The second installment of Hunt Valley Cars & Coffee was another tremendous success! Thank you to everyone in attendance and to everyone spreading the word. The key to our past and future successes is based on each and every one of you.

Earlier, Tonk linked a few of the many fabulous photos of our diverse and growing community. I had a smile cramp from the cumulative effect of having so many pleasant individual experiences. So many great people, so many great cars, so much great coffee.

If you have seen the unfortunate news regarding Best Buy’s financial struggles, you may know that the Best Buy in Hunt Valley will be closing on May 12. Since we gather in the Best Buy parking lot, you may wonder if this development has an impact on Hunt Valley Cars & Coffee. The agreement that allows our group to gather at the Best Buy location was made with Greenberg Gibbons Commercial, the management company for Hunt Valley Towne Centre. The contract is in place through 2012 and the GGC staff has been very supportive. As for the impact, our parking area will continue to slightly change shape over time. Through the summer months, additional parking should be available. I’ll forge a relationship with the replacement business as early as possible. Whomever takes over the Best Buy space, rest assured, our future will be strong.

The weather for the morning of April 21 looks dry with seasonal temperatures so if the forecast holds to form, we’ll be back this Saturday! When we can have you back, be it weekly, every other week or monthly, we sincerely look forward to it. Its only getting better. Take a stake and spread the word! If you are a Facebook user, check the following link and request an invite … https://www.facebook.com/groups/Hunt...y.Cars.Coffee/ . If you choose to generally resist Facebook, all information on the following link is viewable without membership ... https://www.facebook.com/events/240314176055770/ .

See you on Saturday!

Sincerely,

Rich "Will" Williams

This suggests that it will be cancelled during times of inclimate weather. I suggest just letting it stay scheduled for every weekend, regardless of what the weather holds. This eliminates the risk of confusion for attendees. If it's rainy, most people will hold off anyway, but you never know...some people may choose to come anyway and just sit inside Panera Bread sipping on coffee and talking about cars.


P.S. I'll be there this weekend.

It is an impressive machine to see on the road. As we were going along side there was a group of cars behind us taking pics/video and no-one was passing us.

If I knew you were from York I would have met up with you on the drive down. I had the red Supra. Your car looked great.
If I would have saw that adventador on the way back I would have had to play around with him a little . That is a rare car to see on the road!

On the meteorological front, if there's a torrential downpour or steady rain, a high percentage will not show for an outdoor, uncovered event. Of course, there's no resistance to congregating indoors at Caribou, Chick-fil-A or Panera. Its a common sense position to not expect the usual outdoor experience. Regardless, its a personal decision to congregate at the Towne Centre in any weather. It'll be there.

Very nice tres. I heard about the swap meet today while at work. We were talking about the fact that it had to go rain or shine and the fact that its parts galore. That's definitely an excellent transition.

My advice would be to install the 5" intercooler. The Supra needs to be a regular!

So I just read on another forum that this Ferrari is a 1966 275 GTS, worth between $750,000 and $800,000. I did a little looking around online and found that there were only 200 made for the US market. That's a pretty rare sight to see!
