Kansas Motor Speedway (Just outside Kansas City) is smack dab in the middle of the country. Only problem is there is no dragstrip that I can find.

Charlotte, NC... well Concord anyway. We've got a 4 wide drag strip!

1st choice would be Florida.(Not that i'm biased or anything) Second N.O

Looks like a nice solid rotation to me. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Its actually southeast...about as far southeast as you can get...people are saying more central/ northeast kind of area

I personally think you need to take another look at multiple events. Having two events(One on each coast) would allow more people to come to a show that may not be a far drive . Also as mentioned earlier, as the numbers of these cars increase so will the numbers at these shows. This will also limit the number of locations that can be used for a show of this size. Two shows may be the best of both worlds. The only catch is the vendors. Will the vendors support two shows is the big question. My guess is most will support two shows. I would be interested in going to one if it wasn't so far to drive to the event (No whining just honesty here). Until one comes a little closer I'll be slowly plugging away with my project..

..wishful thinking, another thing to consider is having 2 events yearly. don't think it'll dilute the interest, but rather allow attendance flexibility. More headaches for planners, but obviously be up to the participants to make it a success.:party0038:

Why?

Centrally located -- so those from all over the country can drive to it - it's not on either the left or the right - north or south...........

Drag Strip and Autocross nearby

Corvette Plant across the street

NCM tours

Great country for cruises

NCM knows how to throw a party

Now..............

For those of you who may disagree with me...............

Thats a great idea...

I could go for that. Anywhere in NC and I'm good. Although I would expect it to be more towards the center of the country considering the last 2 locations.
