SLR, CLK-DTM, and SMARTs
the half-dozen 190SLs and all other 1950-1977 also get front row parking.
Weirdos like the MB Sprinter, my Coupe, Kleeman beast, etc also up front.

If we can get all the C-Class Coupes to park together that would be swell, including PSHEK's. Anyway, PM me or e-Mail me to sort out the parking details.

Thanks for signing up.... See the 2 Mars Red Girls tomorrow !!

Check the CARAVAN threads, to see which one is nearest you.
Although, not much in O.C., except that a few of the caravans are meeting up at the IRVINE SPECTRUM (south TARGET lot) at 11 AM, and then all running together to TiaJuanas from there...

Yeah, sorry. I honestly don't know. I told him there really wasn't a set time to show and leave. He's doing some side-work for someone and he said if the guy didn't call or show up he'd be down real quick.

guests are OK, as long as they're not driving/riding in anything other than an MB.

Dude that brewery in Laguna closed down The waitresses looked fairly punctureable tonight but that was after a few- the same talent should be there in the noon hours.

The alcohol lineup is as follows:

Beer. Enough said.

Vic,
we'll talk more about it tomorrow, but the MBCA San Diego Section is having a Beer Rally on February 9th (Friday) throughout 3 local SD breweries.

We are starting at the VIEJAS Casino, just to meet up, and then hitting the ALPINE Brewery, where there's this really good Vanilla flavored beer... and from there we're touring to Linda Vista to the BALLAST POINT Brewery, where there's good local ales & stouts, and then we head to North County SD and ending up at the STONE Brewery in Escondido, with a tour of their vats, and a late lunch.

You and anyone else is more than welcome to attend and rally !!!
