Went to the second NSRA Northwest Nats last weekend in Ridgefield Wa , and have to admit that the general concesus was they were pretty disappointing overall. At the first one lst year there were several problems, including sticking the Canadian Corral off in a crushed rock ' sandy dustbowl and a disasterous Poker Run , but at awards they assued everyone that they knew of the shortfalls and would get it together better this year. It seems that many people just didn't want to give them the chance to fix things and didn't show up this year, because there were barely 500 cars this time. The grounds leave a lot to be desired - a lot of dirty, sandy areas and limited grassy areas. The general feeling though was that it was a bad weekend to have the show being it was the July 4 holiday weekend and many people go away. They had one "exhibitors" building which was pretty dead - very few dealers and a few of the "non car" things that are always there. Would we go back?......I doubt it but we booked a room anyway just in case!
