We've talked about it. But space becomes an issue. we honestly don't even know if the track would go for it anyway.

Since we have gotten more sponsors than we had the first year, and word has been spreading, i think it should be discussed for the next Nats... at least just to put it out there again and reconsider if its feasible.

yeah that would be nice. maybe if it ever turned into a weekend event, you could have a swap meet one day and the car show the next to help with space i guess.

I think to be feasible it would mean a total track rental. And the cash ain't there for that yet, if ever. But we'll certainly consider it.

Yes, I remember the discussions and insurance was the big factor. Another issue could be sales tax since vendors are supposed to report/pay sales tax to the state.
