1st Annual Smart Nationals Discussion Thread

[twister2699]

Back on January 12, you stated the intentions of the group of organizers very well and I appreciate your efforts as well as the effort of the entire group of organizers. I am sorry to hear of your health problems. As one of the original organizers I wish you could be here to see your dream come true. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Get well soon. John S.

I'm still in and want to keep every one pumped for coming in despite my concerns.

I know we have a lot of people registered here in SCOA.

Has there been a mass email sent to the registrants of SCOA?
If not, what will it take to send out a series of notices, carefully timed to keep the motivation going?

I'm planning to attend regardless, but the more the merrier! I do hope smartUSA contacts all existing owners, promotes the event on their website, and through the dealers - and does it soon!

I'm looking forward to a road trip to a city where I've never been, meeting more smarties, putting some faces to SCOA handles, enjoying some good food and smart fun! Along the way, I'll be picking up a few more smart dealers for my map. I must say that I've been to more places because of the smart than any other purchase I've ever made.

Sturgis was started by a handful of people, look at it now ,the biggest bike rally in the world.

Appreciate that Jet! I bet you'd even leave the lights on for us! SCI is already on the map from last year's Indy event, but you never know where Team Fernatt might show up!

I think I can pick up the KC dealers, St. Louis and Cincinnati...

Hey, I see that smartusainsider.com has a plug for the Nationals on their home page!

Glad to see smart is finally living up to some of their obligation for this event.

Looks like a lot of changes are happening over at Insider today
