Its an Arizona All Gens event and all Camaro's are welcome but Arizona does not have a large presence here on Camaro5. If you really want to get involved in the Camaro movement in Arizona you should look into joining the Arizona All Gens Camaro Club, its free, there's no meetings or dues, just fun get togethers. Everything is posted on their club forum. Over 700 members strong and growing. A great bunch of people.

You should come out for Camaro night at the Pavilion's on the 2nd Sat of every month and meet some of the group.

I did a project up there last year. Drove up at 6 am and back down by 10 am.
One of the most fun I ever had.
I will be checking out the Flagstaff run.

looks like a lot of fun to cruise with everyone up there, but I am a bit of a lone wolf and really enjoy cruising Mt. Lemon at my own pace and not being stuck behind a line of traffic...imo

Thanks Cy for another awesome cruise up the mountain! I try to make the trip up every few months just for a ride with the top down (and to get a piece of pie).
I use to compete in the "Outlaw Races" up Mt Lemmon in the mid-80's with an 83 IMSA-Spec Celica Turbo. There were no shoulders back then, and very few guard rails. The Air Guard use to close the road for a few days once a year to airlift the wrecked auto carcasses out of the canyons with their helicopters...

The Tucson Club will be cruising up to Sedona/Flagstaff 6 - 9 Sep. We'll see you guys at the Rt 66 festivities!

Maybe I need to adjust my screen or something, but it seems like there's not nearly enough green in these photos.

I'm up in Flagstaff- if you all are here for the Rte 66 Car show we may just have to come by and check it out!! Hibernating because of the rain, but it sounds like a good reason for us to stretch the wings on our Camaro

Yeah 23 of us made the trip up to Flagstaff this weekend for the Route 66 car show. Not sure if you attended. Sorry we missed you though. The rain was super crazy.
