Camaro's at Carlise

[copo69]

Tom, I've always thought a show of the type you mention would be great. For some reason it's hard to put together a show of this type. I've been to Super Stock Reunions, Midwest HotRod Reunion, Supercar Showdowns etc. and for some reason they just don't seem wildy successful. I don't know why. Lack of advertising, getting the word to the right people? Anyway, I approached Frank Spittle once about doing a car show to accompany the SS Reunions. They had a lightweight show but that only brought in a handful of cars (I met Micky at Va. with a lightweight Pontiac). He then tried the "400 club" for muscle cars rated @ over 400 hp from the factory but it wasn't well publicized and not many cars showed up. I think it was hard for Frank to do the race and his plate was too full to do the shows. Its a shame, I miss these events but understand promoters must at least not lose money and should make a profit. Perhaps if enough groups could get involved it could be put together. The nostalgia super stock racers, this club and maybe some other clubs could coincide their annual conventions and a race date together to make this happen. Maybe just a case of someone starting the ball rolling and some communication. I also missed the York event and regret it, but I understand there are plans for a second one next year so I won't miss that. Greg
