Thanks for sharing the video. Looks like a good turnout and lots of crusing fun.

Here's a couple of pics from C&C this past weekend.

Anyone need a almost new amplifier for some aftermarket front speakers? I have a Polk PA330 for sale on the classifies. Almost new, just trying to upgrade for the subwoofer I have coming. $75 OBO.

Jenny, how are you? I didn't get to talk to any of the Z owners. They have nice cars.

Cars and Coffee is at Vintage Park. It's on the intersection of FM 249 and Louetta. There is a HEB supermarket across the street.

There is one, they are held at the horse & dog race tracks and then another location.
Here is a thread on it for Houston: Houston Area AutoX

Would be great to meet you at the next C&C, just remember to get up early as by by 7AM most of the parking lot is full.

I would say earlier than 6:00 because other people are starting to take our spots. Z's no longer own our normal parking spaces. We need to claim them back! By 6:30 everything is gone and its now over at 9 instead of ten due to the heat.

RMRF is HPDE-like (think Road Racing - a real road course race track, but non-competitive, just track time to learn), and The Driver's Edge is highly recommended for an HPDE-like event around TX. Auto-X is a different thing (cones set up in a parking lot, lower speed and shorter runs, solo for time, more technical I guess). There's a few different groups that do Auto-X around Houston, but the main ones are the one that Dreamer linked earlier and the Porsche/BMW clubs (which do allow other makes!).

Lone Star PCA
BMW CCA

I was parked in the spectator area. I didn't get there early enough to park in the show area. I have a 08 SMB 350Z Touring.
