Thumbs up

I went to one last year held here in Sydney. Awesome day, learnt a great deal about not only Benz, but also how our little driving habits could change the outcomes of many accidents

I was invited by the dealership. I have not been able to find much on the web except a few newspaper articles from '99. I'm guessing that this is something that is limited to dealer invite only (Unlike the C Spot). It is my understanding though that MB does this as a nationwide program. I would contact your dealer about it.

We asked the MBUSA lady, and she said that only two regional managers choose to hold this event each year - one from VA and one from PA. Everybody else is SOL

I was invited to this event a couple years back when it was at Richmond International Raceway, (RIR) and went to VIR last week. VIR is awesome for this - so much better than the short oval at RIR. I made sure my salesman understood my interest in the event .

We got bussed there, which is way more relaxing than driving. All in all it is an awesome event, and well worth the time.
