Charlotte RX-7 Get Together
I wanted to see if we have enough interest to start a Charlotte area meet. I know there are more than a few 7's in the area but you rarely see them out and if you do, it's a quick drive by. I live in Waxhaw which is about 5 minutes south of Charlotte but I’m willing to meet anywhere in the Mecklenburg/Union County area.
My thought was to have something once a month depending on people’s schedule.
I own a 1994 Chaste White RX-7
Thanks,
Michael

Mitty last year and he usually goes to this as well. Its a red FB with Weber IDA and
a lot of other nice features. My car is silver with a black bra on the nose.

I see Cars and Coffee has a rain date for this Saturday. Weather permitting I may
take my SA out there. I know of another FB guy from south Charlotte I met at the
Mitty last year and he usually goes to this as well. Its a red FB with Weber IDA and
a lot of other nice features. My car is silver with a black bra on the nose.

Yes they are having a rain date.
I also noticed they had some Code of Conduct issues last Saturday and plan on having a bigger police presence in the future.

RAIN DATE SATURDAY FEB 11th!
Hello All,
Today we had some less than favorable behavior at Cars and Coffee at North Lake! The last three years of this wonderful gathering have been issue free, but it seems that I need to refocus our code of conduct for a select few.
Today there were several people doing unnecessary burnouts and accelerating at rapid rates of speed in both the parking lot and in the driveway between the shopping center. This is the type of poor decision making that will make this gathering non existent. On most Saturdays you will encounter a few hundred cars and pedestrians enjoying the thrills of the gathering. It would be tragic if someones poor judgement got someone seriously injured or killed. There are a number of children that attend this event that could quickly get away from their parent or caregiver and face danger. The number of vehicles alone with time, skill, dedication and money tied into them to be damaged by some senseless act would ultimately dismantle this event.
This could not come at a more inappropriate time, many of you do not know but back in 2008 I was turned down by many venues that I originally wanted to host this event at because they did not understand the concept and were afraid of the issues that may surface. I had to write a rather lengthly proposal to the mall management at the time to have them accommodate the event on their property. At first they too did not want to be associated with this type of gathering, but after many discussions and witnessing the class act which this event has always been they agreed to host and have been very pleased ever since. Currently North Lake Mall has transitioned to a new property manager and I am in the throws of negotiating all over again with the new head of property to continue our civilized and fun event. Today's shenanigans and poor display of judgement from a select few is about to ruin this for everyone.
I ask for the sake of a now well established forum and event for car enthusiast here in Charlotte that you forgo the dangerous and unnecessary extracurricular activities! As a participant in C&C if you observed someone doing this please ask them to stop or if you do not feel comfortable doing it please take their tag number and report it to the Mecklenburg Police. I have developed a rapport over the last 3 years with the Mecklenburg PD after having to sell them initially of the civil nature of our event and I am going to ask them to step up their patrol of the event to insure that a select few do not ruin what the rest of us have established.
I hate to have to write a message like this, but it may be time after 3 years to re-establish the code of conduct for Charlotte's Cars and Coffee. I am very proud of the event that the car culture of Charlotte has developed and grown into. I can thank C&C for introducing me to many new and interesting friends that I hope to have for a life time, please help us keep this forum and venue alive for many years to come.
thank you,
Michael

so no tellin' what the turn out will be.
I'd like to start hitting this C&C on a regular basis this year. I can usually do early in
the morning on a weekend, afternoons and evenings get a lot harder.

Even for the cold weather and it being a rain date, there were a lot of nice cars
the Charlotte Cars and Coffee. Definitely going back every 1st Saturday.
I was the lone RX there amid the ferraris and porsches over in the import section
but at the end Adam showed up in his Montego Blue FD. So that made two.
I'll post pictures in a bit. I have to apologize to Adam as I had put the camera away
and forgot to get a picture of his car as I left. Getting old I guess

If anyone needs paintless dent repair, I strongly recommend Dent Pro. I'm very **** when it comes to my cars and Jeremy took this into consideration while working in my garage. I checked the Charlotte/Matthews/Fort Mill area and he had the best customer service, price, knowledge, and he didn't charge extra to complete everything in my garage.
