Well, that may have been because three of us were there by 6:10 am. Funny that the Corvette and Shelby convertible moved after 7:00 am; lost souls I guess. The black GT-R guy didn't know where his group was either.

No reason not to make C&C from 7:00 am to 9:00 am. The place was almost full by 6:45 am!

Mooch overheard two guys saying that new management was taking over Vintage Park, and there may be no more C&C there. :ugh2:

We will have to wait and see if anything occurs.
I think with Vintage Park the people who run coffee & cars did a lot of work to make sure we could be here for the long haul.

Great to see everyone, even if it was soooo early. Will post a thread up of pictures we all took from the little photoshoot after coffee & cars.

New management already took over Vintage Park. I'm the GM of 1252 @ Vintage. I dont know why they would put an end to C&C....... It brings in buisness and potential clients. Not to mention the attraction itself. Who doesnt want to see these cars!?

Robert_K 06-28-2012 10:03 PM

You guys interested in a dyno day?

virtuosoondis 06-28-2012 10:16 PM

Peppers 06-29-2012 07:18 PM

Hey guys, as a few of you know I was involved in an accident with my Z on Monday this week. I ran over a jacked up truck's trailer hitch as it was unavoidable on 45 N and at 75mph it did some damage. My rear crossmember/stabalizar bar was destroyed along with my Fast Intentions midpipes as they were both shredded and I'm trying to find some local replacements if anyone has a pair Non-res, 12" or 18" I'm willing to buy these and maybe we can work out a deal. If anyone knows anyone selling a pair please shoot me a message here on the forums or call/text me @ 832.285.4994. Until I can get some replacements my baby gets to sit at Baker Nissan! :) At least shes in good hands! Haha!

virtuosoondis 06-29-2012 08:30 PM

Damm peppers all that matters is your safe first thing man.sorry to hear.ill let you know

virtuosoondis 06-29-2012 08:33 PM

Ron 06-29-2012 08:35 PM

Sorry to hear peppers, I remember seeing some on the FS section.

Edit: here's one, I asked to see if they are still available.

I intend to. Where do we wanna meet?

theDreamer 07-06-2012 12:50 PM

The Z park in front of Salata Vintage Park, which is directly across from the Starbucks.
Some of us will arrive at 6:30-6:45 to get spots but to be fair we cannot hold spots for very long. C&C fills up quickly so get there early if you want a good spot.

FLYZ 07-06-2012 01:13 PM

Perfect. I met the guys out there last month, but I just wasn't sure if they met in the same spot every time, and when. I will see you guys then.

Thanks!

keep your windows rolled down when you get there. Or pull a fuse for the windows so they dont roll up, you dont need windows to pass a state inspection!
