"MN12 Triple-Threat"
3n1
One national meet per year in this big country of ours is never gonna slake the appetites of current MN12 enthusiasts, nor is it gonna expose very many *potential* enthusiasts to the rest of us. After all, wouldn't it be great to bring more owners into the fold? Face it, we just don't have the sheer numbers that Mustang owners have...so let's think about a different aproach. Maybe everyone might oughta think about splittin' up the chores.
I think they/we/you/me/us oughta pick out 2 groups of 3 cities & have 3 simultaneous meets on the same weekend.
Alternate each year. One year it can be LA, Chicago, & Seattle. The next year it can be Atlanta, NYC, & OKC. Can you imagine the buzz across the WWW as 3 areas of the country gear up for "the big show"?
Change is good. With travel habits the way they are in this day & time, I think this would actually bring the current enthusiasts closer together. It would also be a much better option for the guy that thinks he'll never get to go to "the big one".
Numbers? Don't really know, maybe(?) 200 MN12's spread across 3 shows compared to 50 at 1 show. It might catch the attention of magazines easier.
Can you even imagine the braggin' rights that would be up for grabs? Hey, the LA crowd could invite Carroll Shelby to the show, and raffle off chances for a trip around the parking lot/block in their cars with him drivin'. Chicago participants could volunteer their SC's to Bob Glidden for a burnout. If anyone besides me blew up my SC, I'd be proud to say it was the man himself. The Seattle bunch would probably blow everyone away with the sheer number of cars. The braggin' about who had the coolest/wildest guest would go on for weeks before & after all three took place.
3 shows, 1 big hoedown on the 'net & in the magazines.
Do you have Memorial weekend planned yet? If it doesn't conflict with other events, then how about it?
For mid-westerners, the WFC is May 17-19 and would make a great place to hand out those last-minute flyers. On the lower left coast, you could provide numerous Ford lovers at Knots Berry Farm with info on your upcoming meet. Anyone care to add?
"MN12 Triple-Threat"...has a nice ring to it, hmm?
