Wild Bills gives us a clean parking lot, and expects it in same condition next day. All the other expenses are out of my pocket including cops (Gwinnett PD is more than than $20-$30 per). As a example: Just like how you rent a empty house and have to vacate it same condition.
Personally, a $2 fee per spot is a small price to pay to go to a meet that will be much more organized, cleaner, and safer. The Varsity meet is a prime example of what can happen down the road...when it started as a VW/Audi meet years ago to the point of being closed due to problems. People that do enjoy going to these meets should be thankful that Wild Bill's allows the parking lot to be used. Since the previous two Thursdays meets started having issues, then some dynamics need to be changed to prevent future issues. If it continued then Wild Bill would not allow the meet to continue just like the V and BP meets. So if you don't like meets, don't go or comment on how a meet is being organized. If you can't afford $2 per week, then you have more things you should be focusing on then a meet. Plus, when I hired Gwinnett PD in the past, it was $45/hour per officer...so that adds up quickly when you have multiple officers.

On the flip side, we will be selling HID products at every meet at discounted prices. Need anything audio, video, alarms, tv brackets, etc we can bring it too and sell it at a discounted price. In addition, we are doing a weekly drawing for free and discounted products. All you need to do is put your name on the list at the DropGearz tent with David. The winner gets to choose his prize from several options...most of them being free. So you can pay $2 per spot, come buy discounted products and possibly when free products.
