What do you mean? Out of the half million plus people in the Knoxville metro area, at least 40 of them sit in the old K-Mart parking lot, lol. Yes, I used to live there...Maverick7687 wrote:Damn I go down that road all the time..
Why don't any of the Knox people get out and do anything? haha.
On a serious (and much less depressing) note, if you are up for some driving (around 35 miles East of Knoxville) there is a weekly cruise-in @ Morristown that often nets 500 cars. Also, they also have "Fouth Friday Music Fest and Cruise-In" monthly where they shut down main street in the old part of town for a car show, free rock concert, etc. (parking for cars in the show is kinda limited however).
Even better however is the one they do in Elizabethton where they shut off the downtown area every Saturday evening, have music, vendors, etc. But it would be a pretty big drive from K'town, but would give everyone an excuse to drive the Snake, which is about 15 minutes from downtown E'ton, and you will pass right by Thunder Valley (the drag track seen on Pinks).
Here are some links...a little out of date...but the first that came up on a search:
Morristown Cruise-In
Fouth Friday
Elizabethton Cruise-In
BTW, here are a couple pics I had on my HD, from a previous Cruise-In. Doesn't exactly look like the Clinton Hwy scene, lol.
