Here's where the actual Cars & Coffee meet is (if you've never been there before): http://goo.gl/maps/Xbm9U
If you end up meeting us at the C&C event instead of beforehand, know that they try to arrange cars into sections. The "Japanese" section is to the left, as you enter the lot, about halfway down. Look for Subarus and Mazdas (both these local enthusiast groups typically show up quite early).
It's bound to get very crowded this month, due to nice weather (unless it rains) so it might be best to park along the curbs (like the photo below) instead of in parking spots. If we park in actual spots we'll get blocked in by people parking in the lanes and we won't be able to leave early to head to TDR. People tend to park here last so we should be able to grab a long section of curb all to ourselves if we all get there together by 7.

If anyone has any other thoughts or ideas, please chime in.
I'm in.
My car still works, I just have to see if I can get my ass up that early haha.
If you have enough cars at 7 then take the lane in front of the spaces preemptively. I thought we did that once before.
This is the other option. Several of us take parking spaces and 2 or 3 cars preemptively park in front and block our own people in. Then we can make the get-away whenever. However, I personally prefer parking on the curb like that. The cars have more visibility that way, IMO.Quote:

Not everyone's car looks like yours haha, mine is pretty iffy if they would let it in.
If you're not sure your car is show worthy, it's probably not.
Not to rain on anyone's parade, but I haven't seen very many Miatas that are show-worthy. The OP's white one is, however...
Neither are the what seems like dozens of mustangs that show up there.
No argument from me.Quote:

I'll be AT cnc, but I never park inside, partially due to the fact that I wake up at 7, maybe get there around 7:20 or so. I'll meet up with y'all though, and join y'all for the convoy down to TDR.
Doesn't look like Scrat is going to be out of paint in time, however, we'll still be up in Dallas to send our son off to MN for the summer. I'm planning on coming out to CNC and also to TDR for a few hours with my family. Looking forward to seeing everyone again and meeting some new people!
Bummer. But all good things come to those who wait!!
POSSIBLY considering i live in frisco also
I'll go.
Whoops I'll be out of town for a wedding on Friday and sat.
