[Fubar]

Thanks for the reminder. I'll be there.

[DevJ]

Are you bringing your Ford GT? I've never seen one in person

[Fubar]

Maybe, I am having a few things done to it this week. I expect to have it back early in the week but you never know how these things go.

I bet someone will bring one too the C&C event.

[Silentrun]

Just hope my car will be ready by the weekend...parts left JFK last Thursday via TNT. Maybe they will showup by mid week.

[RaceMX-M3]

I'll bring my new Mercedes if it's ready by the weekend. :)

[TTZip]

Sorry guys I am out for this months C&C meet due to the Saturday drive. I will make to attend the one next month.

I am on the same drive, you can make it out for 1/2 hour or so then split...that is my plan.

[TTZip]

I may actually just do that then.

I understand there may be 60+ cars on that drive - is that manageable or even fun:questionmark:

Get stuck between some amateurs and you'll wear out nothing but brakes and your spirit. :thumpdown:

[Silentrun]

The run is broken into three groups with three leads. I have been on a Sunday run with some of these people and the group I am running with (if my car is ready) is a fast pace without three digits at every available strip of asphault. The other two groups are the "drive it like you stole it" group and even on the test drive yesterday a Viper spun...not the group for me.

Who sponsors this:questionmark: yeah, I heard about the spinout yesterday. Doesn't sound safe for the regular public sharing the road. :dontknow:

Sponsors?!?!?! The Mexican consulate maybe? :) One of the gentleman is long estabilished at setting up Sunday Runs and others, many others, are now following his lead. You can see him start the run on 6speed (SAFE4NOW) and the group I am running in is his group.

[TTZip]

Yep I am running in that same group as well with Safe4now. You truly are safe if you stay in the normal Fast group as opposed to Faster or Fastest.

[imaj]

You are as safe as you feel at testing the limits of your car.

[BLKFIN]

I may actually just do that then.

I think you should....I think your wife will like this crowd better than the one we saw on Saturday evening!!!

All right now - go public - where were you Saturday evening? :confused:

We went to the "Cupcake Meet" in Richardson. I know it sounds odd, but the lady that puts it on sells cupcakes while you are there. It was mostly civics with a Lambo or two sprinkled in. Some of the attendees looked like the were there to car jack you!

Cupcakes?! :thumbsup2: Sign me up! Please let us know about the next "cupcake run." Yum!!!

[TTZip]

No you really don't want to go there. Tons and tons of riced out cars with a few nice cars thrown into the mix. I will never go again.

Here is a thread they have going with pics of what was there. They kept taking pics of the more or less good cars each time someone posted photos. Have a look for yourself.

http://ccmeets.com/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=807

You will really get a kick out of the models that were there. Errm... Wait I meant "models"... :)

Either way not for me and I will be staying out of that meet from now on.

Very nice! Congrats! What to go to Mexico on Sat? :D I think I would stand a chance against this one...not your M.

[Qship5]

Decided to get the car ready for C&C today. I recently purchased the new PC 7424XP buffer and decided to break it out. I washed the car, dried it off and the used the clay bar on it. Once nice and clean, I used a orange pad on the PC with some Menzerna Super Intensive Polish on a few areas that needed some minor paint correction and then proceeded to hit the whole car with Menzerna Super Finish using a white pad on the PC. Once I was satisfied that the paint was pristine I gave it a nice coat of Pinnacle Souveran carnuba wax. The beast looks like a pool of black water you can dive into now.:D

[AMG]

Hopefully if I stay in tonight I can make it out by 7

[JDrobycki]

Wow, my first time to C&C. I had a good time.

Here are some pics I took:

Got to see a Saleen S7 and Skyline in person for the first time.
Also, met Ron from Limey Racing who told me about new more affordable GT-R parts they will be coming out with soon.

He claims 220hp, but with 2 NOS bottles I bet it's more.

That looks awesome... sadly I was still up when that started and in no state to drive... mornings are evil.

[m topls]

What a great turnout at C&C today! 278 cars attended today. Wow!

[AMG]

I need a better alarm clock, I woke up at 6 and fell right back asleep.. I kept telling my buddy with the M to come over my house since its just down the block from Classic, but he can't wake up that early either !

[RaceMX-M3]

Great meet today at Classic, I was only there briefly - BMW's high beam assist ain't my friend. :confused:

Raven,

Killer pics, thx for posting.

[Mack211]

Was a great turn out. I dropped by for about 30min before heading out to the 6speed Saturday drive. I will definitely be going next month. Wish I could have seen the S7 before I left.

The S7 was sweet! Nice pics Raven. I thought the Ferrari California looked good too!

[XR4Tim]

Everything looked good. It's nice to see so many different car people in the same place.

Damn I should have gotten up to go to that. It seems like that show keeps getting better every time.

Good pics!

I must say that my heart was drawn to the 1929 Packard. I talked with the owner. He got it from an estate up north. The car is 100% original and un-restored! How sweet is that!

Definitely a nice car. I'd love to come across something like that by chance.

A few pics from a Cars and Coffee meet in Oregon.
Looks like they had an HPF BMW show up. . .a bit more flashy than RaceMX-M3.
