Well we tried, I am very sad that this had to happen. Please let everyone know if you are going to try for next year. We can all get behind it and give it the promotion push that it deserves. Thank you John for your work.

Sorry john - You and the guys here tried hard to make it happen. They need to know how much harm that this has done with a lot of people will be out the cost of hotel rooms and travel etc.

I'm out $140 for two non refundable nights at the days inn... I certainly never expected them to cancel it.

Is there any open warehouses nearby we can take over? Anything at all so this can work for everyone?

I really don't want to lose an east coast event.

I'm pretty inclined to agree with you Dave. I'll talk to you about things tomorrow John. Sorry it didnt work out man.

What does it take to have an official Eastcoast Qualifier? I mean how does it become approved?

I was just curious what hoops have to be jumped through? I want Motorama to happen next year and I am 100% behind you John. I am sorry if that came across wrong.

Not at all I was just stating that once an organizer gets a Qualifier, he/she has it for that month until they give it up.

Wasn't taken anyway other than you were curious...

The million dollar question is: do you plan to still hold an event else where?

Guys,
Give me a couple days to decompress... Keep up the chatter on here.


I want to thank the sponsors that stepped up even with the low activity. Thanks go to RC4WD, Holmes Hobbies, CowRC, Krawler Konceptz, Mayhem Engineering and just today Parma. They really believe in and support this hobby even when things are tough.

Thanks to all of you.

I know if the Boulder House becomes a possibility about 8 guys would make it from MiRCa"thumbsup" Let's make the best out of this and make it happen.

Later,
