I didn't think the stand we had for the SIDC was too bad. The only negative from me was the tree sap all over the cars, maybe we can swap sides with the Evo's next year!
I think it's a tough decision to pick a spot. The better/more central spots generally have less cars, so less people can get on the stand and the big areas for large numbers get pushed away to the back of the circuit.
I think the Ford clubs had a good area. Pretty much in the middle and still quite a large overall area. Would be good to have all the Scooby clubs filling that area.
