Hope this goes pretty good for you, because up in Worcester that show was done running it's course years ago.

Maybe a new location with new blood will bring it back a bit, but with Moscoffian still running the show, I think this is just going to be the show's final swan song.

Once the show became more about just collecting as much money as possible and letting in every grocery getter, instead of trying to bring in the quality show cars, that's when many people gave up on it

As I've said for the last few years..... this show has become the Bret Favre of car shows... it doesn't know when to quit with it's best years behind it

ITA, more than likely I might swing by on the way back from the honeymoon and check it out just to see how much of a trainwreck it will be. That would be good if it was revived and actually cleaned up a lot of what caused it to be so crappy. But as mentioned above, with Moscoffian running it, it's very doubtful that he will change anything other than the location.

I don't mind them letting in shitboxes who want to burn the tires off, but put them next to each other. Don't put some rotbox capri with some halfass built 302 in it next to a 50's Merc that has been gone over the right way and painstakingly rebuilt. Put em in a corral next to each other.

I should stop now before I go off on a weekend long rant haha.

The one thing I hated about the Nats more than anything was every time you turned around someone wanted money from you. Pay to park, pay to get in, pay extra to watch the burnouts from the grandstand, it was non-stop greed.

Good luck Dawg! From folks only wanting $, to dudes throwing beer bottles at your head, it sounds like a horror show.

Take pics!!! And maybe wear an Army helmet. LOL.

This guy is ready for the Summer Nationals.
