OK so, with a larger building one that could house it all what are we talking 20 /40 K sq. ft. more?
The one thing I didn't like about the inside swap meet area is how crowded it was. Now, it's been a few years since I've been but if you were able to have 10x15 or larger with a mix in size so sellers could spread their stuff out a little, would that be a better thing? Back to space size, An eight ft space just seems too narrow unless all you have is a couple tables of stuff there is no way to display all of what someone might have to sell, take a tunnel for example, what are they 4 ft on average? Now add wiring or cables, I know that if I'm looking for stuff like that I don't want to stand there and have to unpack or unwind wiring just to check it out. Now add an engine and pipes to the mix with one half of your space used up where will other stuff fit and then where will I sit?
Trust me not bashing here and I know, you can rent more space but then you have the guy who has enough stuff to fill an 8x what ever and just a little more what now, rent a second space and then sell off some stuff and have paid for an empty space? With the main show room I think it needs to be kept to sleds both factory and mod no quads or what ever and the mod business right there too and something needs to be done about the clothing, they seem to get stuck off in a corner with not much room to move around as well.. I just think the whole venue needs to flow better from what I've seen and heard, don't know all that is needed or what takes place or what is behind the scenes with the city but my guess is they have too many attorneys on the pay roll talking about liability, so it might be time for a new venue... Between all of the people who sled here ,
I bet logistics would not be too difficult I don't live there but I bet with a little street boondockin some body could find a building or two that would fit the bill and as far as location don't think that would matter too much to any one as far as finding a new place....... I will ad this as I stated in the other thread if the venue doesn't change there should be a way to rig up an enclosed trailer to be able to run sleds, again, not rocket science if that in itself would help then so be it..
