San Diego ROLLING British Car Day
(PAST) Sunday April 14th, 2024
The Driving Event
REGISTRATION OPENING SOON
Every Year we have what we call a Rolling British Car Day (RBCD), which is a chance for British car owners to enjoy driving their cars on some of San Diego’s finest Back roads.
Instead of the usual car shows, where sparkling, polished cars are rolled out on the grass for all to admire, this event is about taking your cherished car out to enjoy doing what it was designed for - DRIVING whether yours is a show car or a “diamond in the rough” with patina earned over the years.
The premise of the rolling car day is based on a philosophy that leads to a happy life, and that is …. it’s more about the journey than the destination. To this end, we have selected a destination ideal for a picnic. We have selected a couple of good routes to get there on several scenic roads. To make it available to as many local British car enthusiasts as possible, we usually select two starting points, one in the North of San Diego and another in the South.
This year the Northern Route starts from the Carlsbad Windmill and the Southern Route starts in El Cajon. Although participants can register on-line, there’s no longer a way to pay the $20 entry fee on-line, so all drivers will be required to bring CASH to their selected start point where each driver will be provided with written route instructions.
This drive is intended as a leisurely cruise, with no prizes for arriving first, so it’s not a race.
If you would like to drive your British car on some back-roads with other like-minded car enthusiasts, bring it out at 9:00am on Sunday April 14th and be sure to have a full tank of gas …. and an empty bladder!
The NORTHERN Route starts from the Carlsbad Windmill parking lot (by the Carlsbad Outlets) 890 Palomar Airport Rd., Carlsbad, CA 92011.
The SOUTHERN Route starts form the NW corner of Parkway Plaza parking lot, CA 92020.
