Here's the photos that I took - http://www.apexrally.com/2010/06/exotics-at-rtc-6510.html Kudos to the organizers. That was a fun event.
Hi Everyone! Looks like we will have the first REALLY NICE Saturday of the summer! Temps are expected to be in the mid-70s and SUNNY! Yes, I said SUNNY!!!! With record turnouts you don't want to miss the first SUNNY (did I say SUNNY?) E@RTC event in a while! Don't forget to bring lots of sun screen and sun glasses for those of us pasty-white folks who've not seen direct sunlight in a while. Fire extinguishers will be on hand for anyone in danger of bursting into flames. A giant thanks to my fellow parking thugs for making the traffic flow always run so smoothly. You sure make the event a lot of fun for everyone. We couldn't do make it work so well without you.

BTW, on Saturday morning about 10:15AM I followed the red 348 from RTC to 85th via 520 and 405, and whoever that is, your aftermarket exhaust sounds ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! Tell me about your exhaust setup please.
Hi Everyone! Looks like we will have nice weather for Saturday so we're on once again. The cars are back from Gold Rush, so hopefully a few will come out for the event. Last week was a really terrific turnout at around 100 cars and we keep seeing more and more new cars and faces each week. Spectator attendance is growing fast making Saturday morning even more fun! Just when you think you've seen it all, something new comes out to play so don't miss a week of E@RTC! See you all Saturday!
Sorry everyone, but it looks like the weather turned on us so we have to cancel E@RTC. When we called it, all the forecast was good on all sites but little by little it turned to rain. Lets hope for great weather next week. Ugh!
You Washington guys don't drive your cars in the rain? Of course, since you can't legally wash your own car, I guess that makes sense...
Last year we still held E@RTC on days when it was threatening to rain. You know who never-ever showed up? The guys who posted something about others never driving in the rain.
When it rains I don't even take my Big Wheel out - it doesn't have fenders on it. Anyway... These rainy Saturdays create big turnouts for when the sun does hit, so lots of cars to see on those days.
Yup, this is true. Last year our 4th of July weekend was our largest turnout. We think it will be the same this year too... assuming it doesn't rain.
Looks like we will have decent weather on Saturday for E@RTC! While still showing a 10% chance of rain, we think it will be a go, but good to check here. Lots going on in the coming weeks after E@RTC so stay tuned and keep your Saturdays open!
Thanks again to John - that was a real treat for my son and I today! And he enjoyed talking about your work as well.
Damn work, just got in town the same morning and there was no way I could have made it. next time maybe.
Here's a few shots. The 240Z sure brought back some memories!

Here are my pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/atomic80/sets/72157624250081109/show/ It was a smaller turnout than usual but still a good one. It was incredible being able to see Dana's Testarossa. It still ranks up there as being one of my all time favorites!
Me too!!! I remember being a kid at home in the 70's when a neighbor bought one and brought it home. All of us kids sat there on the curb as he drove by with our jaws hanging on the ground!!! Mike
owned a 280zx years ago and test drove a 240z about the same time. I liked it, my 280zx was my only car ever to overheat to a point where the temperature needle had no more room to go to on the right of the gauge and the car was still running like a champ.
