Default Cars and Coffee v.2.18 *Welcome back SUN!*

Sun, we missed you. Please don't go away again!

Sure the rain made for some awesome shots last week. But we where cold and miserable the whole time...and...and...this is sunny southern California....suuuuuuuunnny! So, sun, stay with us please! We promise we won't cover you up wish SMOG ever again!

Well...we aren't really promising...they're making us...damn C.A.R.B!

Well this week I didn't really see anything at Cars & Coffee that excited me too much and made me go "OMG!" I guess I'm a bit jaded now. However, I still took plenty of shots for you all. Here is this weeks collection:

D-bag of the week:

The driver of this Lamborghini Aventador mashed the throttle when he left his parking spot and sped through the lot carelessly to show off for his buddy. He didn't seem to care about what he did and didn't seem to understand the dangers. That anyone could have come out from in between the show cars and have been struck. Be it an adult, a child or a dog or another car. He could have easily hurt or killed someone.

wow that's awesome! Watching the XK evolve over the years from a 300hp GT sports car to the hardcore 550hp XKR-S has been a fun transition

He floored it leaving the lot too, I am surprised the cop didn't do anything. The car is fast

Was he in the black one - if so I saw him leaving that day and he was "on it" out of the exit. Sounded mean but he was pretty careless.

BTW guys I will no longer be sharing my pics here for the following reason:

I got a PM from DaveGS4 stating:
Dear SVT2888,

You have received a warning at Club Lexus Forums.

Reason:
-------
Non-approved Advertising, Sales or Solicitation - First Warning

Reference signature and ongoing link campaign

Quote:
CNCpics.com-Automotive Event Photography
Facebook
Ebay Store
Hi,

We appreciate you sharing your images, but you can't use Club Lexus to promote your business. Sharing as an enthusiast blog is OK as long as you aren't overly-promotional with offsite linking and items such as your ebay store, etc linked in your signature and posts.

No site where you promote your business or sell items can be linked unless you are an approved CL vendor sponsor, as defined in our forum terms of service.

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/faq....aq_advertising
eBay link was a dud. There was nothing there. I had just copy pasted my sig from another forum. Woops.

As to my "business" well...we don't really sell anything. I mean....you COULD buy one of the pics but you can also easily "right-click save-as"

Hell, what business are we running if we have 3 million hits and have NOT even tried to get a sponsor?

The purpose of CNCpics is just to share pics of automotive happenings around So Cal with the automotive enthusiast world.
Heck, the times I've done private photoshoots all I've charged is LUNCH! I truly do this just for fun!
Only the last few photoshoots I charged an actual fee, but that was only because I was donating all the money to my best friend who has two brain tumors.

Thanks for the support for those that enjoyed seeing the pics I posted,

-Leo
