Default Popping my Kate's Cars & Coffee cherry

Haven't been to C&C in Great Falls before. If anyone is planning on attending, look me up -- I'll be driving my red 951 with black/polished Fuchs.

My understanding is that one must get there early.

A few weeks ago, Eddy and I went to Katie's. We were there around 6:30 and parking was tough THEN. so, yes, get there early. Party begins to break up around 8.

The scheduling is intentional to some extent. Keeps it to dedicated car people, instead of everyone who's put a coffee can exhaust on their Civic.

Well, I suppose I'm not a dedicated car person then...didn't end up making it on Saturday.

I don't typically like sleeping in on the weekends, but when out late the night before, 6:30 is a bit ridiculous...

Don't worry, Collin, I must hate cars, too. Sleep seems to be more important than looking at other people's cars; however, it is not more important than driving my car, esp. on the race track.

Ha -- yeah, let's just say that wasn't one of the smartest decisions I've made. Other than that SNAFU I had a great time with you guys. Don't hold it against me...
