How many people from here are expected to attend this function from this forum I should say? I might head on out depending on when I get in tonight.

jennyt71 · 06-01-2012, 10:31 PM

Take & post pics please.

I'll catch y'all next C&C. Also don't forget TWCC on Sunday. It's a little later. Meeting at 830a at the AMF bowling alley so we can all park together. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1338604310.750616.jpg

It was a pleasure meeting you all today and seeing some beautiful Z's. Got many ideas and things I might want to do. How many of you are running wheel spacers and are they Type 1 or 2? What size are you running if you have them?

It's not the end of the world if we end up parking together in a different spot. Since there are now "non-believers"; i.e. that rogue Mustang and Camaro among our ranks, maybe it's time to find a different spot?

After this past event I think our spot is fine, people are starting to learn the Z's park there. Its ok if the GTR's dont want to be seen with their little brother :/ I do have a feeling that this event will change from 7-9 because of the summer heat though.

It was great to see a new face. Sorry, I didn't get more time to chat.

For your car with the Sport Rays, I'd go with 15mm front/20mm rear stud replacement spacers. I ordered my H&R spacers from Stillen, and had them installed at Baker Tuning.

When I swapped to Nismo rims, I had to swap to 10mm in the rear.

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.

theDreamer · 06-04-2012, 02:24 PM

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.

Wilbe · 06-07-2012, 08:25 PM

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, 11:03 PM

You guys interested in a dyno day?

virtuosoondis · 06-28-2012, 11:16 PM

Guaranteed Ron will be.lol

Ron · 06-28-2012, 11:31 PM
