Maybe death of SZ and NM, but not CEG.
The Contique community will shrink over time, but just look for Capri and Merkur support and you'll see it's still out there. (And they are still meeting, albeit in small numbers.)
I, for one, have to be very choosy. I wish I had time to drive all over the country and meet up with people who share a passion for these cars. Sounds like a real hoot. Oh well. Got a family, and other priorities.
I'd love to go to Carlisle someday. Maybe I'll finally meet some of you there, along with owners of other cars I love. (see paragraph 2, above.)
Hell, I live 3 hours from the SCCA Solo II Nationals site, and I still haven't made it up there.
Someday...
I couldn't have said it better myself. I think this site will keep going as long as there are still Contours on the road! I think the state of the economy right now has a lot to do with the poor turnout at SZ and NM. But just cuz those events were cancelled (or scaled back) doesn't mean that the CEG community is dying.
