Isn't everyone kinda gonna all be together at Sandlin's place anyway? Personally, I think that since it would be a branded Lateral G event, Scott has the final decision on how and what the event is. Maybe Scott could elect a event coordinator, like SW has been mentioned, and get the show on the road.
I don't know how many of you have actually tried to have a democratic meeting with a group of like minded enthusiast with such different ideas of how something should be done, but a hour only muddies things up worse. I have a little experience with this when I ran a 10,000 member club. We would have meetings at the national convention with 300 people, and at the end of the day, we just had to make the decision anyway because everyone was to split, or to far out there, or wasn't thinking about what was good for the hobby / business, but what worked well for them. Quite honestly, we decided the only way to be sure everyone was happy was to make a class for every car and put the 1st place trophy in the goodie bag. The reality is in situations like this, a dictatorship is a much better choice then a warm and fuzzy democracy. How about everyone do there politician with Scott at Steve's, let the man decide what he wants the event to be, and then we all participate if we want to. Scott should do what is best for the hobby / business. Quite honestly, the people he should be talking to are not us, but the press, to see what they would bite on.
Hours at SEMA at to precious to waste on this potential pissing match! Assuming it is east to near the center of the country, Team Prodigy will be there, no matter what.
