As Phil pointed out, unloading/loading speed can be improved if WE the participants work with the staff. This show ended at 5 PM on Sunday. A number of us had our trailers staged in designated areas by around 4 PM. I'll speak for myself and Don Stowers here. We drove out of the building, loaded up, tied down and were ready to hit the road home at 5:42. (Then I discovered my truck battery had died!
) With Don's, Judi's and Annie's help we were back and running in less than ten minutes and still hit 294 headed South before 6 PM.
My point is; we as participants can help alleviate some of the minor issues if we ALL work together. I can't imagine going through life without friends, and that is not only what makes this show; if you know the history, it's HOW this show came to be.
And as far as the word 'glitch', I certainly don't mean to be critical of the staff. When you look at the number of cars, the variety of cars and the overall quality of cars that we saw this past weekend, I'm betting it's a "problem" that ANY show promoter would gladly accept. These guys will fix it!
