Monthly Blackhawk Cars & Coffee Meet - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

MisterSheep · 07-27-2015, 04:03 PM

I know there are some mentions of this car meet in threads but I did not see one just specifically for it. Wanted to get this thread together so people can talk about meeting up with other 86'ers to drive together to this meet. The next upcoming one is Sunday August 2nd and is located at Blackhawk Auto Museum in Danville.

I believe the last couple months, the 86Drive folks have organized a caravan to the meet. Check out the last couple pages of the Drive chat thread

It would be cool to see more 86's out there. The Mustang and Camaro clubs always try and park in a row together. The only issue is, they claim it starts at 8am, when realistically, people start showing up around 6am, which makes parking very difficult.

This is one of my favorite local car shows because anyone can park anywhere and its got a great vibe to it. It would be great if we could roll in with a large group of 86s, I think our group for this event has been growing each month.

@PMok has organized a Castro Valley rally point to the venue, thru a short canyon sprint towards Blackhawk. Anyone care to organize a San Ramon rally point, that's fine too. Meet up at Crow Canyon Commons, down the street from Blackhawk.

PMok · 07-27-2015, 08:45 PM

yup, last 2 months or so we have gathered up at around 6:30AM and rolled in to the show together... but as a fairly small group of about 5-6 cars. I am not 100% sure I can make it this month, but if someone (one of the regulars like @overlookedx or @The Racers Line?) wants to lead a short caravan drive there (you are free to pick a starting spot of your preference) please do and I will add the info up to the events calendar if we can post that up in advance.

^^^ This is completely true. You see the camaro club park right in the middle of the parking lot and most people do get there around 6:30 which is kind of rediculous

My girlfriend and I have always hit up the Starbucks in the Marketplace in San Ramon before we head up there. Her and her dad bring their 1966 Ford Broncos, they both have their own. I believe the road you guys drive through is Crow Canyon? from Castro Valley? I'm willing to meet up with other 86'ers before the meet for a roll in, the next question is who wants to set up/ organize the roll in.

Why don't we just plan to meet up at that Starbucks? It wont be much of a drive, but that means that we can meet a bit later at around 7am and make the short drive to Blackhawk and still arrive early enough to park together.

Here's the address for anyone following along:
500 Market Place
San Ramon, CA

OK, thanks for leading this one Chris. I've added this to the events calendar on 86DRIVE. If I'm not able to attend, I authorize you to issue 86DRIVE STARS to all drivers who join on this caravan to the BC&C.

Im looking forward to meeting both of you there.

The Racers Line · 07-30-2015, 12:15 AM

I'm coming down from up north obviously, so I won't make the caravan, but I'll see you all there!

TofuJoe · 08-01-2015, 07:17 PM

Not sure if I'll make it to the caravan, but I'm planning to go tomorrow.

lamune · 08-01-2015, 08:17 PM

Will be there tomorrow at 7 or so. @PMok, any 86drive stickers?
