Saturday night was the banquet. Food was actually pretty good. The Marriotte did a very good job of feeding that many people.
Karen Salvaggio was our first speaker. Way back when, I built my second Cobra kit, a FFR MK II. Then I decided to race it. Everyone told me I should pick a different car: Aerodynamics, short wheel base, old technology, etc.
About the same time, I started reading about Karen, and her first car - the blue one. She was racing, and she was successful! That meant it could be done. I ended up winning 6 championships with that Mk II.
Our second speaker was Stacey David. I've been watching him for decades. I learned a LOT of skills from him. And I used those skills to build and repair multiple vehicles.
