Hey all,

For people in, around or close to the Glendale area we are doing a caravan going to the Feb 5th Rose Bowl. We are meeting up at Mercedes Benz Calstar. You can park your car either in front of the dealer or on the side. We'll be meeting up at 1pm and leaving around 1:30ish or a little bit later so we can make a grand entrance . Here's the list of peeps in the caravan.

1. BenzoBoi
2. JamE55
3. Vic55

Anybody else pls copy and paste your name on this list.

Thanks

We always park across the street to Calstar where they park their benz's. The calstar guys don't seem to complain at all. If anything they come over and ask us if they can help us. Then we tell them that we will be leavin soon. The last time we were I think the whole sales department came out to check out our cars...

I think going to the rosebowl we should take 5 to the 210fwy route. The one where we would pass Vision motorsports and then get on the 5 then the 210 so we can have a more spirited driving. What'd you think Sun?

I don't think we are gonna have enough time for the glendale caravan to go from the 5 to the 210 route...I wouldn't mind but that would mean that we have to bump the meetin time even sooner and I don't think that is a good idea IMHO...
