[MBZ] AMG diesel don't laugh

No, but I love it!  That engine work is way out of my league, but I know 
enough that what I'm looking at poses a million questions.

South Lindbergh?  OMG I remember doing that in high school a couple times!  
Don't think we got the full benefit of it though, just seemed like a big 
traffic jam in a parking lot to me, did witness a goober 5 mph wreck there 
once though.  I live sooo close to there, cut through all the time.  I don't 
think they do that anymore, especially since they took the theater out.

But you're right.  Hell, I'd love to blow some minds at a national MBCA 
autocross event!  Because smoking brand new AMGs with a 21+ year old diesel 
staion wagon would be so very, very wrong!

If you see the latest MB Classic mag, there's a photo of an Italian at MB 
Classic days held in Salzburg who blew some minds with his stock 240TD, 
simply by driving with his huge Italian cahonies.  I saw some pretty gutsy 
driving when I was in Rome.

Thanks for the memory flashback!

Vince
