You need to face the FACT that you wanting to be able to waddle into the show and see some mopars without breaking a sweat doesn’t mean it’s some Mecca anymore. Enough people, including you, have posted that since I last went the show has gotten even smaller and less appealing. That’s a FACT. If you can’t put it together that people voted long ago with their feet then you never will. Not my problem.


Smaller? Yes.

Less appealing? That's a matter of opinion.

I've been to every Mopar Nats since 1984.
Is it as big and wild as it was 30 years ago?
No, but that doesn't mean it's less appealing to me.
There also aren't police in riot gear shutting everything down.

We have a good time EVERY year that we're there.

You still see cars that you've never seen before.

It's what you make of it.

No one can compete with a memory of the "good old days" because the world has changed.
You can't get away with the wild stuff that happened back then now, it's simply not allowed due to liability.
You're not going to see burnouts on public streets, the police in Heath were all over anyone who tried.


Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol
