I traded a few messages with someone in that group but it never amounted to a meet and greet. Hopefully some of that group will be at DGRR So we can put something together.

same with the Atlanta group OGTA. The distance sort of sucks for me but if meetings occurred on weekend I could make it. Regardless I'm just looking forward to meeting so many others sharing the passion of rotary madness.

I'm not on FB, when/where is a Charlotte group meeting? Is it periodic or just random?

I'm not sure I'm familiar with any from the Charlotte group yet. I'd know them by they're club names if I knew who they are.

I just found the Raleigh Rotary facebook group and requested to join. Hopefully I can connect with some local folks. I know several years ago the Raleigh community used to be pretty active.

The one I almost always frequent is Cars and Coffee Morrisville, the first Saturday of each month at 1101 Shiloh Glenn Dr, Morrisville, NC 27560.

Cars and Coffee Wake Forest starts back up next month. March 16th, at 3229 Burlington Mills Rd, Wake Forest, NC 27587.

How big are these events? Are they under control and enjoyable or full of revving stangs/dodges etc? We have one here in Charlotte thats ~1200 cars or more and it is ok but gets lots of newer cars and not as many hot rods, one offs and classics as some of the smaller ones in the area. I go to it occasionally but stay closer mostly.

They're normally under control with a cop presence to cut down on the stupidity. The size really depends on the weather and how long the event has been at the same location. It's not as big as ~1200 cars, usually around 250-500 cars. Different cars at each event so it's hard to predict what will come out.

It may not be worth a big drive but you never know. Usually the nicer weather brings the unique cars out but that's not always the case.

I'd be glad to go to the next one! I've got an 06 Galaxy Grey GT RX-8 currently, but I'm looking to pick up another FD here soon (not to say I don't like the RX-8, I love it, but I miss the RX-7's.) I'm in the Cary area and I go to NC State, so, It's not too far at all.
