I like Zmax Dragway and National Corvette Museum as potential future sites, but for next year, I would opt for somewhere out west.

Let's find a good site in Arizona, Nevada, or even Colorado for "Fest VI"

Arizona - Firebird International Raceway (assuming it's open and functional)
Colorado - Bandimere Speedway (just west of Denver) (drag strip is only 1,000 feet, though :/ )
Nevada - Vegas Motor Speedway (expensive as hell, unless they get their collective heads out of their asses and recognize we're not some small operation site like they think we are)
Utah - Nothing...hmm...

California has a couple spots (Infineon and Auto Club Raceway at Pomona) but at Infineon the drag strip is part of the road course, so we would only be able to use one or the other. Auto Club Raceway at Pomona looks nice, has a drag strip, road course, space for an autocross course, a vendor area, with plenty of parking space left over, but I imagine having the Fest there means over 60% of the forum members would be unable to attend due to how far their drive would be.

That light look brightest in the Charlotte, Nc area.

I agree - June through early August would yield more participation.

We outgrew Valdosta... give us a track, autox with tons of parking for vendors and a large hotel.

I REALLY like this setup.. Drag Strip, Oval for AutoX, and an Amusement park to boot.
