Creating unneccessary drama serves no real purpose. I have already addressed my concerns with the people who do organize the show. If they come back and tell me to address my concerns directly, then I will. The purpose of this thread was to state my experiences, and to state that the 5th gen Camaro is not the end-all-be-all of the automotive/muscle car scene.
The irony of all you people who say "YOU CAN'T SAY SOMETHING IN PERSON, ONLY OVER THE INTERNET!" is down right hilarious. Pot, Kettle, Black.

But as the saying goes... If you aren't going to work toward the solution then you become part of the problem.
I am only trying to help... By not talking to me so I can fix it for you... Well that is drama in itself.

From what I have seen at a few car shows, a few things stood out to me.
The show has signs about noise, no burn-outs, etc. and "Do Not Take More Than ONE Space"...This ONE SPACE ONLY rule applies to "everyone", including the most exotic and unbelieveably restored and expensive cars at the show.
This rule, when disregarded or ignored, immediately puts out a bad vibe with everyone else at the show who would love to get away with the same thing. Not only parking "far-away", but also taking up more than your share, smacks of elitism, ego, and begs for attention for their desired "detachment" from everyone else. And then they wonder why all the old-timers and other car owners don't bow down and heap praise on their cars.
I would insist they park like everyone else, to see how willing they are to be a part of the show, rather than "steal" the show by expecting special treatment and juvenile actions of being stand-offish, and exceptions to the rules.
My guess is once told they have to behave respectfully like everyone else, they won't be back.
