Despite the freezing temperatures, wind, and occasional flurries, I made it out to Caffeine and Octane. The 260Z was a little grumpy starting out since it had not been driven in about two months. However, once it got warm, it purred. I bought a better camera and went wild with the pictures. One of my fellow Georgia Z Club members gave me a set of flat-top carbs & air cleaner that he had left over from scavenging parts. I think he said they came with an N36.

I've also attached a picture of the cars of the die-hard S30 gang.

Thanks for sharing the nice pictures. High resolution too. That is great having so many different kinds of cars there.

It's my pleasure. Caffeine and Octane is my (almost) monthly indulgence. It's difficult to keep me away from it. It's quite amazing considering it's a free car show. Usually the parking lot is full by about 7:30.

Awesome pix!! Thanks

Sweet rides!

So, Mr. Jones, are you going to try to join us some time at C & O?

I stopped by for a few minutes but had other appointments to tend to. I parked by the China Bistro since I was in a rush. I should be able to make the next one and will try for a better parking space.

Okay, now I remember your car. It's hard to recognize from the avatar. We met when you were fueling up your Z a Krogers at Freedom Plaza. Glad to see you made it to this forum, too.

Yeah, there is a ton of info here and some great looking cars!! I look forward to the next C&O.

I need to bite the bullet and make the drive one morning, it's on my list for this year...best free carshow I'll probably ever get to see.
