    May 4th Caffeine and Carburetors New Canaan, CT

    Putting the thread up for Helo Steve and CT gang interested in getting to C&C and May 4th!! I'm in!

    When: Sunday May 4th
    What: C&C
    Where: New Canaan, CT


    "Caffeine & Carburetors is a gathering of automotive enthusiasts. We meet at Zumbach’s Gourmet Coffee in New Canaan, CT about 6 times year to enjoy our rides and share them with like-minded gear heads hiding in and around Connecticut and New York.


    We have a tendency to lean toward sports cars, with the occasional Model A or 1920′s Rolls Royce, but our emphasis is on foreign sports cars. We enjoy all vehicles and there are no sponsorships or awards.

    Doug Zumbach began hosting these gatherings in 1995. These Sundays start around 8 am to gather and enjoy a cup of coffee followed by a leisurely drive through the countryside.

    Caffeine and Carburetors is a way to indulge the gear head in all of us. Visit our events page for a listing of our upcoming gatherings. http://caffeineandcarburetors.com/"

    Unfortunately, I won't be able to make the May 4th show. I still highly recommend everyone check it out. Some really rare, beautiful cars are always there!

    I'm in. I'll send out an email blast tonight. We may have some competition on Sat, there's an airfield drag event somewhere in NY and I suspect we'll lose some folks to that event. It's not a NY/CT event. I forget what it's called....

    I'm coming down the Merritt from Hamden. Be careful on the Merritt, the po-po are out and about. One visited me on the Merritt Sunday morning.

    Mr. T, what time does it start/end I might drive up after work but will confirm Friday. If time is a issue I will try and make Steve's event.

    It starts at 8am and parking fills up fast. I will be there by 8am, hang around for a couple of hours. I was thinking about going to Steve's show around 10 or 11 then head home.

    If any of you guys want to meet and park together, we can meet in New Canaan at St A,s church or the old town hall parking lot. 7am would be best. The theme of this show is Ferraris on Elm. It would be great to see a turnout of Vipers. Last show there were two.

    I reached out to the organizer and they'd love to have more Vipers there. He said to be there by 7:45am but I think 99ACR has the right idea to be there at 7am. It should fill up quickly. I do plan on heading down and can you guys at 7am-ish. I don't have a good track record of driving down the Merrit early in the morning and speeding tickets (allegedly).

    From the guy who is no-showing... . I'd get there as early as possible. With 700 cars at the last show, I'd expect a similar amount. They were turning cars away as early as 8am as far as I know.

    Someone please take some pics of the LaFerrari that will likely be there!

    I'm coming down the Merritt from the Hamden area. I think 99ACR and others are coming from NY. I can meet up with other Vipers along the Merrit somewhere. If not, I will meet at old Town Hall parking lot at 7 in New Canaan.

    Sure. How about 6:30am? (lol that's early) but we'd be in New Canaan around 7am. My neighbors are going to be thrilled when I fire up the viper early tomorrow morning.
