Here are the updates:
With the coming of the new year I would like to announce the Quaker Steak and Lube Cruise Night on the west side of Madison!! This great, new cruise night will make an excellent addition to our already great line-up of cruises. This one is unique in that it is located in Madison and on Thursday night. Here are some details:Dates:
It will be starting next year on April 26th and going each Thursday from 5-9PM until around Halloween. There won’t really be any designated “WCC Night”, we will be involved with all/most of them.Music:
Great tunes playing the whole night outside of The LubeBring Your Classic & Get:
A 10% discount to everyone that brings a classic, the whole front lot will be blocked off for classics only.Featured Cars:
Wisconsin Collector Car is going to contact local businesses/clubs and work to have featured cars each/most of the weeks. The featured cars will have their own area, with cones/ropes if necessary. If you, your club, or your business are interested in having your car(s) featured at the cruises, please contact us here!Prizes/Awards:
Door prizes are not definite yet but they may be having t-shirts and maybe some “best of the night” awards like best paint or most chrome. We’re going to try and provide some gas cards as door prizes in additionFood:
Of course the restaurant will be open, and they’re putting up a new area called The Garage. It has several garage doors that will be open so you can basically sit outside there at the bar and get food/drinks.More on the Site
Wisconsin Collector Car will be providing a lot of information about the cruise – in the form of a special page on the site, located here:
Quaker Steak & Lube Cruise Night
as well as email newsletters, fourm announcements, and a special “Go or No” feature where we let you know that night if the weather is going to affect the cruiseOld Post:

I like the idea of cruise nights on the west side. East towne is quite the hike from mt. horeb on a weekly basis.
Does anyone know got the notion to start this, was it QSL’s idea? I know they’ve had car events there before.

QSL decided to change their cruise nights to Thursday due to the huge success of Wednesday Bike Night and because of all the car shows on Saturday and Sunday (the previous day). I’ve been working with QSL to add some features to the cruise (ie the featured cars each week) and get the word out about it.
Moparkid, what car(s) do you have now?

My 3 boys are very excited about the QSL cruise nights. We live up in Sauk City and it’s a straight shot down Hwy 12 to get to the QSL. Thanks for setting this up Garibaldi!
My thanks, also, to Garibaldi and GTO Man! thumbsup.gif
I have been excited about this one for several months, now. I am taking that first Thursday off from work to spruce up the car and get it ready to cruise out to Middleton! This will hopefully turn out to be an excellent weekend as Spring Jefferson will that following Saturday and Sunday. Anyone seen the long term weather forecast yet? We are certainly deserving of some good weather, for a change.

I have also been counting down to this day for quite some time, it will be great for the season to start again and its nice to have a lot of options during the week as well as weekends. The weather forecasts we have here only go out until 10 days from now, so I guess we’ll have to wait until the 16th for a prediction. If I had to guess though I would say sunny skies and 70s! sunny.gif
The next 10 days don’t look promising at all! Where did spring go?

Shrimp and classics eh? Sounds interesting! w00t.gif
I was in the vicinity of QSL this past Thursday night (my daughter had a high school soccer game at Middleton HS) and I went out of my way to cruise past the QSL and the parking lot was full to overflowing with nothing special going on! I guess “shrimp night” really packs em in. I hope that next Thursday night, QSL makes room for the antique/collector/muscle car/special interest car crowd that will coming rolling in (weather permitting).

I went out there for lunch today and it was packed as well! Lots of cars and quite a few bikes too. There was a Galaxy 500 outside and a few other “new” classics, mustangs and corvettes. The Malibu is up on the lift now inside. I’m getting excited for this week!
Announcement:
The April 26th, 2007 cruise night at Quaker Steak and Lube is cancelled due to rainy weather! crybaby2.gifNo cruise tonight? Dang!

For the next few Thursday’s I’ll be tied up with my son’s soccer practice and may miss the cruise nights. But I’ll be there in spirit.
