PA here.
I think we need to take this a little further somehow, and have a registration for each state, so that we can actually see who the other members are in our state. It would allow us to get together, plan activities, share swapmeet, car club, cruise-in, and carshow information, etc. Maybe sub-boards for each state, or some type of member list by state. Maybe somehow require the state as part of the registration process, and then allow access to it.
I know that there are a lot of times that events take place only 50 miles away, and no one is aware of them because the only way the info spreads is by word of mouth.
