Default Starbucks Meet Every Sunday at 8pm

In case anyone is interested, a lot of people with many different kinds of cars meet up at starbucks in Santa Clara at El Camino Real and Lawrence. It's always relaxed with people bs'ing and chatting about cars with some coffee to drink. Come on out if you're interested.

I live a block away so I'm always there (Starbucks...not the meet part). Tonight there were at least 6 police cars hanging out there (they do this on Sunday nights). In fear that the ricers would rev like crazy and start peeling out as they usually do, we left right away. I rolled through around 10:50 in the supra along with two buddies (two FD rx7's...one rotary tt and the other corvette ls1 powered).
I think I spotted one silver 350z still there.

yeah i've seen that supra and the rx7 many times just rolling through. Every now and then you'll get a ricer acting stupid. Also there is no worries about the cops. They are cool and they used to park over where we do and they would check out our cars and bs with us, now they park along the side of the building to give us our space. If you ever need anything signed off on they are the ones to help.

Not to call you out, but i'd like to see some numbers to back that onwer's claim. there aren't exactly just random anonymous 700hp Z's rolling around. That's a threshold that's barely been touched so far.

Why would you be calling me out. It's not my car and I just met the guy last night. He was really layed back with no cocky ego because of his car. I'm not sure if he's on this forum or not but I remember him saying his car was built at Scott Performance in santa clara and the he himself owns a body shop. He has an APS setup with more than enough little goodies to back it up. Doesn't really matter to me if it's a 700hp Z cause it was a nice car either way. Come out next weekend and check it out. It should be there.

It's a white 350Z track. I'm normally the only Z out there. A few roll through once and awhile.

Ah. I've definitely seen you out there at least one Sunday before then. There was one afternoon I was there and there was a PPW track parked there and the owner was taking tripod pictures of his Z. Was that you too?
