But while this is an F-body forum, not everyone here has one, or at least one that runs. We have many members with hold-me-over daily drivers, or some other kind of sports car. A CHARITY cruise for anyone with an awesome ride sponsored by NJFBOA would be nice, and surely draw a lot more participants and donations. But you want to limit this to F-Bodies only, which will not only cut back on your participants, but your donations as well, as I, for one, will not even be able to participate in this. So I think I'll save my donation to Autism Research for an event that I don't have to be excluded from, or donate on my own time. You might get 50 or maybe even 60 Fbodies to participate, but you could have a lot more cool cars if it were less exclusive, and end up with like 200+ participants. I mean, at least allow corvettes or something. I understand the F Body Nats are for F bodies ONLY, which makes sense. But, for a charity case? Come on.
If the issue here is charity, no one is stopping anyone from going to this link https://shop.stjude.org/GiftCatalog/...LKALSAC1000002 or this one http://www.autismspeaks.org/donate/index.php and being charitable.
I think the "Coolness" factor is in it being for F-Bodies only.
Just like the corvette Video, the specialty of the event is for it to be an One-Hundred F-Body cruise, not a "Mustangs, Goats, Honda Civics, Toyota Corollas, and-every-other-car-under-the-sun-And-some-F-Bodies" Cruise (aka just another day on the parkway.)
