Here is one, you must of raced after I left. It was a VERY good turnout, considering the weather early on.

I expected to see maybe five or so cars, I was surprised by the turnout.

What was the final tally of people & cars that showed up?

My 85 300D turbo won against that awsome euro 84 300D 5 speed non turbo. We all had an argument going wich would be faster, and we decided to prove it!

I think we got about 15 cars total, another 2 or 4 came after you left.

After letting out that big puff of smoke, I made it all the way home!!! Looks like I need to do some work.

I really enjoyed the day, even when it was rainning. This was a GREAT idea. I think we should plan on round two sometime in the Spring.

I picked up several good bits of information and will be tinkering on my car tomorrow.

Thanks for the info guys!!!

Linda and I both had a good time. It was great meeting you all in person. If Linda would have known there would be a drag race she would have stayed and kick some a__. Let's do it again in spring.

How long did you guys stay after I left? It was a lot of fun and a great park to meet.

Thanks to whoever (I forgot your name) told me to take I-287 back to NY. I think it saved me a lot of time.

Jay,

Thanks for the invitation. If things were to fall in place and I can get "ole' Silver" back on the road by then, I might just shock everyone and come up there.

There's a lot of water to go under the bridge between now and then, but who knows.

MB Diesels Forever,

I'm hoping that ole silver is the Euro 240D!
