I can't agree with you guys more. I am still pissed off that GPG '06 was cancelled, and my anger isn't towards Super Duty Promotions (they took the initiative to start the event back up, and have been trying to make it better each year). It's directed at the losers who never gave the new format a chance. My understanding is that the previous promoter screwed it up for everyone, and that's why it went away until Super Duty Promotions "bought it." There are way too many people in the Grand Prix community who are way too much talk, and absolutely no action. With most of the bitching and moaning that I am reading, I'm afraid that GPG will never return, and that is a major shame!
I wish that I had gone to GPG '02 as well, but I wasn't very active in the community back then. I grew up in Kansas, so it would have been a blast to go back. I'm sure that most of the draw was the Grand Prix plant tours (I've heard great stories). These morons don't consider the fact that even if we went back to KC, it wouldn't be the same, since the plant closed.
If moving it a little further south, to be more centrally located, would help increase attendance, I'd be all for that. I'd still go! I just wish that people would quit making excuses and living in the past, and support the only national event that supports the community.
I sure hope that we will see a GPG '07, but I'm not holding my breath. If I were the promoter, I wouldn't take the chance, based on the total lack of appreciation from the majority of the Grand Prix community (most of whom never even gave the new format a try!). My thanks to all of the rest of you who have supported it the last few years, and were going to support it this year!

If the vender's would of stepped up and showed up to the first event. People would of came to see those cars run. Instead of the normal slow 12 sec cars.
As for not hanging out in the parking lot meeting new people you must of been in the wrong parking lot cause we were out there till 5 am almost every morning.
I'm not saying that 02 wasn't a blast, but 98 was a blast also and how many people were at that one? The thing missing from the last two gpg's was the plant tour which was awesome and an actual auto cross track.
If Zoomer and Scott would of made it out for the 04 gpg, you don't think the Mich, and Ohio people would of made it also. Along with a ton more. The drag strip is 100x's better then KC's after all there isn't any friggin deer running across the track while your racing, and your not diving pot holes.
I am thankful that Super Duty took over gpg and gave it an opportunity to continue. I'm disappointed in this community for not being able to make it a continuous success.
