The exact geometric center of the US is in Kansas. But there aren't too many twisties there.
We do need somewhere central, IF we do this, it needs to be somewhere that everyone would feel like they could attend, and not favoring a particular location.
I also found out there is a Stuttgart, Arkansas.
Pat.. are you willing to start organizing it?
Clay,
When I chaired the '93 Parade concours, I swore that I'd never get "involved" again. In the 20 years prior to that I'd done everything, and I mean everything, that PCA offered. Name it - I did it. Regional president - 4 years, VP - 2 years, newsletter chair - 4 years, rally chair - 1 year (that was disastrous), concours chair - can't even count the times, autocross chair - 2 years. And, then the Parade in '93! In Cincinnati, July, heat & humidity! Twelve months of prep!
Can you spell "burnout"?
After that event, I swore I'd NEVER get involved again, except as a participant. I would NEVER be involved with a concours, unless I could go & show. I would never do anything with rallies, unless I could work a checkpoint. I'd never participate in an auto-x, unless I could just show up & run.
I've more than paid my dues to Porsche, PCA, et al.
Thanks for the offer, but there are better people. And, however they want to make it work is fine with me. Just want to play these days.
Be happy to participate, though. And, I'd love to work a rally checkpoint! That's the one thing left that I haven't done. I'd even provide donuts!
Pat
