Bad weather can put a damper on any outdoor event, and unfortunately it affected the attendance for February’s Coffee and Cars meet. However, the weather couldn’t stop the group of "hardcore" enthusiasts that came out to support the meet. Luckily for me, I live near Vintage Park and was able to make it; if it had been hosted at a location further away I’m not sure I would’ve gone. I showed up a little after 7 am to a small crowd with umbrellas walking around mingling with fellow car lovers. There was light rain for the most part with a few spots of heavier showers.

With the past few weeks raining, there's been something missing in my weeks. The past two Northside Graphic Results Meets have been cancelled due to the bad weather but thankfully this week it was clear skies with some cool temperatures. When I first pulled up I was a bit disappointed with the lack of cars, as soon as I stepped out s group pulled in to the lot. More continued to showed up throughout the night. This might have been a smaller crowd that usual but still a great meet. Sometimes it's better to have a small meet once in...

MCX Car Meet was a new meet trying to start on the north side of Houston off 45 & Louetta.

As you can see the meet started off small and was like this for a...

What a great way to start the new year with the largest turnout so far, breaking records with over 1,000 on display. Many were walking through Vintage Park checking out all the rides that some only dream about owning.

The back lots are starting to see some action with overflow parking reaching that area, hidden from most enthusiasts staying towards...
