Just Another Saturday @ Cars and Coffee

It's been so long since my last visit to Cars and Coffee. Well, I must say, it was bitter sweet. It was great seeing all the old faces and beautiful cars but a little heart breaking to not be promoting Velocity there.

On May 16th, Laura and I went to Cars and Coffee to rekindle ourselves with the passionate OC car world. It's so funny how we both had different agendas... Laura was going to promote Hagerty, bringing awareness to the OC car enthusiasts. Since Velocity, she has landed a sweet gig. She attends all the car shows, meets and greets all that attend, and lets them know about Hagerty. And I went to Cars and Coffee to promote the Concours d'Elegance held at the St. Regis.

It turned out to be a great Saturday. We ran into so many old faces and was quickly reminded on how much we were loved!!!! One of the early morning patrons was Samuel Hubinette, aka "The Crazy Swede", a professional race car driver and Hollywood stunt driver. We stopped and chatted about how well his new Performance Driving Academy was doing. I think I might take him up on his offer to get behind the wheel and feel the hunk of metal pushed to the limits. Next classes are set for June 13th and 14th...

Every week there is a theme... as you can see it was Porsche weekend.
