An organization like Ours was formed for a reason and that was to come together as a group and share in the passion we have for our cars and comraderie with the car owners. Whether they are show quality or project cars; daily drivers or weekend racers, it's all about the cars and the people that own them. NELCE/LOD events are talked about in chat each and every week and are planned well in advance. It was disappointing, to say the least, to witness the low turnout yesterday at Raceway Park in Englishtown, NJ knowing that this event was talked about and put on the calender almost thee months ago.
Imagine how Jack and I felt after reserving 30 spaces for OUR members, including affilliate members and having to give up 27 of them a third of the way into the course of the event. We had one member who wasn't permitted to park in the show car area only because he was racing and was required to stay in the pit area. But what about the rest of you?
It's disappointing, disheartening and a shame that the rest of the membership isn't taking a more active part in our group; key word being OUR. Most of the members are in NY from the way the list looks so there's no excuse for there not being more involvemnet at least on a local level such as the Bellmore Train Station meets on Friday nights, etc.
After Carlisle on June 3, 4 and 5, the NEXT NELCE/ LOD meet will be on June 18th in Edison, NJ I'm hoping to see more of the members there ....
Carry on ..... responses aren't necessary. Reflect on your own thoughts.
