Cool Club Auto location for Cars and Coffee....but actually a bummer for a few Parker friends who had a super easy drive over to Southlands while doing other stuff on Saturday. Anyone know if the Great Indoors one is still on?

 

This just gives you a reason to drive the Ferrari a little further. It will be a much better location for car enthusiasts and not people just going to the, "mall."

 

Agreed....good reason to drive and a great location....but not as often now for me on a saturday morning due to distance.....and competing priorities for time on Saturdays!

 

You punks need to come down to Colorado Springs you know. We have the saturday afternoon meets with all the nice muscle cars up on austin bluffs and academy. I wanna see more exotic cars out there!

Of course I do suggest leaving before 10PM or else your gonna have a bunch of riced out honda's trying to race you

 

Actually maybe suggest a date....post it and it could be a nice drive down sometime. The Denver bunch could possibly meetup at I-25/Lincoln (like the Great Beginnings Parking Lot).

 

It would be very cool if we could get the Great Indoors meet along with the Arvada meet to combine at Club Auto. It feels like Colorado is so close to doing something great in the automotive world. We will never pull numbers like Irvine, but it would be cool to get a few hundred cars together every week.


I would love to get a bunch of cars to drive up to the Springs this summer. How late do those meets go until?

 

What's jetpreview? I can't get the website to open.

 

Go to http://www.aircraftexperience.com/show.php?show=40 and you can sign up. It's an event sponsored by Porsche which is kind of a Denver Auto Show for Private Jets. Porsche also does a Autocross where you can drive one of there cars.


If anyone is looking for a nice evening this Thursday with dinner, live band, and open bar, check out www.coloradocarevents.com for more info.
