Monterey Car week 2025

I figured we better get a thread going.

I thought @Mirek is coming up and I know @otoupalik is as well.

My old school buddies aren’t coming like normal and I’m skipping The Quail this year.

I did get my ticket to the Spike Car Radio podcast show with my fav podcast the Smoking Tire And historically Seinfeld had been involved.

We can build off this thread….

Saturday morning I normally go to the C&C a hundred yards from the Concour’s d’Lemons

Then ill head to pebble for that podcast

then I normally go to the Ferrari event (if it’s still on this year I’ll post up a link or location).

Could be fun to grab a 456/550/575 dinner or lunch.

I live less than an hour north so I’ll just drive down and back.

Super car Sunday is always bananas and not worth the insane crowds….

 

It’s been years since my children have gone so i might take them to the races Sunday the 10th at Laguna (kicks off the week)

This general link has lots of great stuff

the Saturday the 16th Ferrari event is at 4pm at the Barnyard Village shopping center (free to view and they have the paid wine event).

Eric, will be there Wed-Sun with wife and son, daughter coming down from S.F. for the weekend. Will do the Tour d' Elegance on Thurs AM and the Sunday Concours "main event" for sure (already have tickets). Son & I plan on spending a lot of time at Laguna Seca for the historics. Concours d'Lemons also on the list. Quail was sold out last time I checked...awfully pricey, anyway. Haven't decided on the Concorso Italiano...was a little underwhelmed last time I was there in 2022. Might attend an auction if there's time, but don't care so much about those so we'll see. There's only so much time and way too much to do/see during car week. Total car guy overload!

 

Hopefully as we get closer and more guys see the thread we can coordinate an “internet friend gathering”!

 

Thread in events section has some info on car week too.

@otoupalik
A quick post to bump this one TTT as well.

Would be neat to meet as many as possible especially @NE550 since he will be there.

 

This is our schedule so far:

Tuesday: Drive PHX to LA
Wednesday: Fuel Run from LA to Monterrey
Thursday: Legends and/Or FOC Concourse
Friday: Werks Reunion and Historic Races
Saturday: Concorso Italiano and exotics on Broadway
Sunday: GuntherWerks at Laguna Seca and drive home

 

we should plan a time one evening to meet at Casa Ferrari (pretty central) and grab a coffee and gelato!

Casa Ferrari | Ferrari San Francisco

Thursday 4pm or 5pm work maybe?

 

Referring to “Casa Ferrari Carmel” located at 70 CA-1 Carmel Highlands, CA 93923 and not Casa Ferrari at Pebble Beach, correct?

 

Correct.
