Every year I hear about people complaining about parking, entry, weather, swap meet blah blah blah. Then spread the word about how this was bad or that stunk then viola, you have an event in trouble. I applaud the Painter family for sticking with it, unfortunately knowing the Mopar crowd as I do this will mark the beginning of the end for this event. They will now have yet another reason to not attend this event. I hope I am wrong and that all you Mopar guys out there show up in force and show the Painter family they do not need other makes in all the classes. However I feel the opposite will be the outcome..


This is the same thing that happens for us here in the Northeast with Mopars at E-Town every year. It's been Mopars against the World for along time now. Attendance has been declining at a once huge event because people can only seem to complain about anything and everything. If they would just show up and have a good time, there would be no complaints.

You hear a lot these days about a sense of entitlement. Wonder where that comes from. eyes
