Where's SDAC 26 going to be held?
Which year and which place of a SDAC event had the most participation?

Another thank you that I'm embarrassed didn't make my initial post...
Huge thanks to all those that supplied prizes for awards/hospitality night. Holy cow, was there some good stuff given away. I received a very generous gift certificate to FWD (thanks Cindy and James) and I also got a sweet Craftsman LED rechargeable light. Joy picked up a nice bottle of blue locktite which will surely come in handy. There was also a ton of Kroil given away, and I know most all of use can make good use of that!
Thanks again guys!
SDAC-12 in Memphis had the largest participation, but that was counting all the "one dayers", that came out just for the car show, or just for the drag racing.
At the time I wasn't keeping a separate record of attendance, that changed a year or two later as my spreadsheet got a little more sophisticated. So while other events may have approached the number we had in Memphis overall, the attendance record stands with Memphis.
Please don't assume that returning there would be just as successful, that logic has failed in other places. For example SDAC-4 and 8 both in Indy were very well attended (from my memory) but SDAC-23 there, was less than average. I recall hearing that SDAC-8 car show had more than 120 cars. We haven't ever seen that repeated, and can count on one hand the number of times we've had 100 cars in the car show (Memphis being one of them). Also, the folks in Memphis that worked tirelessly doing the on-site leg work no longer live in the area, and there is no longer an SDAC chapter based there.

My wife and I were down there the week before SDAC 20. We had an absolute blast. I wish we would have waited a day for the Redbirds game though. It was a double header. In the first game there was a bench clearing brawl and in the second an outfielder got into a fight with a fan in the stands. Now, that's minor league baseball at its finest!
I'm pretty sure I mentioned it to Jon but I'll post it publicly so I'm held to it. If you need any help putting together a serious plan for Memphis hit me up, I'll help wherever possible.

I also want to thank all those that helped put this event on! I've wanted to see that collaboration happen for a long time between SDAC and Carlisle and it was worth it! The event was very fun and IMHO was well planned and organized. To the sponsors: thank all of you! I am hoping to make this an event I can attend more regularly. I don't know about every year, but I certainly would like to make more of them.
I personally didn't see any Masi powered anything at SDAC this year. Maybe I was blind, but I thought I looked pretty well.
I only went to Carlisle the first day and there was only 1 16V Masi TC there. I suppose more showed up the next days.
I'm hoping that mine will eventually make it to one of the events! LOL
