Default Another car show. *PICS / VIDEO*

What an amazing morning. Saw yet another Enzo. Not the same one I normally see here Saturday mornings. Looked great! The Carrera GT was flawless. A bunch of awesome cars came this morning. Little background. Every Saturday morning there is a car-get-together at the Ford Building here in Irvine, CA. It's called Cars & Coffee. 500+ cars show up every weekend.

I was talking to my dad and I heard a car coming up behind me. The sound was not that of a typical muscle car or exotic, so I tuned around. Fabryce Kutyba of GMG Racing drove the GMG Racing 997 WCGT3 Cup Car to Cars & Coffee. I don't believe he trailered it to the show as I did not see a trailer in the parking lot. That means this guy drove a cup car on the freeway. I don't know how illegal that is, but I'm sure it is. You can hear me in the video mention the smell of race gas. I have no idea what the car was running on but it smelled and made my eyes water a bit. Just another day in car paradise.





















Not a real Hemi Dart, but it was done perfect. I did not know besides the Bugatti Veyron, the Hemi Dart is the fastest production 1/4 mile car.






Here is something you never see. This is an old postal vehicle that was used in Europe. Thing was a sleeper. Moved out quick when he left.











Here is a Callaway Corvette. The rims were Kevlar. Is this old technology or new? I have not heard of Kevlar wheels before.

And now for GMG Racing's 997 WCGT3 Cup Car. He just drove up, parked, and got out like it was no big deal. This thing is the real deal.















Now for some videos! Here is the Carrera GT throwing as nice rev as he is leaving. You could hear him getting on the freeway, very awesome.





Here is the GMG Cup Car starting up and warming up. I have seen a lot of cool cars and heard a lot of cool cars, but nothing has sounded like this car. It's hard to tell by the video, but when this car turned on, it just sounded like it was ready to eat babies.




Here is the GMG Cup Car leaving. Turning radius is not good. The exhaust smelled good. He took off, made a left and drove off. I'm pretty sure he got on the freeway. You don't see many Cup Cars on the freeways around here. haha.





I'm not trying to brag by posting these pictures. I figure most people on here are car nuts like myself and would like to see a car-get-together that takes place every Saturday. I know in most parts of the country there is snow on the ground or it is raining so it's hard to have car-get-togethers.

Hope you enjoyed the pictures and video.

that orange lambo is prolly my dream car. That color is ridiculous and the LP640 in that color with some deep dish black wheels would be one hell of a machine to park next to the Z in a garage, hopefully someday
