Did you read that whole CFOT thread? Folks keep quizzing Pewter on the issue of the low attendance and he keep skirting the issue that regular attendees are no longer there. Funny yet so sad for him. If it looks like chit, smells like it then 99.99% chance it is chit.

Thanks for the heads up Liz...ill see if I can make it but Iam part of Vettes for Vets and we have are sanctioned event at Talladega Super Speedway on memorial weekend. It has been sold out with over 200-250 vettes for the last 2 years. Next year supposed to be even bigger. Iam actually quite surprised Vette Barn wanted this weekend to have this event. From what I heard lots of members of the other forum were complaining that memorial weekend was getting too difficult to plan for and that they wanted their event held at another time which was now confirmed to happen.
I will keep an eye out on this to see what the dates are, if there is something going on, on Sunday, ill probably take a ride up...as for Saturday ill be on Talladega doing 150 down the back stretch. |

My big issue with CF is for some reason that was never explained to me, it was deemed fit for them to run all my replies to any topic by a moderator to be "approved". After a few days of this happy horseshit, They recieved a pm ordering them to permaban my ass. Fvck them and their holier than thou attitudes, censorship, double standards, and playing favorites with their little Butt Buddies.

That said, not everyone likes to fight city hall. I can certainly see that line of thinking too. I hope you can join us at BR II. Oh and BTW...there are many different versions of Bram Stoker's "Dracula" too (where writers take creative license). But there's only one original. |

(2) the date is the reason? Come on, sir...the date didn't kill it when it was a good, solid event! It's funny the date is such a big part of the blame now! (3) The CF CI was not "moved from the date." That date at the NCM is no longer available to them. |

The Memorial Day excuse will be shown to be false by the turnout for BRII, I'm sure.

1. You are very correct Liz and I know they are over here 2. The date is partial to the reason...times have changed...many of the folks that have been coming for years have grown up (including myself) and have families or have gotten married. My only emphasis on the date was that more activities seem to be held now on memorial weekend that give more "bang for the buck" then what the CF has been for the last 5 years. Blame the economy, lack of support of the forum, whatever. In addition, as I mentioned some of those with new families cherish their memorial weekends. 3. The CF CI was not going to take place for 2012 at the NCM...that was determined before this years Cruise In. It was no real secret. Iam very happy Vette Barn took over or stole the spot. It's great to see a new event be born. I hope that the function goes over very well and that the sunday is utilized and is not wasted. I was curious as to what happened with Roscoe though and why he was not offered to play a role? I know there was a new cook nominated but still? (You can PM me if you don't wish to publicly answer this). I look forward to seeing many faces from a while ago and hopefully some of the activities from back in the day. Jeff |

As for times changing and families and all that - for some folks Memorial day is the perfect day. Its a long weekend before summer kicks into gear, school is out and its a good chance to get away. As for Sunday being wasted it has always provided me with a means do the whole days drive home and rest up on Monday. |
