It's where I live, and as the organizer it's much easier to use my local connections to plan the show. Easy freeway access from most points east and west. It's also about 70 miles from where our cars were built, and a lot of the components were locally- or regionally-built as well. Plus it's only 45 minutes to Summit Racing.

900 miles wouldn't be the farthest someone travels for the show. Right Royce? ;)
