It's unfortunate, but I agree. FFW is no where near what it used to be. It's a very expensive, poorly run event with very little attendance.

I quit going years ago. The first few times I went there were plenty of vendors, the cars were great and it was packed. A few years later there were only 2 or 3 vendors and well it wasn't packed. The event died quickly, I wish it was like it used to be but to me its a waist of money now.

Yeah back when FFW was booming, there was rows and rows of vendors on the Midway and a swap meet with good deals to be found. Now - nothing.

I used to buy my slicks there because I always got the best deal. It was nice back then, I used to always go with a decent amount of money on me because I would get stuff I needed cheaper than any other time of year. Now the only real vendor that shows up is UPR and I don't really buy anything from them.

I'll be down there with a few friends from DFWMCC. We went last year, and no it's not what it was, but hell what is? It was still a good time.

Exactly what I was saying. Think my perspective of the event is different then Steve, Jeff, etc because I didn't attend the event when it was at its prime. So to me the events are pretty good from what I've seen when i first started attending.

What time are you and your group heading that way tomorrow?

I'm meeting a friend in Corinth around 8 and headed down there. Some of my friends are going to be there in Ennis at 8. I'm not that excited about getting there early.

I was reading on another board it was worse than ever this year. They say there were no vendors and one car showed for the 5.0 shoot out. Sounds to me like this just needs die for good.
