Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday: Black College Reunion Edition

By LongRoofian Mar 30, 2011

While Hooniverse Last Call seems to be coming along earlier and earlier every day, this olelongrooffan thought I would go ahead and publish this post anyway. (Honestly, I thought curfew was 9:30 EST, Dad)

Seriously, down here in Daytona Beach, Florida, in the early part of winter and spring we have Speedweeks, the Rolex24, the Daytona 500, Bike Week, Spring Fling, Spring Break and, honest to God, Black College Reunion week. All of which seem to bring out almost every extreme of each stereotype.
Just thought my fellow Hoons would like to know.

No biography of the LongRoofian would be complete without [edited for length and adherence to subject matter] and your continued enjoyment of these ramblings is certainly welcome.

  1. Bizarre as it may sound, I am strangely fascinated by these cars. They are donked to shit, and have vinyl decals for all kinds of snack foods. I just cannot get enough. I saw one today, an Impala for Cheetoes. Amazing!

    1. They are strangely fascinating.
      (I attempted to repost the collection I uploaded here, but copy-pasting the code doesn't seem to work.)

  2. I guess the best I can say is that someone appreciated the car, and made it out to be what they wanted.
    Personally, I think it's horrible, but, well, as I said, they like cars, and took the time to make it something special to them.
    To each their own.

    1. If you mean the " Black College Reunion " that's because this is what the event is called if you read the whole post

  3. theres a mid 90's impala for sale here locally sitting on something like 28 inch rims
    painted bright yellow with the arm and hammer logo on the doors.
    everytime i see it…i wonder if it smells all fresh inside.
    it ain't always snacks g….uummm…or is it dog?

  4. If you want to "donk" your car, I'm ok with that. I don't like the looks of them but to each their own. But PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE upgrade the brakes. You've doubled your rolling mass at each corner. It takes a metric shit ton of stopping power to slow that beast down.

    1. It's less about rolling mass and more about leverage. Those big wheels exert much more torque on the poor brakes than the stockers would.

      1. Either way, they suck at stopping now, and you know none of them get a brake upgrade. At least, I've never seen anything through 24"s on a sedan but the rusty little stock discs/drums in there. Not cool, dudes! You just might kill somebody on the freeway

  5. In 15 years, every serious car collection will have a Donk, Box, or Bubble. Mine will have all three.

  6. I saw a roadmaster wagon with the woodgrain sides rolling on 24's and they had woodgrained the faces of the wheels too. Had I been drinking I would have done a spit take.
