NY AMG event!
Just got back from an AMG event in upstate NY where I got to drive a C63, E63, CLS63, and a SL63 on a track. Wow, what an experience! The C63 was the first one I drove because I've always wanted to feel the difference with mine and that one. That thing is amazing! The speedo goes up as if its an rpm gauge! LOL! Then the SL63. That car was the best handing car there in my opinion. Most nimble and also a monster! Next was the CLS63. This car was my favorite overall! Now, I'm talking about the new one with the V8 biturbo. Everything about it was just SWEET!! Comfort, POWER, handling, all around great car! Last but not least was the E63. By this time I was somewhat comfortable with the track so I might've had the most fun in this one. Beat the **** out of it!! Hit around 120mph on a short straight like nothing!! Keep your eyes open for the next one. Its free and a whole lot of fun!!

Dang. That sounds like a blast. I take it that the event was put on by MB? Any links where I can grab some info on it?
