That's all, there wasn't much to picture, it would have been better if i would have taken my video camera too, so i could've recorded the AMG' flying thru the course.

Yes, they do. I regret not bringing mine, it's perfect for recording the C32's going around the cones!!!

The M3 and a C32 went head to head for a 0 - 100 - 0 showdown.
The M3 crashed thru a paper barrier proving the AMG got to a hundred faster and stopped quicker than the BMW.
They were both really moving in the space set up in the parking lot.

It happened about 1:30 on Sunday. I was there at noon and left just after the matchup.
I was outside when they must have made an anouncement that carried everywhere because people were piling out of the tent to see it. I guess they didn't make too many runs.

When test driving the regular c-class's, not the C32, do the pro drivers accompany you in the test drive around the course?
Did they hand out free stuff like keychains or t-shirts?

I didn't go on the other courses, but i'm almost sure that they have a pro driver. Yes the give out a little gift bag with an MB cap, that and the golf ***** are the only things worth anything in it. You have to fill out a survey to get it.
