Old School Imports Meet

August 25, 2009 By Mike Bumbeck

santa_clara_mazdaIt’s that time on the calendar where various third Wednesdays or last Thursdays mean there’s a reason to fire up that old bucket and drive it out and meet up. This Thursday the 27th, 2009 marks the third roll-in of the NorCal SoBay Old School Import faithful in Santa Clara, California. The gathering runs from 7PM until whenever. There is no admission fee other than driving in with a BMW 2002, Mazda Rx-3, Datsun 710, or even Renault 16. The meet originators would like to keep this casual meet casual. That means no burnouts or other event-ruining behavior is allowed. Wednesday night drag races and accompanying burnout bonanza can be found here.

WHAT: Nor Cal’s South Bay Old School Import Meet
WHERE: 3605 El Camino Real Santa Clara, CA
WHEN: Thursday 8/27 @ 7pm
WHY: Because you dig the Old Schools

Filed Under: Eventage, Feature Tagged With: car show, Datsun, events, Mazda, old school. BMW, Renault
