[edit] Why

I created this page because it was very hard to explain "cruising" to my French collegues and I couldn't find a good description on the web.

[edit] Ideas

There should be a history section that explains when cruising became popular and how it has changed.

It would be good to link to a couple of good testimonials that show how cruising is really a tradition/ritual in many places.


Boy racing is not just a rebelious thing for teens to do people think it is. They are a group of young boys who are friens that all have one thing in commen and that is thier love of cars. I personally know the boyracers of masterton. They are all very close to each other and they gather at carparks such as shell, printcraft, the duckies and mcdonalds to catch up with each other. They are awsome people with awsome cars. They give a sense of belonging to people. I could almost describe boyracers as magical. Most of the boyracers here in masterton work as car people of in the vechile trade sp they do know what they are talking about. Alot of the boys have left scvhool earlier then most. The partys in masterton actually consist mostly of boyracers. I love those guys the're my boys. Peace out.. Brooooooooooooommmmmmmm.... Kylie xo

I think its good that wikipedia can explain this to people who wonder about the amount of old cars out of nowhere. This is a periodic happening and cultural thing, i think it deserves its place in this media. Correct definition is cruising (driving) or (city culture). Thats what it is. thanks. jp

  • Support move to cruising (driving). Cruising (automobile) is a poor choice because cruising also applies to motorcycles. --Serge 23:59, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unenc

This article really... really... really sucks hard. I would have suggested a rewrite but it's just too far gone, I don't want to touch it with a 10 foot pole. --frothT C 07:42, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes its a bad article in a lot of ways, agree with you there, needs work I am not willing to do either. I do hope someone does though as it is a topic that warrents a good article. Russeasby 03:44, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
