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!

NEW! The Fredericksburg Circuit Cruise will be held every 1st Saturday of the month beginning at 4 pm at Bruster's in Stafford VA. Stops included on the circuit are Sonic on Rt 3, Fosters Grille in Masaponax and finally A1 Speed Shop. The circuit cruise will initially be held the 1st Saturday of every month and may evolve to the first and third Saturday. Capital Cruisin' had the idea of starting circuit cruises (cruises where people actually drove their cars like in the good old days) in Manassas VA, Fredericksburg VA, Leesburg VA and Frederick MD. We sent out emails to the various clubs to see if anyone had an interest in our idea. Fredericksburg was interested and the rest is history. Capital Cruisin' would like to thank Chuck Shotwell of The Stafford Classics, The Late Night Cruisers Car Club and Ron (who runs the Bruster's Cruise) for helping make this happen! We hope other clubs in the area will follow Fredericksburg's lead and put our idea into action with their own Circuit Cruises!
