Big Wedneday: A Car Meet Unlike Any Other

We have all heard the expression, “If you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all.” Now while this adage holds true for Jean-Claude Van Damme movies, it is usually also the case for car meets. When you go to a car meet it is generally a fairly cold experience – people standing near their cars or just walking around looking at other cars.

Habit #2 – Respect the line.
Except for the rare occasion, most canyon road shave 2-way traffic.

Twenty-one is a great number. It is the winning hand in Blackjack and the legal age at which you can buy and consume alcoholic beverages. Twenty-one also happened to be the number of Ferrari Challenge Stradales that assembled last year to set a new record for the most Stradales ever gathered in one place - but twenty-one is so last year. With the success of last year's event, Jon Johnson and Elliot Lim wanted to organize a new meet to honor the release of Maranello's most recent road-going racecar - the F430 Scuderia and Scuderia Spider 16M.
