Reminder for Sunday May 4th.

It's that time again...weather should be great on Sunday! Unfortunately, there is a conflict with the racing events at Monterey on May 3rd and 4th.

Here's an added bonus from the Museum...bring your classic to the Sonoma Raceway on Saturday, May 17th.
Package includes race tickets and track time for the first 40 registrants.

I'd be at Sonoma except I've a previous commitment.

Unfortunately no digital, as it was sold in 1980; but there are usually one or two Tigers "prowling around" at Cars and Coffee.
See everybody tomorrow!

Was really impressed with this show yesterday. Think my favorite car was a 1st gen celica with an S2000 swap. Or the Lancia. Lots of great cars...sure beat the C&C we use to have in Raleigh....may even have been bigger then Irvine.

The blown bentley was gorgeous!

Don, you now have to get there "earlier". I saw that your car got bumped from your normal spot.

Sunday June 1st coming up!

It should be another great weather day to take the "beast" out for a drive and show. There should be lots to see this Sunday.

I've been asked to remind everyone to try and refrain from "speed displays" when entering or leaving the event, as there have been recent comments from the Danville Police regarding the occasional "enthusiastic" driver .

And don't forget the Museum is having their 8th Annual Father's Day Car Show on June 15th. http://www.blackhawkmuseum.org/

FYI, the Museum's upper gallery is currently closed and undergoing a "makeover"...


Here are some additional photos from the May assemblage (count was 601 vehicles):

Sunday July 6th

Weather should be nice this coming Sunday morning...no excuse for not taking a drive and showing off your special vehicle.

Thanks to all for the great turnout in June-just over 400 vehicles again!

Here's a few June 1st photos...

Going to have to check one of these meets out, especially since I'm only 10 minutes away from there.
