"events" list(and Mt. Washington)

[Dan Simoes]

My thinking here is that some people will gladly travel 10-15 hours to
attend an event, while others have no interest in the social aspect of
the lists, and are just here to get information about their cars.

Local lists are OK, but consider that people from NH regularly travel to
CO for driving schools.  So I think having one list for social events
would cover it all.  

I'm flexible here of course.
