As we've grown larger and more popular (1000s of hits per month!) we have out-grown the limits Geocities puts on its free sites. We will be expanding and improving the site and to do so we were required to change over to a paid status for more bandwidth. If you find our site valuable and would like to see us do more with it and keep it on the air, please help sponsor Capital Cruisin by donating what you feel is appropriate. Any amount will help! We are looking for more sponsors too!
