   Yeah, it was quite an event that you'd just have to BE THERE, to appreciate.

  This club covers Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Arkansas and is all about the Modern Mopars.

  There were 30 cars that turned out for this. There were 2 Calibers, 3 Chrysler 300s (2 were SRT8s), there was 1 Chrysler Crossfire, there were 3 Magnums, there were about 8 or so Challengers and the rest were Chargers (a few SXTs, some R/Ts, several Daytonas and a few Super Bees (SRT8s). We all met in Fort Smith Arkansas and traveled down hwy71S to Mena Arkansas, drove on rhe Talimena Drine (Trail of Tears), stopped over just south of Mcalester Oklahoma. had a fantastic Italian meal and then went our separate ways. Hard to imagine a string of those 30 Mopars coming down the roads, in a continuous line, with out seeing them.  ;)

  I'll post pictures later tomorrow.

     Mine is the first one leaving in this one, but I didn't get on it as much as the others did, at that time.

     Thanks Scunny, sure did enjoy myself yesterday! Still trying to wipe the Grin off of my face! :o

     Not only did we log some pretty good miles, we saw some great sights and got the folks in the area to stand back and pay attention as 30 of our Mopars rolled down the highways, through towns and across some pretty winding roads through the mountains.
Even had a State Police car with us for a bit (one of the members who worked that area and was having to work that day. Here's a shot of him behind this Yellow Super Bee Charger.

       


        Looks lie he's fixing to pull him over, huh?  ;D Not really though, like I said, he's one of our members.  ;)

Some really nice sounding cars.

My soccer coach used to have a Coronet? SuperBee w I believe
a 440CI and a 6 pac etc etc. A very fast car he used for less than a year.

     Yeah, some of them are REALLY even MORE sharp sounding than the GOOD sounding ones! There are a few who have gone into the engines, suspension and such. Like I know that there are 2 (in the ChargerZ Forum and 1 in OUR group) that have Superchargers (looking at around $5K for THAT, w/o labor!) on them.

    He only had the Super Bee for 1yr? That sure stinks! I'd HATE to have to give up one of those (unless it was absolutely necessary). Here's a shot of one of the members that we are REALLY proud to have in our group.

      

      He had to "work" that day, but was able to spend some time (and cruised a little) with us.  ;)

  This was taken while at a stop in the mountains of Queen Wilimena State Park

   

  Here's a shot w/o the cars

   

    In this shot, the Orange Daytona at the right side of the picture, belongs to a gal I know ( and her husband drives a Chrysler 300 SRT8 ) and right in front of her car is mine (the Silver one w/ the spoiler). Great bunch of Folks AND cars.

 Another shot to give an idea of just how many cars there were on this cruise. I know I said there were 30, but to hear that and yet to actually SEE how many were there, gives a whole different feeling.

     


   Nice ride, don't ya think? Kinda got the "Old Style T/A" look going.

   

     Here is 1 of the 3 Magnums that were there.

   

    This Challenger is gonna get a supercharger next Spring

   

    Touching base with "The Man"!  :D ;)

   

    Another Pretty sharp Challenger.
