mainly for mark....has the club ever had or thought about getting a club corral at this event. i have always loved going and i think it would be a good way to get the word out on the club. i have the info on who to talk to if we go with it. its july 6-8 and usually on sunday the clubs all get to do a little parrade lap around the track and that sort of thing.

This sounds cool, and would be a great way to show our cars to fellow classic enthusiats!
Who knew that a cheap little car designed for the masses at the whim of an evil dictator could be so very cool more than 6 decades later?

GO ahead and call. I will get the info from you and we can discuss it at the meeting Tuesday night. WHen Mark is not around you can always talk to me (Your friendly events co-ordinator:-) about such things.
No really...I do it for a living.

Go for it.  Doesn't hurt to get information.  I am sure there is a cost involved and it sounds like it is one big car show (the Corral thing).  Thanks CJ.
