My feelings one the show are this. I want to see ONLY supercars at this event. That is what makes this special. If you are a TRUE Supercar fan you will attend. Why do I want to go look at a modified mini truck or a street rod just to have a large head count. They have there events and we have this. I would rather look at 20 real supercars than 400+ cars I have nothing in common with. If the format changes and it becomes just another mass produced, bring whatever you like show, I will stop attending. I can go to that type of show anywhere. This was brought up at the end of last years show and some attendees did not return because they felt that there was not enough to do in Sprinfield. Clary changed his format somewhat and added the Harrell tribute. Those that did not attend missed a great program. You cannot make everyone happy and that is just the way it is. If you are a diehard fan you will attend and enjoy whatever the promoter has in store. A change of location has not been ruled out, but again who will be the core that supports the show. Change is a good thing, but you must have the right people to manage the monster. Those that don't like the way things work rarely are the ones that try and fix what they think is broken, they just don't attend. Did anyone that disliked the second show work with Clary to change it for the next year and make it better? I doubt it. If the show is moved to another location you will have the core travel to it and maybe pick up a few more cars that are closer to the new location, that is a given. The bottom line is that if you don't really care that much you will not make an effort to attend. The bickering about what direction or location the show takes next will likely never end..this is a tough job when so many different personalitys come together in one place. Let's try and support the 2001 show from the start.
