Question Seafront cruise nights?

BesideTheSeaside

Youth Team
I've asked quite a few people when the cruise nights are, i get so many different responses. Every saturday, the first saturday in every month etc. I know they do it on some wednsedays, but can anyone confirm the actual days?
 
Normally every saturday but each car club has different days when they will come down. The Alfa Owners club go down on like the 2nd saturday of every month and the Scooby is the 1st saturday etc etc. To find out the exact ones for certain makes you would have to look on their website.

Its gone extremely down hill since I first started doing it used to be a real good laugh. Now its just plagued full of idiots that just try and show of and make pricks of themselves.

The really old days of the cruise night on the seafront are long gone, part of history. When the roundabout by the pierhead was your standard roundabout, where you could throw your rear drive motor round and towards the barriers, with tons of people hoping you would over cook it and throw your ar$e into the barriers. There were no speed ramps either....

Ah the thought of the MK1 Escort, the MK3 Cortina or the Fiat 131 blasting up and down is such a good memory. Real cars, real personalities, not like these jelly mould god forsaken tin boxes of today!!

I don't know about the seafront but I have heard there is one in the gents toilets at priory park most weekdays.

Morning Chaps!

Just a word of warning - don't go cruising along York Road in the early hours or you'll invariably be arrested by the fuzz and then 'battered by their truncheons' back at the station...
