Yea there was a meet at tony lukes, didn't last long. Some dumb ass decided to do a burn out in the parking lot and then backed his car into something, the owner asked him to leave and he refused too. Cops got called and everyone had to leave. One kid ruined 60+ peoples night, some drove 3 hours to make it. This meet has been going on for years now without issues, now it looks like it won't happen again.

This is what I read: "Some moron in a Monte Carlo did a burnout and then carelessly backed into a drain pipe and broke it. Then the cops came and we were told to leave. There's more details to the story but it doesn't really matter. "

All it takes is one idiot to ruin something good.

Yeah, started as an LS1Tech meet and just grew and grew. Going down there last time was kind of sketchy, we met up at the i95 rest stop in DE and drove over. There were two Nissan GTR's that came with us and led some State Troopers on a chase.
After that I went about my business on a different route down lol

And this is why I don't go to meets anymore. I'd rather drive around aimlessly than stand around aimlessly.

It sucks, from what I heard this meet has been going strong for 5 years now. Sucks one young kid ****ed it up for everyone else. I like cruising around too but I do enjoy meets as well.

yeah...5 years strong...4 times a year....ruined cause some douche bag cant control himself in a FWD Monte Carlo. couple guys i know where right there as the owner was askin him to leave....they were tellin the kid to just leave and he refused ,"im not going anywhere, im here with my car club" i beleive were his exact words.
couple of my friends were so peeved they wanted to go lookin for the kid..lol. so half the group ended up going to southwest philly and the other half went to the Art museum. i was in the art museum group....we just hung out there for a couple hours and split. the coordinator of the event was there and he's confident that the Cheesesteak runs are all but done thanx to that idiot.

We're almost positive Tony Luke's won't have us there anymore. Five years ago when I called them to ask if we could do this without getting the cops involved they said sure as long as we follow the rules: No burn outs, no street racing in front of the building, no speeding off as we're leaving and no revving the motors. Four times a year for five years we did it without incident. The last two times before this though, small issues were arising. A bunch of people revving their motors two times ago. Then last time someone in a GTO tried to powerslide out of the parking lot and almost went up on the sidewalk and hit people and about 15 people sped off from the parking lot like crazy, some of them sliding a bit. People in our group were yelling at them to stop. Tony Luke's still didn't say anything, but it was only a matter of time before they got shut down because of these people. They got too big. In the beginning it was only about 20 cars. Now there are anywhere from 40-60 depending on the time of year.

its a shame ya know. it only takes 1 or 2 people to ruin something. people just cant control themselves when they get around other people...its like they think they have something to proove or maybe we'll be impressed at their burnout or whatever stupid idiotic thing they try to do. my car, being as loud as it is, i try my hardest to keep the rpms under 2k in areas like that so i dont draw anymore attention to myself than i allready have. its just a shame. im thinking though....Tony Lukes Cheesesteak run in Atlantic City!! lol...that would be a blast.

Unfortunately no repercussions. We yelled at them and told them to leave, but they were already on their way out. No one knew who they were, or at least wouldn't fess up to knowing them.

I know the last time that I went down there, I was running open headers and lots of revving went down after I started my car up... Guilty by indirect cause haha
