Some of the guys have better, hi-res DSLR pics coming, but I figure I may as well put some of what I took up too! If I could remember everyone's handles, that'd be fan freaking tastic.

The Cobra is a Backdraft replica, owned by Classic Car Club Manhattan, driven in by Aaron. We found a sheet metal screw in a tire, it doesn't idle properly (air filter is also totally clogged), and has a cracked windshield. Awesome, but needs some TLC, even for a replica. But at the same time, it's been driven all over hell, so it's got some serious street cred.

I'll post the hi-res when I get home tonight, along with a crappy timelapse that's poorly framed of my drive up.

Ok I was wondering. Most the other cars I recognized at least to a degree. Who owns the Marauder again?

OffroadKarter owns the Marauder. It's supercharged, and for some silly reason, he put on a quieter exhaust. I'm not complaining though, it was a bit much before, and he wasn't shy about it)

Oops. I should have checked here. I live in Norwalk so I'm always at these things. My buddy I went with knows a few of the suuuper classic Aston owners. I'll be there in October if they have one for sure, however I beleive they're moving it to Waveny park. It's bigger, and very pretty.

That said, did anyone see the original slant nose Porsche tucked away in the corner? Last year there was a Porsche 959 down there! It's like the nice owners are all reclusive!

Yeah! I did see the slant nose, and the 959 last time. They're really thinking of moving it to Waveny park? It would totally make sense.

That was what I've heard! I hope we have an October one. That's my favorite since it's nice and cool. If it's at Waveny the leaves and stuff will make it even more scenic. Hopefully I'll have my R32 back by then.......

Are you pretty local?

Totally true. What year R32?

I'm sorta local; I'm born and raised in Queens, and was living with my girlfriend up there in South Salem, NY but have moved back to the city since that's where work took me. I'm up there pretty often though.

You said you're from Norwalk? Ever been to Tacos Mexico? My favorite Mexican food by far anywhere.

Mk5 Has a hole in the transmission thanks to a box truck driveshaft falling out in front of me on the highway and impaling my poor car.

HOLY SHIT YES! It's the best Mexican I've had enchiladas for days. That makes me laugh so much you mentioned it. I think I might do that for dinner tonight now...thanks. They're always offering groupons too.

My buddy's got an MK5 that he LOVES and I freaking love driving it when I can.

Tacos is the BEST! I was there the other night. If you make it before 7, it's 4 dollar house margaritas! Every time the groupon comes around, my girlfriend, myself and her whole family buy as many as groupon will allow hah. Super Tacos' are my goddamn favorite there. So much food for such a great price.

I haven't seen the groupon NOT be available. And I did not know that about the margaritas things. I'm within easy bicycle distance, so I'm going to keep that in mind after work. If you remember seeing a SUPER nice and clean Volvo V30 at any local shows (including C&C except this month) he lives just up the road from Tacos Mexico. Up that road is also another awesome burrito place, small hole in the wall Hispanic market, but the burrito was 6.50, huge, and came with avocado..no extra charge!
