THE WHOLE PLACE COULD FALL IN AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED.... AFTER THE WORLD OF WHEELS SHOW A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, I DON'T CARE IF I EVER GO BACK THERE AGAIN.... IT'S NOT WORTH THE EFFORT OF GETTING A CAR THERE IN THE WINTER WEATHER, JUST TO WATCH THE PEOPLE THAT TRAVEL WITH THE WOW CIRCUIT, TAKE ALL OF THE BIG AWARDS.... THE PROMOTERS OF THE SHOW, SIT THERE AT THE AWARDS, BEGGING FOR SUGGESTIONS OF HOW TO GET LOCAL PARTICIPATION, AND SAY TO LET THEM KNOW IN PERSON, OR BY PHONE, ANY SUGGESTIONS, OR COMMENTS... WHEN YOU APPROACH THEM, THEY TELL YOU TO WRITE A LETTER !!! WE HAD SEVEN CARS IN OUR DISPLAY, AND ONLY ONE JUDGED, BUT IT WASN'T A CAR THAT TRAVELED WITH WOW, SO IT GOT KICKED ASIDE TO KEEP THE TRAVELLERS HAPPY. THEY WANT THE LOCAL'S SUPPORT WITHOUT HAVING TO RECOGNIZE THEM. I HONESTLY THINK THAT'S WHY THERE IS LESS AND LESS LOCAL SUPPORT. THEY JUST DON'T CARE TO SEE THE KIND OF WORK THAT WE DO.... IF WE WERE SLICKING FIREWALLS, CUSTOMIZING INTERIORS, CHROMING ENGINES, INSTALLING AIR RIDE, AND 24" WHEELS, MAYBE THEY MAY GIVE A SECOND LOOK. MAYBE WE SHOULD JUST DESTROY SOME OF THESE RARE CARS WITH SOME OF THIS NONSENSE.
JUST MY OPINION
