Cruising meets at M42 J4 Tescos car park
Discussion
Our local free sheet seems a tad vexed at a semi regular (Sat & Sun) nocturnal car meet on the Tesco car park.
Much wailing and gnashing of teeth about noise, screaming tyres and "some one will be killed"
Anyone ever been to this?
I only live a few miles away so I might drop in one evening for a nose.

I've been waiting to see if someone would post about this. The d
heads that go to this need a slap - I am one of those (along with the other couple of thousand people in the area) that are bothered by this. The noise from these meets can be heard in our bedrooms at night - we hear cars thrashing down the Stratford Road and generally making a helluva lot of noise - and we are the fortunate ones that live 1 mile away!
Someone took a photo a week ago of over 100 hundred cars queuing on the Stratford road at night waiting to pull into the car park!
The Stratford Road is being used as a race track - it is as annoying as it is sad, as none of these individuals would lack the skills to safely get their cars around a race track. I live in the area but do I go to these cruises?! No - I take my car to the track or go to Pistonhead meets, not compare c**ks in the car park.
The standard of driving is bad; cars racing down the dual carriageway, late braking and cutting up locals - hence the 'someone will be killed' comments. Every couple of weeks one of their cars will end up in the roundabout.
The other problem is that it gives us all a bad name - chances are some people in my area will probably think that I go to this because I've got a sporty car sat in my garage. Almost makes you feel ashamed at times.
The Police, local media, Tesco, Notcutts and the locals are now all involved in this so do yourself a favour and stay clear.
fking idiots.

I live about 4 miles away, so I hadn't got a clue that it was on the scale of the Hams Hall madness.
My interest in Barried tat, smoking tyres, baseball caps and massive stereos is very limited. I will give it a miss.
