It is not happening this year due to tough times and not having anyone to set it up and organize it this year. Setting up a fest is a ton of behind the scenes leg work and life gets in the way

Maybe next year.

Yea I was surprised too and was disappointed since I wasn't able to make it to Bfest this year. I was going to post something up asking too, but I figured that is what happened. If anyone wants to meet up for a day, I would be up for that since my GTZ could use another meet or car show before she goes in to hibernation :-)

No one showed any interest till now, and last year the turnout was only the typical hardcore visitors so we figured we would hold off for this year since Bfest attendance was somewhat low as well. Also as noted I did not have the time to organize this again.

For anyone who wants to though I'll be attending Chevyfest at New England Dragway in NH this October 6th-7th. Anyone is welcome to attend as well, but unfortunately you'll have to find a hotel in the area. I'm staying at a friends house that night.

Jon and Amy (AKA, JAmie) and Amy's friend worked hard on it last year. They put in 125% effort. Unfortunately
a) it rained, therefor no racing.
b) due to issues(economy etc), the turn out was low.

IMO, it's not to rewarding to work so hard and to have so few people enjoy it.

i myself got a 1 day FLU and spent Saturday in the motel bed, while everybody else was out enjoying them selves.
