Cool September Days moving?, and other complaints Options

[biosurfer1]

So we have people complaining about Rob updating the thread at least once a day...people complaining about the WCR being the same weekend as RRC...and now people complaining that we are going to be "lost" in another car show that may or may not be at the same place now.

Did anyone find out yesterday if Cool September Days is moving for sure or is it just a possibility?

Maybe just to shut some people up, Rob might want to think about updating the thread once a week?

I know we can't please everyone and maybe its just a vocal minority, but its putting a damper on an event still about a year away (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Thoughts?

I believe the mandated "Cooling Off" period has expired and we should start talking again.
I kind of see 3 options:
A ) Stick by our original plans
B ) Move our WCR2010 to a new date
C ) Keep our date but change the event to a "Local" event not the WCR2010 event

I think we have a good group here and we can make a great event happen.
Anyone up for trying to get a planning meeting together?

Yes I was a bit bent and put off when all the sh*t hit the fan and had several knee jerk reactions in mind but I am past that and I still want to be involved.

Hi Jim,

My vote is to move WRC2010 to a new date. There's still plenty of time between now and "then" (whenever then is), so it's not like we'd be making a change last minute. Why not have the event in May/Early June? Most of the cars lack A/C, right, so why punish people with a mid summer event? *selfish grin*

I'm headed over to Sonoma next week to talk shop with Mark and to talk about the event as well. It'll be sometime during the week as my weekends are hosed right now. I think the big priorities right now are to a) get the date and then (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) announce it in a new WRC2010 thread in the garage. Then keep our ears wide open. If there's another big event conflict, and I don't mean Z's sister's b-day or similar, then we can swap dates. But this would have to be a case of, "You have a week to speak up or forever hold your peace."

Once the date has announced, then we could go about putting the rest of the puzzle together.

I think we should also not make further public mention of the drama that went on with Take 1 of this event. Moving forward with determination and focus will smooth all that nonsense out.

Rob, I love ya man, but I'm still dead against daily cheerleading in the WRC thread. More than one planner finds it obnoxious and to me that says enough. Maybe daily cheers would make a lot more sense a week or month before the event date. Daily reminders felt like those awful digital TV converter box info commercials that came on every five minutes. Right, I could ignore them, but they still took away from the show I was trying to watch. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
