Thumbs up

I can see where you are coming from...kinda.
It's not your cup a tea. You want conveinience.
I'm near a track but it's not the same. I like going to the track but it isn't R&G.
Why is Shelby events just for Shelby cars? Kit cars or replicas deserves a Nationals too. Traveling to this event is part of the adventure. I don't bonzi run to get there. I enjoy the trip. I usually stop and visit along the way there or going back home. If it is a financial thing I can understand that too.
The economy has a lot of folks holding back. I don't
blame anyone for those reasons.
There are hundreds of guys that go to Carlisle to get an idea as to what they may want to build. Heck, at R&G you can see them in action.
I have been going there for a long time and I sure
don't go just for a chance at a trophy. It's damn nice to get one but in reality it's about the people.
We seem to do pretty good in the Charity department too. We raised a boat load of bucks for operation comfort for the wounded warriors. I would go just for that.

Just my 2 cents worth.
