I was out at Spring Mountain today, and in an informal conversation with one of their senior officers, he was very complimentary regarding the professionalism and conduct of both the participants and spectators during this year's event -- self policing -- a nice job by all! Like most car guys, I go to events like this to look under the well-prepared cars, talk to their builders, and then watch them close-up to see how their mods perform. You could pack more spectators into an arena like Las Vegas Motor Speedway with big grandstands, but you would lose that close contact with the vehicles and the participants, and even with the sponsor's and part's suppliers (except for big decals on the fenders that you might see from the stands). My $.02 worth...
