FBCC Calendar
We are a car club that loves to get together and loves to drive our cars. Our main form of scheduling events is our Google Group Email Chain that you will be joined into when you become a member. Our events are very spontaneous so check this schedule often.
There are four sections to this page
1) Upcoming Events
2) Regular Events like monthly meetings
3) Non FBCC Events we attend as a club
4) Past Events
If you are a non member who would like to join us on one of our drives to check us out please do so. All are welcome. Contact Us and we will get you details. Let us know which drive(s) you are interested in.
Below is our Events Calendar so you can see items at a glance. Details for the events are further down the page. Much of what we do is spontaneous and shows up on our calendar within a few days of the actual event.

January 2026 Session. In June of last year we had a session conducted by Tom Eicher on how to repair paint chips . Going a bit beyond fixing chips, Nathan Cash has volunteered to show us how Paintless dent removal can be done. Nathan’s daily driver is a red Mini and he noticed small dents magically appearing on the car. He decided that he would learn how to repair those small dents and has offered to show us how at the January session using a recent dent on his red Mini.
