Re: [DML] DCS 2010 questions

[Kevin Abato <delorean@xxxxxxxxx>]

The lack of official car count was due to me.   I go and photograph all the
cars license plates on saturday and give ken the count.   The show is too
large for me to cover everything.  In Gettysburg I had a friend help, and
didn't have a baby in tow who kept us up at night
   I was very overwhelmed with trying to capture everything and still be a
husband and father at the same time.
Enter Marc Levy.....   He saw me running crazy on saturday and took my
camera for an hour to let me unwind and eat lunch.    Marc photographed all
the license plates and vin plates at the show.   There were 89 plates
officially photographed, but Marc later realized he missed one section of
the lot.    I would assume that with those missed cars, and perhaps a few
that were out on the road at the time, we had 100-105 cars in attendance for
the show.
I just had a chance last night to do the official photo count.    Sorry for
not having it on Saturday.

I had a great time at DCS 2010! Thanks to Ken, Marc, and everyone else
who worked so hard so the rest of us could just enjoy the show.

I do have a couple of fun follow-up questions from the show, though.

-- What DCS show so far has been the largest in terms of number of
people and number of cars?   How many cars/people came to DCS 2010
(Ken usually announces this during Saturday dinner).

-- In the Delorean Archive, there were a couple of letters between
Penthouse to DMC about a contest where Penthouse gave away a Delorean
in a sweepstakes...  Penthouse wrote along the lines of "We talked
about doing last year, and now that we've given away a Delorean.. when
can we expect delivery?"... and DMC basically responded "Wait, what?"
 I'm curious how this ended up.. did DMC send them a car in exchange
for "promotional consideration" or was Penthouse left holding the bag
on the sweepstakes?

-- And finally, I saw the Toy "Claw Crane" Vending machine in the
hallway during the show with an "Out of Order" sign on it... and then
on Sunday, I saw Ken loading it up into a truck.  Is this some inside
joke or other Delorean reference I don't get?  Seems like a long way
to transport the cabinet which doesn't work.  Was it at other shows,
too?

thanks,
