    Re: Crystal Cove Car Show moves back to the beach!

    Again, Back to the Beach is just an alternative to the C&C show. The C&C show is not dead. Yet. Ha ha j/k. I have nothing against the C&C show or people there, the location on the other hand.........

    There are enough cars in the SoCal area to support both shows. What a great thing to have, a choice!

    The Catalina Flyer Parking is a non-issue unless this show gets past 500 cars, which I doubt. They don't use many spots.

    The area businesses are on board. They have contacted me, and are going to make us very "comfortable" with law enforcement and city council.

    The C&C show was always supposed to be a "temp" home. I wasn't going to spend six months of Saturdays at an industrial complex in in Irvine, until someone found a new home.

    Looks like lots of people agree.

    Sorry, but my personality is wired for action. I don't do idle well.


    I am trying to do a positive thing for the car community. Why there are any naysayers about this, I don't understand. Is it because they live closer to PAG? Or, do they have some vested $$ interest?

    Try it you might like it. Again, use common sense on approach to the peninsula.




    Oh, I now see.

    The problem for Frank4cars is he is running a business shooting/selling car photo's. I have no problem with that. He does good work. The problem is he can't be in two places, at one time.

    Off his site.

      Not sure why you feel the need to attack me on this. I was answering another member's question about C & C. After 3 years attending and photographing CC and other SoCal car events, and meeting with the officials surounding them, I have learned a few things I am happy to share to keep these kinds of events happening and running smoothly. Balboa was one of the locations we discussed when C & C was being considered and a lot of people felt PAG was a better choice. Now that Balboa is again on the table, in order for it succeed, you'll probably find my advice helpful. Don't be hatin'. I have been up front about everything from the beginning, unlike some others.

                      There was a lot of confusion about this. C & C (at Ford-PAG near the Spectrum) is the "official" continuation of Crystal Cove. It is still drawing 300-500 cars a week and will continue indefinitely. This Balboa event is an alternative for people who would rather meet at the beach. Sort of like the smaller mets at 3-Thirty-3 and Ten/Tentation/Panini.
