Jim -
Sorry you're considering not coming to the Texas convention. Even though there won't be any drag racing, there will still be plenty to do and alot of interesting people to meet.

Since you're a fairly new member, I'll give you some history on the last several conventions. At the 2008 Iowa convention, we had 6 racers in attendance.

Of the 3 conventions in Denver, we had no more than 10 inline cars and those conventions were held in conjuction with our yearly Flathead/Inline National race. The majority of cars here were from the local area. At the past convention in Detroit, there were less than 4 cars.

Sometimes scheduling a race for that number of cars at a close dragstrip to the location of the convention is impossible. And being a die-hard racer myself, I can understand that.

Hope you change your mind, like to meet fellow drag racers. But will also enjoy all the other things that will be happening!

Bob
