i actually rode with H@mmerm@n (mike) since I didn't have my car anymore.
i actually rode in comptechs test supercharged CL when a guy who owned it drove it up to oregon for our meet.

Just spitballin' here, but I kind of think the BAIC is either too lazy, too small, or a combination of both to pull the numbers it used to. Maybe a cental/norcal meet or some combination of 'xxIC' to make it a memorable event. Plus you can pool resources, knowledge, and meet people and see cars you wouldn't otherwise.

^^ A central location would be nice. I'd say you'd need strong vendor/magazine support to give the fence sitters an incentive to *gasp* drive their car someplace other than the KK/In n Out 2 miles from their house.
edit:
Maybe something around Monterey. Could be Nor/Central CA depending on who you ask, easy drive for almost everyone in the area, even those in the Central Valley.
Just an idea.

Yeah, whining about the $10 entrance fee especially when it includes all you can drink sodas and bottled water, not to mention food and snacks pretty much makes you a cheap ***. I mean, if you go to McDonalds you can easily spend $10 on yourself considering that a 20p chicken nuggets is $7 + drink and tax.
Damn, I never thought about it that way... Thats totally being a cheap ***!

Let's see, us North Bay people spend an entire tank of gas JUST TO GET DOWN THERE!!! Even with the price of gas being low like it is right now, that's still at least $25 worth of gas.
Your whinemaking skills are over the top, though. I think you'd fit right in with the Gallo family wineries.

Same here--and I'm willing to help out in any way needed.

But they show up anyway and have a blast, pay for entrance fee and parking, and dont ***** when they get there ( unless the food ran out, like in '04, and its hot as monkeyballs, as it was in '05 ) The masses are always gonna *****, right up until the ticket purchasing cutoff point looms before them and they all miraculously shutup. Its part of the Hammy tradition, just like almost killing your friends and/or driving your lame *** off the cliff and landing upside down because you think you are Petter Solberg on a road you've never seen.........
Best advice that could possibly be given
