I guess i don't get where you guys are coming from..
You did not really read my post did you? I am agreeing with you.
I am watching this thread, and from throwing our own TeamSerious annual meets (did not throw one last year b/c we needed a break) and watching Jun throw his annual meet, I can tell you there is a lot of social planning that goes along with track,show and getting vendors to sponsor a meet. Ours is only one day but takes months of planning, budget crunching, ass kissing (yes, how else do you get companies to sponor a Nissan meet and donate free stuff). How is gonna budget the food? How is gonna get park permits, who is going thru the legal aspect of it, insurance, etc. This is not a day in the park with people admiring each others cars. A convention is something I would never want the resposnbility of hosting. I respect SERCA and what they do. Like it or not, nothing gets done w/o SERCA. Otherwise it is just another Nissan meet.
FLORIDA, I agree you guys deserve a convention. As a matter of fact, no state deserves to have it twice in 10 years. It should be a traveling thing.
Just remember, this is not a 1 day event. It is usually a 3 sometimes 4 day event that takes MUCHO planning. And no one is going to sit in a parking lot 4 days is a row.
