This would be great. My car is finally coming together where I am in
need of a racing set of wheels pretty soon.

I really like the open track/driving school idea. My brother attended
Bondurant back when he was still out on the West coast and I was able to
see the benefits (and w/ a Peugeot wagon too! :] )  Even veteran drivers
can gain something from (lets call it) a refresher course.

I am open to it being an Audi/VW/BMW/Merc kinda show. Some of us older
car guys get a bit put out by the 'new car' dudes but they have a valid
claim to fame (well, most).

As for the other Marques; the more the merrier.

Kudos for all the hard work over the years. (I just show up and have
fun.)

I am a bit spoiled as ND is right in my backyard. Many of my fellow
listers have even flown in  to attend and I'd like them to do so again,
so it's in my own best interest to facilitate.

Pretty much MIA this season but I'm plotting and scheming, stockpiling &
grave robbing. (offstage maniacal laughter ensues)  

The ND Show is still just a baby, as far as regional/national car shows
go. It needs our nurturing, if we want to enjoy the fruits there of.

Turbo Tim, Turbo Tim. Hmmmm. Wonder why he's called that.....
