Anyone who conducts, organizes or pays for anything. I believe this was the reason Excellence pulled out from the first organized shootout I tried to set up.

I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole without the proper insurance.

I guess the property we attend needs to be insured as well. Damit.

6speed will not be liable i'll tell ya that! But you guys are more than welcome to use the forum as a means to create an event. If there are any insurance guys on the board contact buddy to see waht can be covered I guess....

Ps - I vote for NEW YORK

There should be amoung the committee various organizational titles. Vehicle Transportation, Hotel Arranagement, Entertainment Cordinator, and a guy with a bat for those who whine about not being able to attend.
I would like to be the BAT guy!

so we do have some experience, I feel weird about nominating myself but hey, I'm good at planning, I know Vegas and Dallas like the back of my hand, especially Vegas, and for the party peeps Vegas rules hands down.

Of course: Shank, DJ, lou, BuddyG, the prominent East and West coast peeps and Mr. Killer Angel if his car will be done by January 2040 ...... i kid Ikd. And for a womens touch Michelle and Roybn of course.
So come on mods. lets do this and do it RIGHT!!
A committee is a must. I would be happy to head this up so if you are interested in being on this committee PM me so we can start an email list.

Darren, the fact it is being named "6speed Shootout/National Meet" would get you into liability troubles.

Anybody can sue anyone for any reason - welcome to the good ole U.S. of A.! You can't live your life frightened of litigation. If insurance is impractical I'm sure participants can sign an indemnification/"at your own risk" agreement. If this takes place at Motor Sport Ranch or Texas Motor Speedway in the Dallas area I'm sure these will be covered and everyone must sign.

shootout

the speedway will never allow the event without proof of insurance coverage. Not only that, they will dictate the type and amount of coveragea and expect an additional insured clause. I would be happy to help re legal matters.

I agree the first step of the long ladder is to set up a committee that will be responsible for organizing, etc. That committe main goal should be is to turn this dream into a reality.

I agree MJC123, let's organize it under your name and I'll help.
