JJLL L9: Master Cheap A$$ Member sinceJun 2004 Posts4,470 Reputation 609 Followers 1 + Give Rep	May I suggest that we also include events that are moderately priced? (in addition to totally free ones). I remember some BMW or Lexus event back a few year ago was $40 for 2 hours or something... IMO that's well worth the $$$.

johnnycomelater City Slicker Member sinceSep 2003 Posts993 Reputation 150 Followers 0 + Give Rep	Nice of someone to round up all the links. A couple appear to be dead or inactive at this time, Subaru, Mazda revitup, but did get registered to be notified for GM's GrabTheKeys, and the BMW one is right around the corner, registration starts the 28th of this month.

Just because you couldn't find an event that worked for you, or that would let you in LMAO

, doesn't mean it's a bad post. It means you're a bad person.

Nope I called got a code and it worked instantly online.

Thanks for the response. I called and they gave me 1 wrong letter in the code. I just entered the code and registered. Awesome! Repped to both sodehu and daveamoose.

Now, on to the Mercedes AMG Performance Tour.

After checking out the Laguna Seca calendar and not seeing anything on there that would give away when and if Mercedes AMG planned on going to Laguna Seca, I decided to call Laguna Seca. The first lady said she thinks it might be in November, but she does not have an actual up to date schedule yet, she then said perhaps the lady who rents out the track knows more. I left her a message and just received a voicemail message. First she mentioned the Skip Barber AMG training class and then said, you are probably calling about the AMG event that Mercedes is putting on. She said it is scheduled for November 13th thru Nov 21st!!!!

keep the week free guys and gals in the NORCAL area.
