Also, allow certain car clubs to reserve spots, so that all cars are represented.
The problem with that, is something like this could happen. Say a car club reserves 10 spots, and only 3 club members show up. What do you do with the rest of the spots? Keep them coned off, hoping everyone else shows up? Eventually, people will get mad that they are coned off for pretty much no reason. A well documented example from another forum, from a previous event.
I still remember the asshat in the t-bucket a few months ago that blocked off the entire front row. He kept saying “Oh, there’s a bunch more buckets on their way”. I left around 11:30 and the row still just had his car in it. Waste.
I agree with all of the posts about the Mustangs and Challengers. I go to see the uncommon and unusual. I mean, seriously, how many can you count here? I could go to the mall parking lot and see just as many of them.
The problem is that the “American Muscle” overflows their sectioned aisles, and choke up the foreign car side and any place they can find to park.
Also a good point. Because of that, show-worthy cars get turned away. A couple of examples that I have seen: Mercedes SLS Gullwing, Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4, Mercedes 300SL Gullwing, Ferrari 550, countless Ferrari 360s/430s, Nissan GT-R, Ford GT, a rare 1966 Ferrari 330 GTC (one of 600 and quite valuable), and countless others. Why? Because of the reason stated above.
