Not sure who else gets the "Bring a Trailer" email report, but check this out. Evidently they are also in Paso Robles this weekend with a bunch of rare old cars. I can't tell exactly where, but it appears to be some kind of hotel or something if I look at the pictures closely.

April 7, 2011 We are Live From the 2011 Targa California! We are back in Paso Robles, California for our third annual Targa California, and we are excited for this event to kick-off yet another season of BaT driving events. A new experience compared to the last two sunny Targas has been the cold, with the crowd that came north from SoCal today faced rain and hail along their trip. The Friday run looks to be dry and we will be featuring our favorite roads, cars, and stories right here on BaT. Check out the pics below and stay tuned for more!
I wish everyone a safe trip and a wonderful time!

We've arrived in Atascadero. We actually hit a snowstorm coming over the top on 41! The last 20 miles or so of 41 was a spectacular drive! We're in a beautiful room, and it just stopped hailing!! (And my car is parked out on the street). <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/sad.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

I'm going to try to be at the Gaviota rest stop, but don't
wait for me. If I'm not there I'll meet everyone in Paso.

Oh my god, someone had the nerve to park Corvettes in front of the lineup, what scandal, how disrespectful...they should be drawn and quartered, and suspended indefinately from PCA and any further activities involving either 968's OR wine....<img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/wink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />
Lots more to come,

While I was down in Paso with you all, there was an accident at Longevity Wines where I work. A full barrel of came of the top of the barrel stack and struck the winemaker in the head. He is extremely lucky that it didn't kill him outright. I found about this as I arrived home this evening. Just waiting for an update on his condition. The injuries are not life threatening, but he probably has a long recover period ahead of him. This unfortunate accident is going to dump he entire winemaking in my hands until Phil recovers.
