Anyone want to claim the silver W202 with the gray wheels and red calipers? I was wondering what kind of wheels it had? It looks sharp!

That car belongs to D2Technik from benzsport.com, I believe the wheels are Axis Se7evens. 19in.

Nice turn out! I'm sorry I wasn't able to make it. By the way, MBworld.org stickers are being made and we'll send them out to those who want them.

I think that would be great idea Ben. I can now imagine a Kleemann CLK430k doing a 1/4 run and everybody else! lol!

James, I'm not sure if I understand the picture, but it sure is cool looking! Give me an email with how to do all that when you get a chance... BTW, 1 more week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you make a picture for what my car will be like with the Kleemann?

btw, i'm not making fun of the guy! (trust me, i shouldn't talk ) it just looks like either he's about to hurl b/c he ate a lot or he's in disbelief b/c the cake is so huge! i just thought it was a funny pic.

btw, that is a serious get together! i hope there's one when i'm there... but someone's going to have to give me a ride!

Young, that would be me. And I'm looking at that piece of cake wondering what the hell I'm gonna do w/ it. Luckily my buddy dug in and ate a large portion of it, after demolishing one of those huge glasses of calimari and some crab cakes. I had already eaten a huge piece of coconut crusted halibut. Man that was good!

That was a lowly, ONE, piece of cake. How do they expect to satisfy anyone w/ such small servings. hehe


John.





p.s. "big guy"? ouch
