Put it this way, really. If you're ever in Dallas for a week, make sure it's on the last Saturday of every month & head over to Cars & Bikes at RAC. It's a smaller gathering, but the cars that show up have so far surpassed almost everything that happens to show up at C&C.

C&C may have had a Veyron a couple times, a SLS, a 458, etc., C&B usually always manages to draw in a large number of high performance Porsches, RUFs, Ferraris, & other classics in the area who try to stay away from the crowd at C&C.
3 dozen is quite a bit lol, compared to here. Do you guys have cops at your take-off location? I took this today, notice the cop sitting right there lol

As I said, if you're lucky. It's usually less than 2 dozen & they're scattered all over the lot.

And yes, we have police. They have become a huge presence. We'll have anywhere from 1-2 cops at the entrance to another one down the road with radar.

Texas HP has even sat past the tollgate to catch people taking off onto the on ramp.

yea you guys have it worse for cops. We got this one guy thats all I've seen. I remember over the summer we were getting noise complaints from near-by apartments, but that has stopped now. The cops are usually lenient. Unless you really speed off you will be fine.

There was this one day when there was no cop for like the first 30 min when people started to leave. Boy was that the best 30 min, I've enjoyed at C&C lol

A family friend imports cars. He had two about 15 years ago for a buyer in SF. I didn't really know what I was looking at at the time but I've wanted one ever since - as impractical as they are. Fucking awesome.

Haven't done one in a while. Everyone keeps talking about it, so I suspect there will be one in the spring.

The color on that car was incredible. Looked like red velvet. Pics don't do it justice. Owner bought a 458 on the same day. Gets every new Ferrari that comes out. Also has a F1.

GTO > sex.

Someone in our neighborhood has a 599 and everytime I see it I stare like a kid. The GTO must be that much meaner.

Yeah that was a Cobra replica next to it. Gorgeous car but I see it every time I go to C&C so I didn't bother taking pics

Yeah the Spyder looks best in white but the red wasn't terrible.

There was a V8 Vantage there and while I was looking at it, the V12 pulled up. I was like omgggzzzzzzz.

Exactly what I said. I've only read about them in car magazines, never seen one in person before.
