John Deikis sums it up for me. I have been to the Meadowbrook Hall event and
it is truly awesome, and it doesnt cost $100 to attend.
It does compete for attendance between the track and the concours, but it is
a very good event.
I know that they have worked hard to kee p it alive. It would nice to have it
continue.
