Is it just me or is the Nats unorganized?

The Nats are a far cry from what they were 20 years ago. I didn't bother going again this year after seeing it last year. It's still a lot of fun, don't get me wrong, but not like it was in the early '90s. Back then you couldn't even hope to see it all in 2 or 3 days it was so huge.

I went to the Nats this year for the first time in over 20 years and came away with the same impression.

I went this year because with the 100th anniversary of Dodge and the 50th anniversary of the 426 Hemi. I was expecting it to be a really big deal and awesome "must see" event. Sadly, I didn't come away with that impression. The big Dodge event seemed to be the Hellcat and the Hemi tribute seemed to consist of the two 68 SS/AA cars. I thought that I would see more. What really surprised me was that I looked for, but could not find, a single original "R code" Hemi E-body. If there was one on the grounds I didn't see it and I thought that I had done a pretty thorough search! For being "the BIG event" I was really surprised that there wasn't one there.

I guess I was just expecting it to be more like it was when I had previously attended in the 80's thru the early 90's. Things really have changed ... but then again I should have been realistic and anticipated that it would have.

The highlight for me was stopping by the FABO tent and the one over at Cuda-Challenger.com and saying "hi" to all you guys! :cheers:
