East Bay GT car get-together
I’m gauging interest in setting up a regular, casual get-together, focused on Porsche GT cars, in the East Bay of the San Francisco area.
What do you all think of the 3rd Sunday of the month, around 9am (first GTG would be July 16th)? In terms of locations, I suggest City Center in San Ramon which has good parking, easy freeway access and a good coffee shop (Philz).
Disclosure: I usually hang out in other sub-forums, mostly the 997 GT forum.

It might make sense to try and piggyback on either PCA GGR boxster brunch and their cars and coffee events as a start
San Ramon might not capture people who live south of sf though

Bumping this thread. Let's aim for a GT-car focused get-together at 9am on Sunday July 16th at
which is in the eastern corner of the shopping center and has plenty of parking. All cars are welcomed of course but it'd be nice to get some GT cars together.
Hope to see some of you there this Sunday. I'll be there in a white 997.1

last bump: hope to meet some of you this Sunday 7/16 at 9am. Also, since I got feedback that the Google map I previously shared didn't load correctly for some people, the address is 6000 Bollinger Canyon Rd #1609, San Ramon, CA 94583. That's the address for Philz Coffee in City Center / Bishop Ranch. It's in a less trafficked part of the center and has plenty of parking.

Excellent turnout today!
Thanks for coming out.
Lets make this a regular 3rd Sunday of the month event. I realize the next date August 19 is during Monterey Car Week but lets see who can make it.
Enjoy the pics

Next GTG is this Sunday, November 19th at 9am at San Ramon City Center at Bishop Ranch. However, the spot near Philz Coffee where we normally meet is temporarily occupied by an ice skating rink, so we are meeting in the southwest corner of the same parking lot, near Starbucks. The location is closer to the intersection of Bollinger Canyon Road and Sunset Drive. (Starbucks address is: 6000 Bollinger Canyon Rd, San Ramon, CA 94583).
Hope to see a number of you there.
