Cool MB pictures are posted of this past weekend's OC Tour

OC Tour link
The pictures are posted for you to check out at the link above.

This was an awesome event ! Ask anyone who was there....
Long, winding, curvy roads at speeds of 90 - 120 mph !!!

except that white convertible BMW at the tail end, it think he maxed out at 60...

anyway, if you weren't there, you completely missed out on some great driving fun !! Come out next year and flex your Benz ! Some great AMG models out there too, and talk with fellow mod freaks like me !

I drove from San Diego to O.C. and I'm not going to miss it next year either !

All you other C-Classers who showed up, pipe in on this thread and let everyone know how much fun we had !!


See you around the corner !!

Driving through that canyon was the best part of the tour. I looked over and saw a sign that said speed limit 25, then looked down at my speedometer and I was in the triple digits.

After the canyon, when we got on Jamboree it was crazy, all the revving engines and blow off valves going off in unison.

all you need to do is organize one if you want. ask around and see who in your area would be interested in attending such an event.

it was a great event. the cruise was the best part, especially the long curvey back roads, perfect for BIX.

that little white BMW didnt do to bad considering, he showed up at each waypoint, im still trying to figure out how i got behind the 190E.
