MBCA Concours show in Potomac, MD

The Mercedes-Benz D.C. club section is holding their annual Concours show Sunday August 21st. Please visit their website: www.gws-mbca.org for more info. The D.C. crew should plan on making it out and maybe caravaning over together.

Picts from the event

Man, the MBCA local section website is not to active.

I thought I'd post these here for you guys to view.

Is this the best website for the GWS area?

Enjoy & it was nice meeting everyone.

Yeah their site is pretty weak. Thanks for the pictures though, they are great.

Don't drive too slow

Looks like there was lots of older cars (and people). I heard if some of us would have entered the street contest we could've won

I thought about reving the engine as I left, but thought that would be bad form.

I've never been to another MBCA event so I don't know how this demographic compares to other events. Though, I'd agree, there wasn't a big "younger crowd".

Chappy, I know that's the local website. They have no forum. Thanks for posting though.

It's the GWS forum on the MBCA forum site that I was talking about.

I guess I'm used to the Ferrarichat site. The guys on that site reply faster then 911.

Glad you liked the shots.

Misunderstood, sorry. I see your point.

FWIW, the only way that demographics are going to change is if people join and participate...I've met some great folks of all ages in 10+ years as as member of MBCA (I joined when I was 29).

IMO, the MBCA is the absolute best organization for the Mercedes-Benz enthusiast...young or not-so-young. There are numerous active volunteers who contribute countless hours for the enjoyment of the other members and guests. Nobody else but the MBCA has put on a great variety of events that have broad interest and appeal (track events, concours, social events, tech sessions, etc.)

Can you tell I still enjoy the club after all this time?
