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.

Sorry, it looks like the imagevenue.com server is acting up. So all you get is thumbnails for now until I can figure out where else I can host

Lexani

Thanks for getting my car. Hater. Hahaha, Im just messing around.

beemaze

Lexani,

I do have your car but on video--I was behind you trying to video tape while driving.

Lexani

Oh, I was kidding. But since, you do have it on video, can you post it?

Fast55

Traffic sucked and I was really late, then lost everyone going to fuddruckers!! At least I got a couple pics of Lex's 600 and a few others.

Lexani

And no one believed me.

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.....

wobbles

I did ... and I dare say now a fair few others do too

AMGfan

...and now you can live up to the hype. Looks like you had a good time in Cali...I wish I was there (my uncle lives in Walnut Creek area), but I won't be there till May sans ride. Lexani...was that the car that got harassed?

CDP

beemaze, thanks for the awesome high quality pictures!

I'll be in attendence for the next meet for sure, since this one I had important plans to attend to.

Excuse me but no one?

BTW, is that Kim's blue SLK55? She still has no plates since the last Feb 2005 meet?

Lexani

Yes, it was. Its fine now though, but yeah, it was thE one.

Lexani

Ok, like 3 or 4 members did-- everyone else flammed me. It has stopped, for know anyways. But yes, you were one of the few, who believed me.

Lexani

Ok, you did. Like i said, 3 or 4 members did-- the other felt it neccessary to harrass me. Thanks.

55fanatic

ahem... John you are a liar... I bet you only have 1 SL6... that second one is fake, lol

haha hows it feel now old man to be out of the shadows!!! PS nice car... what did the MKB kit replace? It seems to have not replaced too much of the factory body kit?

And you did MKB exhuast?

CitronC230K_03

yeah that was Kim's SLK55, still with no plates. the GTG had a descent turn out, and as always i had a great time, hanging and talking about MB's. i m pissed i forgot my camera, sorry guys.

beemaze

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.

Prove myslef right, one time-- only to fall into another rumuor. F**K. *sighs*

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.

Lexani

Did you get me on the freeway?

beemaze

Unfortunately, not.

I was trying to open the lens cover and shoot with one hand, drive with the other, keeping my eyes on the road and the viewfinder; by the time I looked up you were in the carpool lane--flying into the horizon....too late


I need to buy an in-car camera harness...

CDP

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.

FThornton666

bah i dont wanna hear any excuse.


While Driving Stick Shift

Nice video right there, i love the sound of your 55.

Also lex if you have problems with your video let me know, i might be able to help.

CDP

wait a minute. A Ferrari with HRE's. Sexy. There was a Ferrari at the meet or was it just a random owner at the light?
