It should not matter who organized an event is what I'm saying.
Example:
Another club sets up an event, they extend invites to other groups, get lots of "I'm going" replies & then they get blown off with a ton of no shows.
They'd see it as rude & not invite said groups who blew them off again.
This'd hold true more so for show events where head count does matter fars as buying trophies, shirts, food, table reservations, etc. as it then becomes a financial thing.
Just trying to put a different perspective on this simple meet that seems to have been missed for future thoughts when people say they are going to a planned event.
Let's put it this way:
If this group planned an event, shelled allot of cash to set it up, got lots of "I'll be theres", then little to no one showed, how would "we" feel about it?
Just remember these words next time no one shows up at an "official" meet:

seriouslly??? lame excuse?? i dont think so. the way he put it was he was blaming us for lack of people...obv it was posted on other sites and obv alot of people didnt show so dont come on here blaming this group(whether it was intential or not thats how it came off). Like tony said other shit comes up and other priorities come first. If u dont want to come to official meets then dont but dont call what i said a lame excuse cause thats bs. Im not gonna sit here and let us be blamed for someone elses turn out.. Its not like this whole site said they were goin and some of us had other shit that came up its fuckin life and its not like its the end of car meets as we kno it. Name any one club or forum where people dont back out on shit..bet u cant...give me a break. Dont come on here and try to stir shit up with those kinds of comments. Your not being the voice of reason at all when u call someone elses post idiotic and are being one sided..And whos shelling out cash for that type of meet? ...no one
o and it would be another thing if the people that posted they were going just didnt show up or at least post up "hey guys sorry i wont be able to make it" which in this case i think mostly everyone that ended up not being able to go did. Anyways sorry about ur turn out. It happens. Its happened on here and every other site ive been apart of that sets up meets. Theres always next time.
