Jeff,
I know money is always an issue, ( Hell I’m retired and I had to send the wife back to work so I could play with you guys ) and we do have members in our club that could have sponsored this entire event all by their self, but they are not going to be at our 3rd. annual meeting either. Everyone knew about this event a long time ago and should have been able to plan for some time off from work and also put some money away for this weekend. As far as this being a kiddy park, Jeff and Spiderman on Jan. 11-12, 2003 Silver Springs held the 9th annual Ford Mustang gathering and there were around 1,000 cars in attendance (only about 900 in 2002). They started off just as I had attended by holding our 3rd event at a place where the whole family could attend. For sometime now a large Ford Parts Supplier hands Silver Springs a check for $20,000 so that the 1,000 cars and attendees can come for a weekend for free and Silver Springs takes care of every thing. It is just too difficult to try and have racing events and our annual meeting on the same weekend. If you follow the posts of our club you will see there are racing events such as Gainesville and the Willis 100, etc. during each calendar year. All kidding aside I will be at the Silver Springs gate early Saturday morning selling tickets for this event.
