I thought you guys would enjoy this.....its my 2006 SLK 350 vs 1999 CLK 430

YouTube - 06 SLK350 vs 99 CLK430 Part 1

YouTube - 06 SLK350 VS 99 CLK430 Part 3

YouTube - 06 SLK350 VS 99 CLK430 Part 2
By the way the driver of the CLK 430 is a buddy of mine from the mymbonline.com forum, we went to a euro meet in canyon country and on the way back we decided to test out our cars.

Well, I opened my mouth to soon about fire season being over. It looks like it could be a crispy winery run. The fires should be out by next month. Here's the latest maps for Cal wildfires. http://activefiremaps.fs.fed.us/acti...hive&rCode=cgb

TheGhost · 10-22-2007

we can still do it dont cancel it till the last second PLEASE!!!

Tslick · 10-22-2007

No plan on canceling. Fun talk about crispy views along the way.

Tslick · 10-23-2007

Press embellishment via the OCregister. Probably Cook's Corner will survive. A lot of local firefighters hang out at that place The route may change and the winery's may change but it still looks like a go.

OC Register...
Cook’s Corner went from being a staging area to endangered Tuesday afternoon. The landmark motorcycle tavern and restaurant was evacuated at approximately 3:30 p.m. as flames swept over the hill in Modjeska Canyon. Residents said firefighters told them to evacuate immediately. “It’s coming toward us,” said Rhonda Palmeri, the tavern’s event coordinator . “We’re getting the food out right now.” - 4:48 p.m.

Edit: laughed when I went back a saw firefiter vs firefighter

AWESOME im looking forward to the drive!

Tslick · 10-30-2007

It looks like SR76 and Mount Palomar will be closed so the route will go from to Tamecula and the wineries.

Eddy, can you check out Cooks Corner to see if they will be open on Saturday. I'm assuming Live Oak and Trabuco Canyon road are now open. If it will be a problem, then lets start thinking of a new meet point.

I shall check in the next day or two and report back.

Is there a chance that SR 76 and Mount Palomar might open in 3-4 days?

Tslick · 10-30-2007

I drove by Cook's Corner this morning. It looks fine.

There was a sign about one block away, stating "Welcome Home, residents only, ID required" but no check point or anything like that. I think the restriction will be lifted very soon. I also called Cook's Corner a few minutes ago and they say they'll be open this Saturday and they're also open right now.

SR76 is open again so I take back my previous post.

Any more recommendations for wineries?...

TheGhost · 10-31-2007

...the R170 will be the pathfinder leading all others

We await for recommendations from Edward and Kandy.
