Why can't we have a West Coast show at Charley's house? Bob puts it together, Bruce takes pictures, Charley gets to host and the rest of us can bring our cars and and drink his beer.

Now this can not be a GOOD sign. If there is No SCW what cool cars are we going to look at? The Reunion will be ALOT thinner. Or maybe the west coast can bring more of the pro touring kind of cars to the show that would be AWESOME. Well no more Vette Fest and NO reunions to go to guess alot of east coast guys and gals will get to save alot of fuel not having to go the the Midwest. This board is going DOWN HILL in a HURRY. But like they say ONE door close's and another door OPENS.

i have been lurking here since the last reunion. i stumbled across the reunion by visiting friends in st.louis. we kept seeing trailer after trailer piling into gateway raceway. so we stopped in. truly a great race day. i am kind of saddened by the statement above about it being only for "supercars". (at least thats the way i took it) one of the neatest cars there wasn't a yenko,copo,gibb,nickey,berger or whatever else was there. it was a junior dragster !! it was painted like a yenko and had all the emblems and such. we spent most of the day watching this young man make his first attempts down the dragstrip. it was great to see. we talked with him and his father for some time and although they didnt have a 'supercar" it was great to see the youth starting to gain interest in this hobby we all love so much. so i hope that this doesnt turn away non supercar owners from being able to bring their own cars to this great race. i do believe that i did see on the dragster the super car workshop logo, that must mean that the guys from the SCW also want to see kids and families like this one continue to support this site and hobby for many years to come in the future. sorry my first post is so long. i hope that i didnt offend anyone with this post. i want to see all members car stay a part of the reunion. after all, they all are "supercars" in their own form.

It is and always has been about the people NOT the cars. I don't think I would even notice if there were no cars at the reunion........ok, maybe a little. The point is, ALL of my friends today are fellow car enthusiasts and most have come through this site. I very much enjoy seeing some of the other iron show up at the reunion and especially at the drag races. One of Annie's most enjoyable times was racing her Nova and that included the run against Charley's pace car with the top down and the flags waving. Great day. In that same breath I think most of us can honestly say we wait is suspense to see what the SCW guys are going to unload from the trailer and the best are when they are cars that are under construction. I think everyone would agree that they enjoy those times especially when the wheels almost came off Tommy K's unfinished car when we moved it for a photo shoot. Classic moment!

The point is, not all of us agree with or like everyone on the board but have to admit that virtually everyone here with rare exception brings something to the board. I think we all need to spend na little more time before hitting the keyboard and take a deep breath before stating things that are either hard to take back or should have just been kept to ourselves.

There is plenty of fighting going on oversees for things we stand for. Lets all try a little harder to get along on this side of the fence and not fight over what most would consider to be petty things in the whole scheme of things. Everyone has a personality, thank God and we all need to just relax a little and not get so bent out of shape all the time. I want nothing more than to see the sYc the same it was several years ago when the worst thing that was said on a thread was someone upset with themselves for not being the one to find the latest barn find. Without VetteFest and some other shows around anymore it is now more important than ever to have a great show at the SCR reunion with ALL......the past participants and many new ones.

After spending another week with Kwhizz and having some nice talks, I agree with him. There are WAY more important things in this life than squabling over small things and some of those important things can never be returned or replaced. Think about it guys...........

The dozen or so picture threads in the various forums are what brought me here.

I certainly don't own a Supercar.

My good Republican friend. Urging you to drink to excess, and smoke an illegal substance. Thank goodness there are those of us who believe in social responsibility, and reject the values of the wayward GOP. Next I suppose he'll be claiming he didn't inhale, and mention wanton sexual activity.

Porterfield says you're a sissylips.

And I concur wholeheartedly....these are just cars.

Maybe it's time again for what I think this site and the reunion are all about!

It's just my opinion...
