If his photog skills were worth a damn it might have been.

I'm having a hard time trying to understand what people were expecting. There wasn't anything on the flyer that was misleading. It wasn't a HIN, nor a professionally sanctioned show. The promoters are a small club, and trying to do something nice for the community and the image of the sportscar scene.

People got what they wanted out of the show. Some had a predisposed notion of how the show would be and let it direct how they felt about it.

Obviously, some thought it wasn't worth showing up on time and just rolled through. Thanks for the support you're all number one.

Others showed and left with out even the grace of a $5 donation. Remember to tell that to your sibling/cousin/sibling's kids/YOUR OWN kids when they get leukemia.

To those that were there, and showed support I am most sincere in saying THANK YOU. And you have all given the potential for an even better show next year.

Thumbs up for the charity. I only razzed the Neighborhood Dreamz peeps....it speaks for itself and the monstrosity they bring with them. Maybe I'll have time next year to actually enter and chill for awhile. There were a few interesting cars for the 5 minutes I walked through. GL next year.

Note: I purposely remained quiet on my personal opinions of the "quality" of the show in this posting.
If this was a local hangout that did not involve a charity, I might have expressed my opinion.

And I thank you for you restraint. On the same note PM me if you have any ideas as to how my club could make it better. The more people that are interested the more money goes to the kids.
