Right on.
Let's see about the last three (3) Conventions in a row....
5-6 hours was one-quarter (1/4) of my 2,200 mile round-trip to Ohio. 1,102 miles from Robs door to mine. LOL.
Connecticut was going to be 1,500 miles
one way. I made it a quarter way driving, hauling the Classic, threw up, slept overnight, drove home. Then flew to that hoe-down.
Savanah was 968 miles, 1,938 miles round-trip. Over 15 hours, one way. I picked up my Classic from the Restoration that morning, packed, and took off solo for a...ahem...short 2,000+ mile shake-down run and track session.
Without any questions nor reservation, worth every single mile, hour, and dollar spent.
5-6 hours?!? Pfffffffff......that ain't no mountain for a climber.

We want to open up what we experience to as many people as possible, so we need to cap at $200 max and the closer to $150 we can get the better.
I "liked" Kyles post (still do), but understand your point as well. The more guys that experience the road course, the better.
One trip to Nelson Ledges and I think we got Mr. Hardcore Quarter-Mile Former-Street-Racer Manny pondering going around curves instead of only seeing just how fast he can go in a straight line. He might have to upgrade his brakes and suspension as he builds his current turbo-car. Then he could effectively do both.
