Hate to be a downer, but it's too far and don't have the time off from work for the trip.

We understand alot may not be able to attend and that a more centralized state would be better but what we are doin is setting something up so all who are interested(nation and canada and yes that 1 guy in alaska) may come and have a good time! if someone in the more centralized states would like to do somethin I dont think anyone in the midcentral area would be upset?! We just havent seen or heard anyone sayin or doin anything to get somethin goin since the colorado thing fell through so we thought we would put it out there like extending a hand for a shakin!! cmon on in and sit a spell!!! LOL

We have had several runs already and many National Events have been discussed in the past. Location always seems to be the difficult part. If we can put together something centralized, I think you will see better attendance from a national standpoint.

Watch out Mike they will gang tackle you toss you in a bag and kick you around for a bit. I found out when I said the same thing

Edit notice the lol at the end

But on a little more serious note it looks on a map that say Nebraska or Kansas seem to be the most central states in th U.S. Is anyone there willing to do the foot work to get things set up/talk to local hotels about rates and avalebility, any local activities(stuff for kids to do,golfing,cruises, resturaunts etc..),sponsors(car dealerships,car parts stores etc..) vendors (food,drink,parking areas for shows,restrooms etc.) I think this is very open to suggestions/help if everyone wants it in the center of the country on the first one, we are gonna need help from the people in that area we cant do it from IL,IN,IA,MO,WI ok?

This sounds like an interesting idea. Place sounds like a great vacation get-a-way spot. Sounds like it could be a lot of fun. I'd have to see if it works into my schedule but I might be up for it. Gonna have to give my HHR some good rest over the winter though. Mapquest says it's about a 1500-1600 mile trip each way.

Thanks for the information.
