The photo of the Lotus badge in the rain is a keeper.

Yep, that picture is my wallpaper now - thanks, Mike!

So far this year, the weather has not cooperated. Some light rain this morning meant we had another light turnout, but we still had our hard-core attendees. Even though the 'interesting car' count was lower than normal, quite a few car people brought their daily drivers.

When spring finally arrives, I expect the crowds we saw most of last year will return.

Just a hint...try filming with the window cracked about an inch and keep the camera inside the car. You'll get the sound of the exhaust, but less wind noise.

Maybe it was just me, but I kept thinking he was going to hit his left rims on the curb. It made me uncomfortable to watch it thinking it was a horror clip!

Hey guys! I'm back! I know this video is slightly off the topic of Cars & Coffee GF,VA but hear me out. I experimented down in Daytona Beach with my Toyota 4Runner, my HD Camera and my tripod and this was my masterpiece result. Now I've gotten great feedback on this video and next C&C, I'll do one from my home neighborhood (in Gaithersburg, MD) to C&C. BUT I WANT TO TAKE IT A BIT FURTHER THAN THAT. It may sound a little crazy but I really want to get some exotics in a time lapse too, so if anyone plans on driving somewhere after the next C&C (like DC or some other event) and is willing to essentially let me stalk you from C&C to wherever, that would be great for my channel (and essentially C&C GF,VA as a whole considering me and RealMCR12 are heavy YouTube promoters for GF C&C) LOL if anyone's interested in promoting their car, hit me up and I'll happily film! Hope to see you guys this Saturday

I also just posted the midnight run on the new NOVA SCC facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Northe...40842562654424

As fellow 6speeders, my guess is most of you already know what's going on the area, but feel free to join the meetup group as well: http://www.meetup.com/novascc/

[ok....back to OP] ...just a reminder about Great Falls this Sat....please also remember that the exotic car show in PA is taking place that day. If you would like to join the cruise up, please PM or post in that thread.

About the PA show, where's that going to be? (do you have a link?) That would be great to go to it sounds like. It's suppose to be a gorgeous day on Saturday! And I'm trying to get as much exotic action as possible
