Default Re: Sounds Like The End of Gateway International

I've been hearing that Joliet RT.66 is also under the serious eye and threat of land developers lately but that's another subject for another day. What I and other people are wondering is if the Gateway portion of the Reunion was lost would that be reason enough to move the entire event? Everybody's become so comfortable with the current Convention Center, hotels, and Collinsville in general, that it might be worth just cancelling the Dragstrip portion. Then again, maybe a new city and track would be exciting and new but probably a lot more work to make the arrangements for after Collinsville has become so established.
