Jack Wink talked to me at Eureka Springs like he had some kind of input
to the organizers. He also got on the AirCoolers board
and spoke like he has some input. I know Jack owns Black Gold, so I
don't see how he can justify planning a event opposite shows put on by
the people he is seeking as customers. I don't see how it helps his
business. Maybe I am wrong and it is all Action Motorsports doing.

All of the problems I see with this show are related to the drag
racing, the shade free environment, the high cost of getting in, the
cost of the refreshments, the asinine rainout policy, and the on going
date switching are all caused by it being at a drag strip. I say if I
need drag racing I can see it lots of places. I just wish the rest of
the world would realize there are better shows and swap meets to go to
and sell at than Ennis.
