My car at the Dupont c&c event not so long ago:



See, the thing is, I talk from experience. I've been to plenty of c&c events, and not just in Florida. And I get it. My issue is with those that don't. I find ignorance and arrogance annoying, especially in combination, and especially when it results in exclusion... and I don't care what kind of car they drive. I'm not saying all the participants, organizers, or attendees are like that, but I do enjoy an atmosphere of inclusion much more than one of exclusion, and I think that is the kind of atmosphere that should be encouraged. I'm all for a Carrera GT showing up, though having seen 6 different ones at this point (all at static meets), whether it's white or not, it doesn't grab me as much anymore. And of course he (nor anyone else) doesn't have to modify their car. My comment regarding modification was meant towards the more common, less exotic cars (like vettes, evos, wrx, Camaros, Mustangs, VWs, and even something like a Boxster).

And I must be missing something if there are JDM meets happening every other night locally (SRQ area)! You gotta tell me how I find out about those. But do you seriously expect the kind of folks that would get up early enough to come and enjoy a c&c event would be the kind that would ruin a c&c event?

Like I said, I'll come to the next event... I'll see what the atmosphere is like. But I'll be sure to park across the street, 'cause I wouldn't want to bring anyone's property values down.
