Default MegaMeet Location Change?

I would personally like to see this event held at Sonoma, but I have received numerous messages from people balking at the entry fee. I've had a backup venue ready, so I'm just going to put this to a vote.

Options:

Blackhawk Museum - Danville, Ca (https://goo.gl/maps/aZb7q)

Pros: Free, central location, car museum, numerous restaurants within walking distance

Cons: Public parking lot


Sonoma Raceway - Sonoma, Ca (https://goo.gl/maps/0odtI)

Pros: Private paddock for parking, parade laps (40 mph!!!), watch NASA HPDE / TT

Cons: $10 per person gate fee (goes to NASA), further for those in the south bay

At this point it only seems sensible to stay with Sonoma. Not sure why 10 dollar is to much for people. It is what it is and those who gripe just don't go simple as that.

Thanks, Lee for all the work you have put into this!

$10 doesn't seem that pricey to me on what could be a pretty epic meet. I voted for keeping it Sonoma. Blackhawk would make a pretty good meet in the future if the Bay Area wants to have any future meets with the Sac crowd.

If people drive generously for a little they can easily save up $10 of gas money to invest that on the event...

$10 shouldn't be a problem to most S2000 owners...

In my opinion, just stick with Sonoma. $10 isn't gonna hurt.

I'd be willing to pay $10 for the parade lap alone.

Sonoma

We will have access to the upper paddock for our cars, and probably the entire rest of the facility for ourselves, so plenty of shaded areas.
