Robbiewt: the exhibition in the afternoon is fun. Worth going if you're in the neighbourhood.

Heard back from the organizers, re the registration fee. There are some options.

(FYI, I agree with Tasdrouille - it's worth supporting the event. They put a lot of effort into it.)

Quote:
We did some figuring based on this years expenses because the entry fee includes 2 Tee-shirts, 2 lunches, insurance costs, and a bit towards trophy expense.

The wiggle room we have is : We could eliminate the 2 Tee-shirts and 2 lunches. The charge would then be $25 per car.

If they wanted 1 Tee-shirt then it would be $35 per car..

Hope this helps, we really don't make any money on this !
