Usually the local channels will air local events so our club officers are on TV every 6 months for our two shows and of course it is free.

It was many years ago before Mr M (Sky) reared its Head. The vid was repeated 6 times over the evening. Also got a spot on BBC Radio South at the same time.

Your comparing apples to oranges Russ. A track or coliseum costs how much to build? 2-10 million dollars, maybe more? Spectators have to pay to recover costs. It cost $0 to use the parking lot at your local Ford dealership or at Logans Steak house or to block off some streets downtown. Besides, the spectators still support the even through 50/50 sales, food and drink sales etc. It's win/win for everyone and trust me when I say that the money does not just come from the show cars. I won't pay to see a local car show because I have a family of 5 and that adds up fast. Besides we are talking about small events in small towns usually with around 50-60 cars tops.
Btw Russ, please don't think I am trying to pick on you or anything.
From a club members standpoint I am just trying to help people understand where and why the costs are what they are. Have a great Saturday everyone!
We officially have a date set. The show is called the Bumble Rumble. It'll be held in Cleburne, Texas on Saturday, September 3rd.
I do not have any other details, but we are meeting again in two weeks to complete some other details. I'll be sure to post again as soon as I know something/anything further!
