Hey Bliss nothing has changed...the final details are the same as before...

What: Benz, BMW, Audi, Porsche etc Get Together
Where: Pasadena Rosebowl Parking Lot K
Time: 10:30am
Schedule: Basically we all try to meet up at around 10:30ish at the parking lot and then talk and check out each others cars and stuff. Then leave around 11:30am-12:00p.m. or so to get lunch and such. Then discuss what everyone wants to do after that. Pls no fancy driving or doing burnouts and drive safely.

The date is May 8th

The time has been moved to 10:30 for the "non-early birds" Hopefully this will make it easier for people to get ready and come out. I am hopin this will be a good meet.

There are 2 caravan points. One from Calstar Motors in Glendale that is leavin at 10 sharp and another at the Westlake Promenade theaters leavin at 9:05 sharp... Hope to see you there buddy...

It was a great turnout. I have to thank each and every one of you who came out!~! Thank you. I wish we had more people for the lunch afterwards but I guess not. Other then that I would like to think James and Taison for all the help along with the West Caravan team. Thank you. Now we have to set up a track day. If you are interested post up so we could get a tentative date up and running. Knowing some of you guys and the crazy drivin ya'll do, well have a safe and fun time at the track running each other. POST UP!~!

Nice to see all the nice cars out today.

Only gripe is that JamE55 just kept refusing to let me borrow his keys...

Hey Adam. I noticed your car but didn't know who you were. Love them 847Rs.

Posted some pix here. Too lazy to repost them again. Time for a nap!

Great meeting guys! Thanks to Taison (t-bone) and Sun (Benzoboi) for setting up this meet. Great turnout! But for me the best part was the wild and crazy caravan from glendale going to the rosebowl. It was pretty crazy but i must admit seeing the SL55 and CL500 battle it out on the fwy made me . Nice to see you again Kenny and your 547R's. Sorry i didn't give you the keys but maybe next time. My goal and magic word now is 14psi! Right Sunny D! Oh and nice meeting you Adam (awiner). Sorry if i drooled over too much on your HRE's! Vic i have sum pics of you on the fwy and i think you dropped your suspension somewhere along the caravan. Jimbo glad you were able to keep up with us.
