill Ave in Tempe on a Friday or Saturday night about 9:00 (just don't drive up and down it, you'll get pulled over for cruising)
