I am glad that everyone had a good time. I am very well pleased with this year's event and am looking forward to the 4th reunion.
I appeciate everyone's comments and will take them into consideration as I plan the 2001 event, which I am working on now.
In the past, I have been invited to be a part of bigger shows, both Super Chevy (Indy) and Street Machine Nationals(Springfield, MO), but even though I was temped, I declined, as I was afraid that the reunion would be lost in the shuffle. We must be doing something right, as in 3 years the reunion has been covered by Super Chevy, Muscle Car Review (who had agreed to cover it this year), My CLassic Car and Speed Vision. We have seen rare cars such as ZL-1 #1, a B-M Phase lll Vette, Nickey Camaros, Harrell Monte Carlo and Novas, COPOs, Yenkos and the list goes on and on. Where else could one see a '67 Yenko Camaro, several '69 Yenko Camaros, a B-M Camaro, Gibb/Harrell Novas, Deuces, Stingers, etc. all race? Who can forget meeting Hope Yenko, Ed Lowther and Donna Mae? How many shows have had a Yenko estate auction? What about being the first group since Dick was killed in 1971 to hear a member of the Harrell family speak and see the families' memorabilia? Where else can you see $1,000s worth of supercar memorabilia on display?
When I decided to start the reunion, I had one goal, to include the things that I enjoyed about other shows and to avoid the ones I hated. Thus, no judging, a cruise, racing and VERY special guests. A show where everyone had the chance to visit with other owners/enthusiants who share the same interests, the SUPERCARS. Simply put, there are two choices, pursue growth and chance becoming just another show or stay on the track we are on now and maintain the small, intimate show that most of us enjoy and look forward to. I do realize that a different location might allow more supercars to attend, which would be good growth. In closing, do me one favor. PLEASE do not compare the Supercar Reunion to any other show. It is the only one of its kind, which is what makes it special. Thanks for listening; Tom
