I guess I've just been lucky as he's been to all the conventions I've attended.

No, I certainly don't expect him to show at any future SAAC events.

I guess for me the decision to attend will lie with the site chosen. I'd prefer an historic track vs a site chosen first for it's hotels and second for the track. I was a little concerned a couple of years ago when SAAC indicated they were trying to pick a single site and hold the convention there year after year. I really like moving it around the country so I can visit different tracks. And the rolling show that is the open track provides the best music one can hear - a GT40 at full song down the main straight at any track......

I'll be watching this SAAC/Shelby feud with interest. Hope the enthusiast doesn't suffer in the end. Seems like the two parties share similar goals and would be better off working together than butting heads for members.

SAAC and the SVTOA will presumably continue to hold events together - maybe the SVTOA will provide the new blood SAAC needs to survive.
