It's unfortunate, but I agree. FFW is no where near what it used to be. It's a very expensive, poorly run event with very little attendance.

I quit going years ago. The first few times I went there were plenty of vendors, the cars were great and it was packed. A few years later there were only 2 or 3 vendors and well it wasn't packed. The event died quickly, I wish it was like it used to be but to me its a waist of money now.

Yeah back when FFW was booming, there was rows and rows of vendors on the Midway and a swap meet with good deals to be found. Now - nothing.

I used to buy my slicks there because I always got the best deal. It was nice back then, I used to always go with a decent amount of money on me because I would get stuff I needed cheaper than any other time of year. Now the only real vendor that shows up is UPR and I don't really buy anything from them.

If you buy anything from UPR, Kevin will kill you.

I haven't purchased anything from them in at least 6 years. I won't now for sure since I have a vert and all that billet shit gets way to hot to touch.

It only gets hot if your car sees sunlight...

I took it out Saturday when it was daylight. When it got around a 100, I went home and put her back in the garage.

LOL bad memories too I guess.

It's coo, just figured I'd ask everyone to see. I've been attending this and the one in Houston the past 3 or 4 years and the turn out has always been pretty good. I know they stopped doing these events a few years back, but when it came back last year the turnout was pretty good.

I'll be down there with a few friends from DFWMCC. We went last year, and no it's not what it was, but hell what is? It was still a good time.
