For those not on Facebook... the organizer of Cars and Coffee Charlotte posted this update earlier today:
"Good new and bad news: The good news is that the Charlotte Area Cars and Coffee group has a new home! We have been invited by the owner of the NC Music Factory and Mattie's Diner to use their facility to host our monthly event. After several locations and site visits this is going to be the best location for us. It has all of the criteria plus some. We have a centralized location in Uptown Charlotte (off of Graham St/NC Music Factory Blvd- corner of Hamilton St and 12th), a very large parking facility, multiple outlets from the property, a great Diner to serve hot coffee and food, and a owner that is also caught up in the car craziness!
Bad news is that with the deal just inked at the last minute there are several things that need to be completed before we start. We need to give Mattie's a chance to prepare for the influx, to establish our event with the Uptown division of Charlotte's Police Department and to complete a new list of compliance rules that need to be approved that we must follow in order to get started. (As you know the poor decisions by a select few lead to this change so to insure that this does not happen again we need some rules laid out. I am going to postpone April's event and resume it in May. Thank you for understanding and I know we are probably going to miss a wonder day weather wise but to insure that this is a long term home for us it is necessary. "

Hmm, I can probably make this one too. I guess I better wash the car tomorrow. It is still a mess from the Evo Shootout.

With AJ and myself going down to the Shootout in ATL. Whoever from CCR is going to attend, please try and get people to come out to the Thursday Night Event at Metrolina. Always a good starter event, a Thursday Event is how I got involved in autocross.

But seriously I can't think of a single case where it hasn't been the first Saturday. People may have gathered there on the 31st, but the official event is always 1st Saturday.
