<sigh>
I wish I could go to both, but it doesn't make sense for me either.
I like Dave's event... well run, beautiful track (London's track blows goats by comparison) and it's a nice 3 day weekend, with the Imports on Sunday, the Auto-Cross & Carshow Saturday, in addition to the all-DSM crowd on the Friday.
Makes me feel sad that I will have to make a choice... damn. I wish Dave had picked another weekend. Or at least looked at the calendar, to see when other DSM types had planned replacement events, and planned around that... the 30th was clearly marked on the DSM events Calendar...
I sent him a personal email, just wishing him the best of luck, but that I wasn't sure how many Canadians could make it this year, based on the proximity to the DSM vs. Them event.
I'm rambling... but let me throw out one more thought, before this turns into a Buschur vs. Magnus comparison (I see hints of that above already).
This isn't fair.
Two excellent guys, who run decent businesses (
no matter what anyone says, you have to admit that at least) and who genuinely "
give a sh!t", and their events are mere days away from each other.
Yet, at other times in the summer, we'll be crying for a decent DSM event, or be stuck with the 17 second hondas out at Cayuga because we're desperate for something to do.
I'm sure Dave's timing relates to the already well-publicized Import event on the Sunday (23rd). He's stuck there...
Is our Canadian timing locked in stone? I'm not saying we should even talk about moving it, but at the same time there are probably a bunch of guys south of the border, who are now faced with a similar choice...
I'll stop rambling... just depressed. :|
