Probably the first person I want to be at the Fling is..... ME I didn't have a chance to get there last year, and it tore me up to think of the fun I was missing out on.

As a slight variation to your question, the biggest car show in Australia has a manufacturers tech day, where every hour there would be a different manufacturer offering technical advice within their category of expertise.

Engine builders (Levy, Anderson etc) discussing what they build, why they choose certain parts, and answering general engine related questions....

Turnkey builders (DV, Oben, Levy etc)talking a little about the brand that they generally build, and giving advice and answering general qeustions about any pitfalls that they have come across over the years....

David Kee (for example) bringing a disassembled toploader and discussing the best way to assemble a toploader, or best adjust shift linkages....

Painters (DV, SRP, Batman etc) doing a short overview of the pitfalls the average guy might come across when doing initial de-seaming.

I would also dearly love to see a demonstration as seen at KISS, where someone (Tom K?) got his hammer out and bashed a bloody great dint in the alloy bodied kirkham Cobra, then showed how easy it is to repair alloy when you know what you're doing.

By now, you get the idea of what I'm talking about. Yes - it get's the manufacturers and industry players involved, and i know that you wanted to keep things non-commercial. At the end of the day though, if the tech seminars are staged properly, Cobra enthusiasts will be the winners.
