Guys,

I'll try to be there in between my kids' soccer games.

Thanks,

We had a really great turnout today at the San Marcos Car show. The organizer has a special reserved lot just for the Ferraris and exotics for the monthly show. Pics are below.

Fun day and a nice turnout for our group. I've got the big Ferrari flags and I'll figure out some PVC poles we can use to mount them on the canopy. Although they won't fit in our cars, maybe someone can figure out how to get some folding or plastic chairs. Maybe a sympathetic wife with an SUV (Opps! Not PC). The're stupid cheap to buy or can be rented easily.

 

I've got a set of flags that came with my car as well. The previous owner used to fly them outside his house on the sunday's of F1 races. Forza Ferrari! I can bring them as well. We can pin them to the e-z ups and they'll provide some shade.

 

Hi all,

Just comfirming that I'll bring the flags and poles. We discussed it at Sunday's "JustDriveIt" and agreed we need to find a way to keep the canopy from blowing over onto our cars if there's any wind. Eric suggested we tie it to the building which is a good idea if there's anything there to tie onto. I'll bring some extra rope/line and I have some steel stakes we can use if needed.

See you all there!

There is a tree next to where I had my car parked last time. It would be a good spot for the canopy as well as a good tie down spot. I'll also bring some twine and stuff. We could also place the canopy next to the concrete wall where the Porsche guy had his canopy. There is a dirt area next to it where we could use the stakes.

 

It was a great time at the San Marcos Car Show today. The canopy Tung provided worked great and was some much needed shade. We met alot of nice people. Amazingly enough one guy that was admiring my F355 turned out to be the guy that came up with the Fish Tie idea and first started selling them back in the late 80's / Early 90's. Very nice guy. below is a pic from today.

Looks like a fun day out. Sorry I missed it but had to be in NYC this weekend. I'll be at the oct meet for sure. Any talk of getting them to extend the show till nov?

 

From what the organizer mentioned, this is to be a monthly event the first Sunday of each month.

 

Fun day yesterday. The show is supported by the merchants on Resturant Row to increase their business so there's no fee to enter or to spectate. It's refreshing to go to a show where they're honestly glad to see you and tell you so. Normally I'm a "Drive It" guy and stay away from shows but for this one I make an exception.

 

The organizer bought us a large pizza from Bruno's and delivered to the canopy. Nothing says I appreciate you like a tasty pizza. A big thanks.

Initially I heard it mentioned it was going to run from May to Oct and not occur during the winter. It will be great if they just keep it going and try to work around the winter days where the weather doesn't cooperate.

I was bumming not to be there. I was in Arkansas mid week and then had to fly east for my family.

Bring the issue in oct and I'll bring my sharpie!

As mentioned I have another set of flags to add to the collection. I'll bring them as well.

Who brought the 458? Looks like a really nice spec.

Looks like a missed out big time.

Reminder that the last installment for the year of the San Marcos Car show is this Sunday, Oct. 7 from 1 - 4PM.

 

I will be there. Is it 1pm now?

 

The organizer had shifted it to 1:00PM from the previous 2:00PM start.

 

Thanks I missed that on your earlier post.
