There is a reason why you had to pay the registration even if only doing the country drives (insurance, liability, etc).

And all of us that attended will back up Keith and the rest of the gang for putting this event together and having everyone pay the registration fee.

My girl and I didn't take part in all the activities, but I gladly paid the registration fee. This event rocked! It was worth the fee (and all the gas!).

I'd do it all over again, except I would have taken part in ALL activities for the weekend (I missed Friday night and Sat karts and dinner).

And I got to lead the Sunday morning drive!

Dear Hygiene boy...

As one of the organizers of the event, I think you should understand that the drive is PART of a weekend of events.

Woo hoo! I'm in several of those pictures posted above!

See that short, handsome man, that's me! (notice the one with me and the cop).

That was the beginning of many run-ins with the law (as noted by cop driving by our side in other photo). Joy and I led the Sunday drive that you see above - with the cop beside us!

Oh, and 110 mph? HA! That was on a "slow" road! We were all knocking out much more on some of those roads!

Luckily, no tickets, no accidents.

It was ALL GOOD!

Everyone did a superb job putting together this event. Once again it was an incredible blast and worth every penny...even though our Nikon was demolished on the go kart track (#$#@!!!).

I can't imagine how much time and effort it took to put all of this together for us. For those that actually paid and attended this you know first hand how cheap this weekend was for the money. As we had issues with some guys last year and apparently again this year...this stuff costs money. If you want free then stick to the small local stuff and hope nobody gets hurt. With 70+ cars EASILY involved in the Super Meet I can't even imagine the liability that could be involved if somebody got hurt. Simple economics guys. Hell, just add up all the ink and paper that was used to print maps, directions, agendas, tickets, etc....this stuff isn't free.

Wei-Shen IS the man AND Keith did an incredible job period.

Thanks to you all,
Shay and Sandy
