This is my first one too. Don't know anything but what their website says (not much) other than its from 8 to 10am. http://www.blackhawkmuseum.org/carsncoffee.html

I will probably get there a little early because I don't know what the deal is....

It was a pretty good event. Not enough euro representation in my opinion, but worth going. Below are some highlights....









Mine is in the middle....

I ended up sleeping until noon and just didn't make it. After I turned 40 last year I just can't seem to turn down an opportunity to sleep in.

I have been going since the first meet (I live just around the corner). The event used to have a better balance between Euros and classics. It seemed that people with classics are more dedicated than Euros (get up much earlier); and the meet has been invaded by the Vette club, Mustang club and now Camaro club.

Thanks Z! Did you used to have a 370Z? The reason I ask was because I met a guy named Blake at Santana Row some time ago and he had a white 370Z. It matches your screen name.

Nope, had a 280Z in the early 09's though! Blake is my last name...

It was a much better turn out this time compared to last month. I'd wager it was 50/50 euro to domestic this time. Some nice Porsches and lots of Ferrari's. Even a 3 wheeler Morgan showed.
