    Meetup Before Caffeine and Carburetors: May 22, 2016

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hey all,

    Time for round 2! There's an excellent car show called Caffeine and Carburetors (http://caffeineandcarburetors.com/) scheduled for May 22nd (weather permitting) in New Canaan, CT, and as we've done previously I'm coordinating a quick meetup shortly beforehand so that we can check out each others' cars and ride in together.

    The show is early Sunday morning, its pretty informal but most of the cars are there around 8 and it ends around 11. We'll have a pre-meet at 7am, and the specifics are below. It sounds like it's too early to be worthwhile, but the cars are insane and the environment is great.

    Before anyone complains about the early call time, I'd like to ask a question. Where else will you see a McLaren P1, a Porsche 918, a Ferrari LaFerrari, a Lexus LFA, and a Pagani Huayra, all of which were driven into the event, parked on the street? This was the case last year. There are also usually dozens of 911s, quite a few Audis, and at least 20 assorted other Ferraris along with other random cars from Model Ts to modern and vintage supercars.

    Who can make it?

    The specifics:
    Date: Sunday, May 22nd
    Time: 7am meet, the actual show gets going around 7:30 so we will leave the pre-meet location at 7:30
    Location: Park and Ride lot starred below. The show is in Waveny Park, in New Canaan, CT.


    Pre-meet location is starred in the screenshot below. The lot isn't huge but probably has room for 20 or 30 cars.



    Waveny has a larger show area than downtown, so we will likely all park together in the show. If anyone would prefer not to, there is signed attendee parking as well. Getting to the actual event at 7:40 or so is early enough that there should be ample parking both within the show and for attendees.

    A few photos from past shows, this year and last:

    Hope to see a great turnout at this one, and hopefully we can beat the first one's attendance!

    I'll be there. Looking forward to it- plus we should be able to get good parking in the show if we roll out early enough.

    Still on as of this morning, nothing on their site to indicate otherwise. It looks like one band of rain and then clear (hopefully) so I'm planning on chancing it and hoping for the best! The May show was weird weather last year too and it was still great.

    Glad everyone came out today! I did a horrible job taking pictures today, but a few shots of the group and random cars from the show are below. Unless they throw in a summer show, see everyone at the next C&C in September!

    Was great meeting everyone. We should definitely get a meet going for the Fairfield/Westchester area guys.
