no next time we have to do a NICE AIR CONDITIONED place like fudruckers, joe's crabshack or something. i am old, fat, losing my hair and dislike the heat...did i mention my head is sunburned?

it was a great time. it was nice to see a 500e, 2 ce's and a bunch of e's from different years.

btw per the meet i did what we discussed and have confirmation of the items we discussed in hand. should be up by the end of the week.

also for those that needed that website i mentioned its www.cafepress.com

please send me a pm that you were at the meet so i can finish up what i commited to at the meet.
the subj: hey eric saw u at the meet.

anyhow it was a pleasure meeting chris, alon (sp), tony and matt. I am super BAD with names i am sorry i forgot your name. as we get older the memory is 1st to go. btw i have always sucked at names (alon good idea on the name tags).

Its all good. if we do another outdoor one, we should bring a tent and a misting thingy to keep things cool. the only problem is the heat in the cars after being beaten on by the sun for a few hours....

my car was running at 82C with ac on. maybe that was because i wasn't going that fast. only around 60 mph. for a while on the 10 it was stop and go for a while. hopefully i can get there on time next time so i can be there in time for the show and tell.

hey hey guys...I'd just like to say this first meet was in my opinion an success. I didn't expect so many people to come out especially with a few with some nice W124's. It was a pleasure to finally meet everyone behind the screen. The only down side was the heat! I couldn't believe how hot it was and the day before I was in the heat in Fontana!!! with no shade! Anyhows, I like the ideas people mentioned about the future meets, especially the BBQ's and perhaps meeting at a restaurant. We could do what others did in the past and meet at the Rosebowl, semi the same distance and then we can go eat at Fuddruckers afterwards. A good tradition! All in all, it was nice seeing everyone and their cars, especially Ramil's 500E, Alons, Erics and Matts and all of you other guys of course.

LnkPrkSoldier, sorry I forgot to let you drive in my car. haha you should of reminded me.

X03, hope you liked taking my car out for a spin, if you want more information about the suspension and TWS, let me know.

Anyways, I'm working on the pictures right now. Hang on!

Here are the pictures, wow...this took FOREVER to upload. Enjoy them! Some of them came out pretty good. It was waaaay to sunny, the sun got in the way of some of the photos by reflecting off the car so it was kind of hard to get it out of the way in some shots. Enjoy the pictures nonetheless though.

Nice meeting you today pare! Even though I didn't go to the W124 meet I still had a chance to see this guy's awesome beast of a car later during the day! I hope your temporary fix worked and you got home!

Nice to meet Matt too! My first time to see a 300E with a spoiler.

Alright, well I know most of you have already seen these pics on the other forums, but might as well post them again. So here are the pics that my friend took at the meet. Sorry I didnt' do this sooner, but this is finals week and I dont have much time to browse the forums as much

And ChrisDPham thanks for letting me take your car for a ride your suspension really works well. I might hold off on getting the springs and shocks until I get some rims first and then lower it. All in due time

Melvin,

No problem man. I should of done the samething and got wheels at the same time like you're planning to, but deciding which wheels to get is such a pain. Have you decided on any yet?

Let me know when you plan to go to TWS.

Haven't really decided on anything yet, maybe the replica amg monoblock?
