I just got home from it.....didn't see much, though, as I am a club member 
and got set up early to sell my parts & stuff & had to stay with my spot.  Even 
though I am a presenting club member, I do honestly think the two Flings are 
good shows, worth anybody's time.

We are having increasing trouble with the city.  A few years ago, they 
demanded that nobody could drive within or leave the park from 10am until 2pm, a 
senseless rule that resulted in Jay Leno no longer showing up with cool vehicles 
like his "tank car".  Now, they doubled our park rental fee, claiming we had 
been getting by for less than actual cost for some years.  And, this time, they 
said nobody could park across the street on public curb, forcing many into a 
pay-to-park place.

Our spring 2-day show (April 15) is just about to outgrow the place, and we'd 
like to be somewhere to race at same time.  But, Pomona and Fontana tracks 
want nearly all our profits, Palmdale too far away.  

It still looks like Woodley Park in Van Nuys will be the spot next April.  
One thing I think will improve is that club officers are discussing hiring 
additional security guards to allow the regular-guy sellers to leave their stuff 
out all Saturday night if they wish, like the big pro vendors.  Currently, they 
have to pack up Sat and unpack again Sunday AM.  

Didn't mean to sound like it's a problem show, it's quite good, many folks 
come in from many states to get the good sights and big swap.
