I just wanted to again congratulate Brian Finch and Bill Howell on a fantastic inaugural event with the first "Run To Music City" From what I saw it was very well attended, with a focus on driving events, but also including show-n-shine, vendors midway, food. even live music... all of which happened at a super speedway giving the event an ambiance with an edge. I live in the Nashville area, so I'm a little jaded, but I really think this location has alot to offer and I hope that next year will be as big a hit as we all hope. I really think that as these type of events grow and expand it will constantly bring more and more people into these activities, and one of the biggest draws is the accessibility and comradery of the people that display and attend.

With my job, I'm very fortunate to be on a first name basis with several of the more notable drivers and teams, but everyone , even event staff and track officials,were as accommodating and friendly to anybody there that asked questions or just had comments, not just the TV crew or photogs that were on site... I saw many "ride-alongs' happening, which to somebody that doesn't autocross alot, is pretty freakin cool!!This community is made up of people that are genuinely good folks, willing to help each other while at the same time compete with each other, which shows the core spirit of the automotive aftermarket and the pro-touring segment ( If Im allowed to call it that?). I hope this event is now an annual one, and I look forward to not only attending next year, but running my car as well...

Congrats guys, and to everyone that attended... well done!:lateral:

Wow thanks guys my wife said my head won't fit through a door now LOL.... the event turned into something pretty darn special and Brian, Mark and Bill did a great job pulling this together... We had some growing pains, but I for one can only say I was honored to be a small part of a very big effort to pull this together... Stay tuned for more great news about this event and other really great news (Bill will spear head the "great news" when it's sorted)....
