Copied from there Myspace bulletin....

The first official Superfly Sunday starts May 10th!! That's only 27 days away folks!!

We're going back to our ASR Motorsports roots by making Superfly a mostly Sport Compact-only Weekly Cruise-in. What's that mean to you? Well it means Trucks (lifted and/or lowered) and Motorcycles (of any kind) need not apply. The rauckus caused by these groups and the headaches they brought forth are no longer worth it. So, if you find yourself behind the wheel of a Honda, Mustang, Maserati, Toyota, Porsche, Nissan, DSM, etc (shall I go on?), then this show is for you. This is your Superfly Sunday.


Superfly Sunday will once again be graciously hosted by the Spaghetti Warehouse in Downtown Akron. Those with trucks and/or motorcycles will be asked to leave the show, and removed with our backing of the Akron Police Department if necessary. We look forward to Summer and another great Superfly season! If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at augie@330tuning.com

funny you should say that heres an email from one... to one of the 330tuning guys



here's an email i received recently...

"just a question. why cant mini trucks come to superfly what did we do wrong? when these little hondas, nissans, mustangs, acuras..ect come burn out and street race down the road. what do we do we go there lay out the truck and chill by our truck and walk around and look at everyones cars..
the street bikes and lil durtbikes ok i see why they would not be able to come they ride at 100mph around other cars ok we get that but mini trucks and lifted truck give me a break...
get back to me if u can
thanks"

and here's my response...

"Hey, thanks for the email.


It wasn't that we wanted to ban or disallow anyone from coming to the show. But when the club's committee met and discussed the upcoming season, we talked alot about problems from last year and how we can fix them. We decided to make Superfly Sunday a car cruise-in like it once was; for a couple different reasons.
One, we'd be going back to our
roots, making the show what is once was, a 50-100 car weekly show that brought out alot of quality cars. And two, in turn by doing that we would alleviate alot of the problems we encountered last summer and the 4 before it (when we started allowing the groups you reference to attend).
But listen, we aren't saying that any one group and everyone in it was a
troublemaker, but the bad seeds outweighed the good by far. You can't blame the messenger on this one. By reducing the number of attendees to the show, we regain the ability to police it and enforce the rules that were always supposed to be adhered to. Do you know how hard it is to have to literally yell at 5-10 people every sunday?, it kills your weekend..trust me!

Riding wheelies on bikes next to show cars, dragging frames through a parking lot (that I'm personally responsible for btw), and stereo sound competitions are not what Superfly is about. It never has been, and we've set these new rules to make sure that it never will be. 330Tuning, formerly ASR Motorsports, has been around since 1999, thats 10 years. No other (newer cars) Car Club can say that. Not to sound conceited, but we'd like to think that we know what we're doing.


Point is, you make rules and not everyone is going to like them. In this case it's you and your fellow truckers. And honestly I can understand that. Maybe you can start a weekly truck cruise-in somewhere? I'd be more than willing to lend a hand or give suggestions on where/when, etc.


If you have any other questions, let me know.


Thanks man!"

Augie's a good guy, he's just tryin to make sure that the event doesn't go down the shitter & that he doesn't get in trouble for someone destrying the parking lot that he's responcible for.

If it were you, you'd be tryin to cover your ass too.

As he stated, he's not sayin that every mini-trucker or sport bike guy acts like an idiot, just that things will be easier to handle without additonal groups in the lot.

I support their decision here.

i can agree with him also. perfect example, look at boardman... u let the douchbags come out and play -> they ruin everything for everyone.

nothing wrong with wanting it to stay a clean show with only respectable vehicles.

on the other hand, i'm pumped, cant wait to start goin again. I bet the first meet will be crazy packed with all the good shit!

What kills events like this the most I feel is all the littering. This goes for Boardman and all places. People are fucking slobs period, when you get a bunch of them together they create trash. Usually that is no problem when they clean after themselves and throw their shit away. However when a few to a decent amount of these slobs leave their garbage all over the parking lot this can create problems with the owner of the parking lot...

Also 1 out of every person also feels the need to show boat while leaving, making noise, marks, burning out and a potential danger to anyone around the car "getting sideways". One little fuck up ie: a car wreck due to someone being a retard in front of the SWH would likely shut this event down.

Just my opinion on the matter.

I'm sure the rules bummed out the bike guys more than trucks; but I agree that it's just extra headache in most cases that just pollute the original idea. I've never attended this, but I can't wait to this year! Should be a blast!
