Sorry for posting here, but this forum gets much more eye traffic than the "Events and Gatherings" forum.

I travel all over the U.S. with my job, and I have been able to meet up with mayber 30-40 mercedesshop.com forum members over the past several years.

The last time I was in Atlanta, I met up with El Presidente. We got a private tour of the MB Autowerks shop by none other than Donnie Drummonds and The Webmaster. Donnie even took me for a ride in his ultra-fast, turbocharged 190E 2.3-16 valve.

I will be in Atlanta on business, and have this Saturday, October the 23rd available for dinner.

It would be fun to have a little GTG and discuss "war stories" of our experiences with our cars.

I am staying at the Marriott Atlanta Northwest, 200 Interstate North Parkway, Atlanta, GA 30339. Tel: 770-952-7900.

We can eat at the hotel or some place nearby.

Please respond here:

Meet for dinner in Atlanta.....?

I cannot go but I encourage everyone in GA to try to go. At a Dallas meeting someone drove 280 miles from Houston!

Come on Eric, it's only about a thousand miles to Atlanta. I'll bet your 300E would get you there in a days drive!

Wish I could make it, but I have the driveshaft out of my 300E.

Paul, enjoy the trip and be safe.

Have a great day,

Due to Hurricane Ivan, the business meeting I was to attend has been moved to the weekend of October 23rd.

I'll repost again at that time.

The NOPI Bikini Contest (and car show) are scheduled for this Saturday the 18th in Atlanta. Good thing you didn't have to compete with that!! Of course Ivan may trash that too. One of my friends lives near Hampton, Ga. and I just heard that he and his family were holed up in a closet due to tornadoes in the area!!

Heh... my drive hime was pretty exciting... gusts up to 40 knots just a little while ago, but no trees down or major damage at my house. Mercedes has been snug in the garage all day though.
