Caravan to the big SoCal GTG anybody?

Hey all!

Just wondering if anybody would be interested in doing a caravan going to the anaheim big SoCat GTG? Was thinking we could meet up in Glendale Calstar MB dealer. If anybody is from that area and would like to caravan pls let me know or put your name down.

Thanks!

Hi there,
What time are you meeting up at Calstar? We'd love to join you as Wolf says he'd rather not rable rouse with the audi's and bmw's more than he has to.
