Now it's a norm for 300+atw and a diverse demographic from new to 12 year old cars and their ownersThe old timers, those that remain still retain friendships.Lot's have moved on. Nothing special or different anymore ?There are more cars out there but less interest ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all comes down to dollars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to organise a date and time that suits everyone is always going to be hard, and not many people browse this forum as often as they did, fordforums seems to be the go these days.http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/84447-mac-pass-night-run-friday-may-3rd/?hl=mac+pass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
