Default Test Drive M-B C class, may include AMG model

[B]Just in case anyone is interested in test driving some Mercedes Benz C-class cars (supposedly includes the AMG c32) in August, here is a link to the event. There should still be times available on Friday and Snday (Saturday is pretty much booked solid).

I'm signed up for the 10 to 12 slot on Sunday.

It'd be cool to have a bunch of us in the same group.

I don't expect them to be taking times, but we can do it ourselves with a stopwatch.

If you've never done one, common car autocrosses are a real kick. Everybody drives the same car, so the difference in the times go straight to driver skill and perfomance.

During the last MB test drive event I went to (for the new E class) they didn't let you turn off traction control and if you drove hit any cones, they kicked you out. They were also warning people not to drive the cars too hard.

I hope this one is a little more fun.
