Allan,
First of all the thousands of East coast (NJ)show and shine guys out here need to bring their repliCobras to a larger audience. Just how many times can they park in the same spot, at the same time, in the same town, showing what they bought to the same group of lookers?
And second SAAC is headquartered in the East.
Third and one of the most puzzling reasons for having the convention at a race track in NJ is that most NJ guys don't track their Cobras or any cars for that matter.
Go figure.

Also, I think there are more SAAC members up and down the east coast.
I wish they would go back to Nashville, ONLY a 10 hour drive for me............

You're right, David...
Rick Kopec said that the majority of SAAC membership is within 500 miles of South Jersey.
He went on to say the last national convention held in the NE was at Lime Rock, 7 years ago...and that one set an all time attendance figure, with 10,000 people.

Not to worry. Some of us have replicas that do turn a wheel on a track every now and then.

Since I can't figure out how to resize pictures (and don't have time to go searching to figure out how) check out my gallery for "Mad Max", my 66 Mustang "R" (for replica).

Well the West Coast has warmer weather year round and multiple SAAC events year round.
The (north) east coast hasn't seen a SAAC convention in 7 years. It would make sense to focus the event where you have most of your members. But go figure...
The pretend racers (the "Real men") I suppose have no problem traveling wherever the SAAC event is anywhere in the country traveling thousands of miles if need be to show off their Real men, manly, he-man track skills to all the non real men show and shine types. After all the pretend racers are REAL men so location and distance to travel to show off their super human skills should make little difference. Wow! can wait to see them super open track heros at SAAC.  
Us show and shine types are just grateful that we don't have to travel as far this year to show and shine and carry all that Detail cleaner, micro fiber towels, tire shine etc.. such a long distance. Whew! Thank you GOD!
