Rosebowl GTG 3/12/05 **PICS**
This is all I have. I arrived at 2:20 PM, chatted for a while, then proceeded to take a few pics; next thing I know, everybody's getting ready to take off to Fuddrucker's 
I did get some video while we waited on Vic and heading towards Fuddrucker's; I will try to post later after some editing. Unfortunately, I had the the lens cover on "closed" once we got on the freeway, and was trying to juggle steering and taping at the same time--it became downright dangerous--so I basically gave up after that.

It was nice meeting up with you guys for the first time. Alot of nice rides, even though my fossil stood out like a sore thumb among so many modern masterpieces.. Hope to see you guys again next time, let's have more guys come out. On a side note was it just me or something about being a Benz owner gives you more class. While I was there I couldn't help but notice the Beemer & Audi guys acting like A$$'s skirting back n forth , revving through the parking lot.....

Movie time
Just started going through the 20 minutes or so I shot.
So here goes. It's in Mp4 format and if you have quicktime for Windoze or Mac OS it should work. Download and play to your heart's content.
This is me following an E55 and then pulling over behind Lexani's SL600 after everyone had stopped for Vic55.
There will be more soon once I have more time to edit, etc.

Hey, ask Fred, for my age, 41, I dont look half-bad, if your wife/g-f saw me, she would leave you by the time it takes my SL6 to get to 60. :v
MKB replaced everything, pretty much Aero dynamics. I got a lip, quad exhaust (so the SL65/SL55 owners can eat their hearts out when I pull next to them), front and side skirts, exhaust supposedly adds about 40 HP, Im going to dyno soon to know my exact HP-- which can be as high as 535. So yes, I got the exhaust system too.

Beemaze, try to upload the video here at www.yousendit.com.
Its good for sharing video's and what not, but make sure no one kills the links and I think the limit is 25 downloads. which should be good enough.
oh! and thanks for the video.
they have these camera mounts that is a suction and sticks to your window. I bet some of you know what im talking about, but I can't seem where to find it.
