Anyone plans to meet in DC area this coming weekend (8/13 or 8/14)?

I'm in DE for business trip.... and man, Wilmington is a boring place. Plan to go to DC for some sightseeing on Sat-Sun (8/13-8/14). Will stay at St. Regis.

Any members will hold GTG in DC or surroundings this weekend? I don't have the car w/ me (will drive a Ford Escape rental )but will be entertained to join some GTG.

Let me know...

Can you come on friday night? We are havng a meet on friday night about 20-30mins outside of DC. AT least 10 benzes. And then we are rolling to an all euro meet (over 50 cars) followed by an import meet (over 100 cars, mostly ricers though). It will be alot of fun if you can make it.

Where at and what time? I may not be able to, though

Can leave work around 6PM... drive there ~2-2.5 hours (right?)... and then dinner.... Most likely I could stop by around 9-9.30PM. Will it still be going on?

Benz meet is at 7:00PM so you'll miss that part (Most of us if not all of us will head to the euro meet which starts at 8:00PM til around 10 or 11. It is located at 451 Hungerford Drive in Rockville Maryland. Its just a parking lot so keep your eyes peeled. Last time there was a lambo murcielago Some of the benzes that came last week were lowphat (Kleemann CLK430) two other silver clk430's, a 500E, a C320, and a black 300E (all hooked up). This time around there will be more benzes (lowphat cant make it though, he's gonna miss out). So far there are 2 500E's, 3 CLK430's, 2 C320's, E300, 300CE, 1 C32 (maybe a renntech one as well), a C55, maybe a hooked up E55 or 2 (There are plenty in this area: 04E55AMG, M5killer, E55 baller just to name a few). As for other cars theres always tons of M3's and some M5's and all other types of euro's so try to come if you can.
