[QUOTE="Francois, post: 888006, member: 1356"] I think people lost interest. I couldn't even get 15 people interested in the DIY2018 event, and left it. If I were to organize such an event it would have to be for free. It costs the dealers quite a bit to bring their kit, quite a lot if you want to see the big guns like Eggleston from Durban, a Gryphon from CT, a D'Agostino from Eastern Cape etc. Just wont happen. Let say one can charge an entrance fee of R100 - How many visitors ? 300 ? That is R30k, surely you are not going to rent enough rooms in a proper hotel for demo's. And you WILL need to have rooms separated from each other. So Formula 1 hotel wont work :ROFLMAO: Me and a few friends may organize it for free, take that burden off. Who knows... maybe next year....with careful planning, REALLY good rooms for the equipment and buy in from the main brands, this can work. I still am scared about how many people will attend... I TOTALLY miss it. [/QUOTE]
