GTR240: are you trying to undermine next year's 240sx convention? Do you hold a grudge against Alex (Mav1178) or any of this years convention organizers? Are you sad your car didn't get coverage at the event, or that you couldn't even make it out?

It just occurred to me that if you want to get a big group together next summer, it will more than likely interfere with the 2003 240sx convention, wherever it'll be held! This would make it really, really hard to draw any significant crowd other than those who are local to where you're planning this event. I wouldn't realistically expect such huge turnout if you're doing it anywhere within 3 or 4 months of the National 240 convention.
Some food for thought!
