I have a big place everyone can meet, And we wont have to meet until around 9 or 10 am...... After everyone meets up we can all take a cruise there together. There are also places to meet up and eat out there. just my $.02, I just know there are people like me that are really lazy for mornings.... But im down either way.
Carlsbad sounds good!

Yo James we have to change the date. We can't do it the 24th cause I will be in San Mateo for HIN. How does April 3rd sound? I will look into the Carlsbad raceway. At the current moment we will meet at the Rose Bowl parking lot K as it was stated by t-bone and will go for a drive to get some food from there. Then we will chit chat, take pics and what not. Or we could take the pics first because it'll be easier and then go eat. From there the people interested in going to the track will head over either california raceway or carlsbad. I will look into carlsbad and see wassup. Anyone else want to give opinion's on either fontana or carlsbad? Come on people I want your input so we can all try to get something going on that'll work for not jus a few people but the general group. I want to get all of mbworld on this. Or at least everyone who can no matter what year or make of mercedes you drive. Once the track deal has been resolved I will invite some of the audi and bimmer fellows too. Any thoughts on that?

I can see we're already starting to have problems on deciding what date to do this event. Since some people can't go on 3 or 4 or 10 or 11 or even 24/25th how about May 1st which is saturday? Does this sound good for everyone? I know it's a bit far away but at least hopefully everyone will be able to make it. Guys what do you think of this date? Was thinking we can do this and then meet up around 8ish at the Pasadena Rosebowl parking lot and then decide from there. Either that or how about March 27th which is saturday?? That's like next week.

Again what do you guys think of this?

All this talk about April, May, and next year....just make it THIS MONTH! Serious, lots of things happen in May(Weddings, parties etc) so people are still going to be probably even MORE occupied. Just a suggestion
