Los Angeles area AMG meet

1:00 PM on the 24th in Pasadena is cool with me. I'm also going to bring a sign-up form for anyone interested in spinning-off the AMG Owner's Club. I know that there are some legality involved due to having to get permission to use AMG-Mercedes Benz logo, but if I can get AMG owners to sign-up, I'll be in a better position to justify support of the club.

My plan is to start the club here in LA area and then get the rest of California to join once everything is clear with AMG-MB. I think it'll be fun. We need to put together a board of directors.

I'm also flying to Deutschland next month. So, I'm planning on possibly meeting with the AMG Owner's club there. I think they're pretty open on helping to get US AMG owner's club started.

See you all...

I am beginning to wonder if the Ralphs parking lot will be big enough. We may need a bigger area.

Any suggestions for places in the Pasadena area? Someone suggested the parking lot at PCC. How do you work that out with the security people there? I'll also look into the parking lots at Caltech.

Yes... that's the address.

It seems like rain may be in the forecast. If it rains I think we may have to postpone it. But let's just keep watching the weather forecast and see as the day approaches.

Any drive suggestions yet?

I will be out of town, but I thought I'de post my 2cents. I happened to be driving Protrero rd at about 7am on a Saturday a few weeks ago (dont ask why) and I saw a large caravan of porsches. The cops actually escorted them and I would assume shut down the road for their brief jaunt. It MIGHT be worth asking the local dept for some sort of clearance. The worst they could do is laugh.

For refference: It takes a standard chp cruiser more than 9 seconds to reach 60

Well, a drive isn't necessary. Even a drive down Colorado Blvd. would be cool with me. Or a ride down the twisty 110 Fwy would be nice.

Yes, 1pm is the time.

However, it looks like RAIN is headed our way though.

So we may need to postpone it.

Do any of the other participants have any thoughts on this?
