Very true. After the SA shop and Foundation(?) took it over, we stopped attending. Prelude to coming battles was evident. But we did enjoy being with SAAC friends and seeing the SA shop, the car shows and on track events. After Team Shelby was formed, the Bash came about to promote the new factory toys. They no longer use the LV Speedway but head over to Spring Mountain Raceway.
But LV at the right time, may still be a fairly good venue. The casinos love the revenue from the members who have their own "system".
