Re: Super Car Reunion 2000 "EXCELLENT!"
Sounds like it was a great show but not that many new Supercars attended. From reading the posts above, it seems like it was the same show as the past two with some cars not showing from the previous shows. Car shows cannot be judged by the number of cars attending but by the amount of spectators that attend. I was not able to attend as a spectator to this show due to prior commitments, but from what I have heard from people that I have talked with that did attend, is that it needs a new location to draw more people and cars. I cannot say the location is not right, but it seems to me that the location of the first show was better suited for a show of this size as there were other Supercar related things see besides the show. Wasn't there a tour of Cliff Ernst's collection in Hendersonville plus the drag racing? Then if the family wanted they could visit Nashville. How about doing something similar but having the show in Pigeon Forge TN close to Floyd Garrett's Museum? The location should provide just as much entertainment for the whole family as Springfield does. Or have it close to one of the other muscle car collections that people have: Milt Robson (if he still has it) in Atlanta, or Dick Bridges collection. Some people may not like my next suggestion but how about combining it with other makes of Supercars: Royal Pontiacs, Grand Spaulding/Mr Norms Dodges, Hurst AMC's, etc...if only to increase the number of cars attending? These are all Supercars and would make for a collection of rare hi performance cars that you don't see at "all makes welcome" type shows. I do appreciate the people who take the time to restore these cars and bring them to shows across the country for everyone to see. Oh well, I can't wait to see more pics from this years show and hopefully next year I can attend no matter where it is at....Rat Pack......
