Here's a list of the beaches in Newport, RI. Let's wait from 55fanatic as to which one it's gonna be this time.

Easton's Beach is pretty nice with a decent sized parking lot, only like $5-8 to park. Nice waves on the beach too but watch out for the seaweed haha!

I think we should just have it at the same place as last year. It was free and had plenty of room. Also had a nice view. I'm sure Pete will agree. I don't even remeber what the place was called. I'm sure Pete will give the address soon.

Count me in...

Hey guys, just plugged back into the forums after being away for work and travel. Can I still join in? It would be me and my E55, plus whatever snacks, drinks still needed.

Thanks,

If I have the car back on the road, count me in; tentatively I guess.
Else, maybe I'll bring the SL. (?)

thanks for the compliment. and...no... I don't ever plan on selling it unless someone offers me a rediculous sum of money. Just got done with 4 months of restoration. I got alot of blood, sweat and tears in this baby. not to mention, $$$.
It appears to be faster than it should be after talking with some benz enthusiasts. I have to do some digging to find out why. They tell me it shouldn't be pulling 0-60 mph in 6.4 secs. so, it must have had some work done to it before I got the car. Not really sure what to look at first. the cams looked stock when I had the valve covers off last time. maybe it had some headwork done or maybe someone stroked it. I'll let ya know what I come up with though. It has me very curious now.

Should I be insulted then that I'm not in the list...? just kidding! You got it right. I can't confirm 'till I get the replacement parts and get'm on the car.

I really shouldn't take the SL; in the year I owned it, timing chain went from silent a year ago to screaming for a few seconds on start-up; right head's leaking oil something fierce on the right and I'm sure I'm losing compression; at least once a tank it inexplicably shuts down on me no matter stopped or cranking down the road, and I have to hope I can coast somewhere and stop for a bit before it'll restart... the list goes on ... and on. hopefully the C will be back in order within the month.

gotta figure out if I should make this an outing with the wifie, (then it begs the question what about the 3 dogs?)... Solo is always dangerous for me; dunno how to act my age when left to my own devices.... ...So anyone taking a significant other?
