Hey everybody. I thought you all might enjoy this, seeing as we are a site of Automotive Enthusiasts. Today there was a Meet/Show at Griot's Garage on 38th St in Tacoma WA, called Caffeine & Gasoline™. The Weather was AMAZING. Couldn't beat it. 65 and Sunny all morning. A rare event in the PNW. The event is open to all who want to come, and you can bring your stock 94 Civic Hatch, or your Ferrari. All are welcome and that brings quite a diverse coalescence of automobiles from all over the PNW. Without further ado, enjoy the pix! Mine of course will be the first one shown LOL.

^New Shelby GT500. If you see one on the streets, just mind your business. Don't try to race it. You will *BLEEP* off the driver, and you will likely lose...horribly.
