I can understand people being curious about what you get for the registration fee....

But at the same time I do not understand how anyone with any sense of community would even fathom skipping the fee and showing up to join in on the fun. Generally speaking, most every car event or meet I go to requires payment for a charity, payment for entry or SOMETHING. And as Phil said you usually get nothing in return. To me attending a multiple day event such as this and even thinking it should be free is just disturbing...

If anyone is so that in love with their $25 that they even have the balls to ask if they can be in NV at the event without paying - I'm sure they'll have a much better time sitting at home with 25 one dollar bills on the floor watching top gear episodes.

If anyone here has wasted $25 or more on something more frivilous then this - raise your hand! I certainly have.

EDIT: And despite my feelings about this issue and knowing Phil the small amount that I do - I'm kinda put back that someone who knows Phil would ask if he'd kick out their parents for stopping by. Guys not a nazi! He's just being fair - you want to bring your car to the event and take part like the rest of us? then pony up the $25! Its the smallest expense of the entire weekend!
