CORSA 2012: Economy Run and more

[Vairtec Corporation]

Jason, stop listening to the tiny handful of people for whom the sun 
rises and sets on the concours and listen instead to people like the 
102 Corvair owners who came to the Clark's show on a SATURDAY last year.

The Saturday concours will attract more new participants than it will turn off.

Stop catering to small focus groups like those who like an econo 
run.  They'll have one this year in Denver and if they step up to run 
a future convention they can schedule what they like.  I'd rather 
"alienate" the tired old thinkers and attract new blood.  I'd rather 
change it up,  make it fresh, and -- most importantly to me -- make 
it different from year-to-year.

The more this convention morphs toward being just another same-ol 
CORSA convention, the less interest I have.
