There is an Irvine C&C every Sat. Get there early and enjoy the show.

Yes, every Saturday there's a C&C meeting. There's usually a pretty good turnout unless bad weather or near a big holiday. Cars usually start leaving by 8am. I know it's early, but there are often some really nice cars and interesting people you meet. I met Magnus Walker there 2 weeks ago. Another time, Alios Ruf just walked right up to us and my friend noticed him right away! He was gracious enough to take a pic with him.

Best to get there around 6am. The parking lots usually fill up with cars by 6:30am. When it gets real crowded they start prohibiting certain cars from parking in the lot. Usually these cars are just slight modified cars which are not considered a special or exotic type.

That reminds me of my last visit to C&C 2 weeks ago. They were not letting a whole line of cars in front of me to park inside. When I pulled up with some fellow RL'ers he immediately said "ALL Porsches are welcome" and let us all in without question. Guess our Porsches are considered exotic, no matter what condition or age they are!

I'll be in the area this weekend, and might make the effort to drop in.

My little pit crew (4 &3 year old boys) agreed to go. Right now it is looking like a boys' morning. I doubt the girls will be getting up at 5AM to look at cars.

Unfortunately, my Porsches will be on the wrong coast to take along. I doubt my father-in-law's mini van will make the cut into parking lot.

Please, someone tell me the location!

Thanks,

Just park in the Ford parking structure, where they'll undoubtedly be doing focus group type stuff. Well, maybe not at 6AM. And note you'll be walking past Taco Bell HQ. No, no restaurant on site. That I know of, anyway.
