We've added some great vintage wheels, put a bunch of terrific events on the calendar for you to enjoy and even made it in the coveted Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue.  There's lots to cover, so start reading and make sure to RSVP to the events you want to be a part of. 

Wheels

96 Porsche 911 C4S - The 993-shaped Porsche is considered by auto purists as one of the greatest and most beautiful cars ever built.  We couldn't agree more, so meet the fleet's second.  Seeing we have two, let's call this one Annabelle to cut down on the confusion.  She's been lovingly maintained and outfitted with a custom stainless exhaust kit and a rock solid set of Bilstein coil-overs to give you that extra bit of grip in the bendys.  She's a band 5 so call Pearse to get in the driver's seat.

69 MGC - We're lucky enough to be petrosexuals with day jobs to satisfy our needs, but every now and then, we get a car that sends even our jaded selves up the Sawmill shifting and laughing.  This car is the latest to do it.  Meet our new MGC - one of 900 in the world.  She might be older than you, but get a mile under your belt and you'd swear she just rolled off the assembly line.  Its combination of lightweight construction and straight six (this ain't no four-banger) motor comes together for some fantastic English motoring.  Drop the top and get rollin'.  This car is a band 3.

73 Triumph TR-6 - If the MGC wasn't enough for you, we've picked up the other quintessential English 6-cylinder roadster.  At the core, this car is a racer and the last of the great two-seat sportscars from the UK's golden age of motoring.  Since the first one rolled out of the factory, the TR-6 has been stripped and raced around the world, so make sure to book this one and see just why it's remained one of the best-looking and best-performing roadsters ever.

Tesla Roadster - For a limited amount of time starting this week, Classic Car Club will have a radiant red Tesla for members to drive and see just how much power a completely electric car can put down for themselves.  Given the rarity and special circumstances of this car, we will be letting it out for weekday band 8 bookings.  If you would like to see how awesome it is, please call Pearse to be put on the list and he will assign an afternoon testdrive to you.

05 Volvo XC 90 - It has seven seats and it's not red!  That separates it from the other new rides, as well as its big V8 motor and its ability to get you and six of your friends to the slopes.  If you need to move people in style or just want to drive in comfort, this is the one for you.  Rated as a band 4.

Events

Enduro Karting - Tomorrow night marks our monthly two-hour endurance kart race at GPNY.  There are a few spots left, so if you want to push your driving skills to the limit around the best kart racing track in the country, make sure to RSVP with Jeannette.  Karting is $225 per person, dinner included.  We leave CCC at 6pm.

Fashionweek @ CCC - Last night Twinkle By Wenlan rocked  CCC with their latest designs.  Our cars have never been better-accessorized.

Annual Poker Night @ CCC, March 11 - Once again we've teamed up with Tour GCX and Attica to put together a great poker tournament to benefit the Sunflower Children charity.  Buy in is $250, cigars and drinks are on the house and there will be great prizes for the top performers.  Table space is limited to RSVP here

Freakatorium with CCC and Duncan Quinn, April 3-5 - If you haven't been on a Freakatorium weekend yet, do try to make this one.  Once again, we'll be heading up to our hideaway, century-old bordello in the super cars for a weekend of incredible driving by day and absolute indulgence by night.  Dinner prepared by Mario Carbone, wines provided by Christe's and entertainment supplied by the most sinful troop of dancers you've ever laid eye on.  This is an unforgettable, all-inclusive weekend for $5,000/$7,000 for couples or use 180 CCC/60 CFC points to save $1,000 off the weekend.  RSVP with Jeannette

24-Hour of LeMons: South Carolina, Apri 4-5 -  Last time we raced LeMons, Classic Car Club's ferocious VW Golf won the award for fastest German car on the track.  Unfortunately our love of beer and aggressive driving earned us enough penalties to keep us out of first place.  This time, however, we're taking the the top step on the podium.  We will also have our luxury RV and private chef on hand so your 24-hour redneck racing experience will still be couture.  It's too much fun to miss, so if you want to race or attend, RSVP with Jeannette.  $1,900 to race, $500 to wrench.

Autogasm Super Car Driving Day, April 15 - Here's your chance to sample six super cars, including the Nissan GT-R, Ford GT, Ferrari F430, Lambo Gallardo and a few other exotics, on a full day of driving through the beautiful and challenging Bear Mountain region.  Drivers will leave Classic Car Club at 10am and spend the day behind the wheel of each of these cars to see what a collective 3,000bhp feels like under your foot.  A catered lunch will be served overlooking the Hudson River halfway through and a cocktail hour will wrap the day up back at Classic Car Club.  Twelve seats are available, so if you want to drive, RSVP with Jeannette.  The day costs $800 or members are welcome to use 150 CCC points.

Rally To Hell: Italy, May 21-25 - If you need an explination of what our rallies are like, think of getting off the plane in Heathrow, being handed a grenade with the pin pulled and holding it for four days.   This is our fourth Rally To Hell and this time we're taking on the most challenging and spectacular driving roads (and bars) the world has to offer, including the legendary Stelvio Pass.  Your passport will rack up English, French, Sweedish and Italian stamps while your brain processes the most explosive fun you've ever had.  All-inclusive seats are limited and priced at $5,000.

Golden Pavilion Villa, Tortola - If you need to escape to a place further than our wheels can take you, we at CCC suggest Golden Pavilion Villa in Tortola, BVI.  As a Classic Car Club member, you're invited to experience all the fun and amenities the island and villa has to offer, all at 30 percent off published prices.   Just tell them you're a member upon booking.
