Well, Zack, since you know me well, already, and I always try to come to these, I guess this time you can comne to me on one knee, instead of two, and ask!!! LOL..

Thanks for the work, I will check into it.

For those wondering, these are great fun, and are heavily laden with gas and diesel W126ers usually, but also quite heavy on W123 and W124 cars too.

Lots of fun, always some from SO Cal that come, lots of mercedes talk and information exchanged, faces put to names, VERY POPULAR event...

Teutone,
You really need to come on one of these diesel drives. I realize this one is too close to the GTG for Ross, but they are a lot of fun.

I'm hoping I can make both the GTG and the Diesel Drive, but I may have to opt for one or the other. If that has to be the case then I'll opt for the Ross GTG as it's closer.
