Moving around is one of the things that made CamaroFest unique and we haven't lost sight of that. For those who have followed this through the years... know it's always been tough to find the perfect hotel for night life coupled with a track to handle both drags, autox and car show simultaneously. And then re-invent the wheel with new contacts, personalities and different contracts at each new location.

Next, GM begins focus on 1LE and road track cars so we add that to the mix and it's been a huge addition to the fest but also complicates the hell out of things with two tracks now.

We actually had Vegas lined up last year and then they wanted 40k up front so we had to move to Arizona. Then the day before we sent the deposit LS Fest snagged our vacated dates in Vegas. Didn't want to compete with them so we took a chance and returned to Bowling Green where we found a huge local following and a one day drive from the East coast from Texas that just worked. Also, folks who make this location each year have created a pretty solid bong which is cool too.

We're building this event now instead of just flying by the seat of our pants each year. The experience is paying off so stay tuned and let's go along for the ride. More to come!!
