Why does it have to involve racing - how about people bring LCD TVs and we have multiple TVs setup with Wiis, PS3s, 360s etc. with all sorts of competitive games. I also wouldn't mind seeing a huge poker tournament included as well.

I work alot haha this economy is great is you have some extra money, the worse it gets the more I spend because you can get great labor rates from company's hurting for business.!! But really I can get like 150 people at the house the only problem is the parking. I could not get 300 Subaru's on my street haha

I think there first needs a committee to get things in order.
Event Planner - Someone to scope out different locations and get all necessary permits and insurance needed.
Treasurer(s) - keeps account of all the accounting and costs and ticket sales.
Vendor management person - to organize the vendors that are willing to participate and assign them spots, makes sure they pay and what they are going to contribute
Entertainment Czar- Organize games and events
Car show judges and organizers
Food preparation and setup
Clean up crew
Parking lot attendants
Theses are some ideas i'm throwing out there.
It would be nice to form a group instead of someone just doing everything all at once.

since its about ideas< why not do something like a trackday/car show or vendor show off. i know it may be quite $$$ but some tracks have good rental rates (buttonwillow ), maybe thunderhill???
