I couldn't believe the number of soccer moms station wagons (complete with soccer junk and other crap) that were allowed in. Some people actually paid to park there daily driver inside the show rather than to walk from the spectator parking lot. I really hope that the NSRA events don't go that far adrift because it WILL destroy their events.

So far it's been OK but we will just have to wait and see.

Its cheaper to be a participant than it is to be a spectator...especially if you factor in the fact that you can bring an ice chest and not have to pay $5 for a beer and $6 for a brat. Not to mention the fact that you don't have to hike a mile to get from spectator parking TO the show.

If you open the door for anything to get in...everything WILL get in. There is somebody out there that thinks a low mileage 1976 Chevette is "show worthy" ....because I saw it displayed at the Delta River Cruise-In last year.

Believe it or not, the Street Rod Nats are a thing of the past.
