Jesus, what a kerwalitee bit of metal!

That cosworth escort however humble does it for me - must be rare in the states. The towncar lowrider is seriously cool as well.

lovely photos - thanks for sharing.

whats this?



Was there some wide angle'd cleverness in some of those photos?

[MaxN]

All pics taken with a canon eos 20D wearing a 10-22mm lens - so yes, rather a lot of WIIIIIDE angleness..

The Alfa ?

It is an uber-rare 'Junior Zagato' and possibly my most favoritest car there after the Le-Mans Porky

Stiffy of the 'baby's arm holding a cooking apple' variety alert

Amazing! Just amazing! I love that alfa Zagato too, defo a 'yog retention inhibitor' that one.

I think I read about this event in Classic Cars, apparently there is no real organisation as such, everyone knows just to turn up early on a certain day in their old car. Is it getting knocked on the head from now on?

[Lewis]

Cor, what an amazing selection of photos and cars! Thanks very much!

[hairnet]

loving all the alfas and the porsche coupe

wtf the 911 with the round lights!!!!

The meeting got moved on from its old location - Crystal Cove - because people started to complain about noise and excessive speed.

The new home of the meeting is at the Ford Prestige Auto Group headquarters.

There is really no organization at all, there are many, many car clubs in SoCal and as a club they decide to invade a meeting or other on an irregular basis. I was at a meeting in San Diego a year ago and the Viper club turned up - 30+ of them !

The attendance changes each week, and usually Ford dig something extraordinary out to show, often not a Ford product - the LeMans Porky was put back in the Ford building !

Ford also organize the parking, coffee and security.

This week there where a couple of cops patrolling the exit, apparenly last week a Viper driver left 300yds of rubber showing off as he left - there are also 'no burn out' signs up

it is good natured, disorganized and chaotic, but the hardware is often droolworthy.

I have a feeling the 'uber-rare Alfa Club' decided to attend this one.

If you mean the orange and black RS that's just a normal 997.

I am not so sure, It had the cage, the seats, the trim, the wings, the wheels, the brakes, the color scheme......

Not to mention that the guy was saying that it is only the second GT3 RS in the US the other one having the inverse color scheme.....

[street]

Fantastic! Really enjoyed looking at those, thanks!
Loads of interesting stuff I don't know much about or have never seen before, so many questions!

Nah as in the round lights are standard on the 997. I don't doubt it's a real (faptastic) one for a moment.

Also if that's a real cobra and a real shelby daytona then...well... oof!
