You think making two events is a good idea?
Not happening. For 2 major reasons:
1. The cost to make two events same time is just ridiculous. You got over $10G~$20G willing to pay upfront? Oh & don't expect to get all the money back.
2. How much time I need to coordinate two events at the same time is crazy. My hair got salt & pepper from last yr's event. If I coordinate two event at the same time, I'll be full silver hair! lol
If you wanna make Two event? Sure go for it. I'll just totally cancel this East Coast event. Cuz to coordinate all the things are just tiresome. Email all the sponsors, email & call outside sponsors, Advertise this event, coordinate location, go through contract, pay few G's for area rent, coordinate spaces for the vendors, coordinate members for autox/track, schedule flight/hotel/rental car, order plaque, coordinate car show, read shit load of PM/email & reply ASAP, explain to haters to understand the reasons for your actions, design & order banner, get logos from vendors... & there are way too many to do lists that needed to do. Just let you know, I'm not living off doing this. Which means, all the crazy stuff I go through & I won't earn any income, not a single cent. You think, mods get paid? Moderating forum & coordinating event, I'm doing all this for the love for 86 & members. I/we don't get paid to be mods or even get sponsored by anyone.
So let me ask you again, you think making two events is a good idea?
