Amazing Race fans---

For any fans of the Amazing Race, I read that Mercedes is provided all of the transportation for the show which starts tomorrow(Feb. 28, 9 PM). The contestants drive C's. I remember on a couple of seasons ago they drove brand new C230k's from the starting point to the airport,hopefully this time it's more than that. Always funny to see how people cant deal with the smart key

I just downloaded the Google Video of the first episode and they're C280 4matics. You can really hear the engines revving w/ the women driver's

I saw it too. They also used MLs a couple of seasons ago.

I wonder whatever happened to the GMC sponsorship.

The only time I ever watched that show was when they got in the MLs to drive to the airport and the one ML's gate wouldn't stay shut! I hope they go over the new cars a little better than that!!

A little off the topic, but before that season I was on a plane to Germany with some of the people from that show...don't remember specifics as it was a few years ago, but interesting nevertheless.
