I went to a few M&W Power Shows also way back when. But, I do not recall it being as spread out as the Rantoul show. I'd say if you only walked 9 mis @ Rantoul, you missed something. I'm sure we put more mis. than that on the UTV. I'm not an advocate either of carts & people. I've seen the difficulties caused @ the FPS, but I will say it worked very well this yr @ Rantoul. For the sheer number of carts, I saw no difficulties.
Yes, we'd obviously all be in better shape if there were no carts...or cars. Even more, no boats allowed on lakes, only swim from side-to-side....when you get tired of swimming, float on your back. But, if there weren't carts allowed at the show, I'm sure the absolute #1 complaint would be...."it's spread out too much...". Yes it is for a consolidated show-site, but it's primarily a farm on an airport. I'll commend the organizers @ Rantoul for the way the cart traffic was set up. They allowed it to work successfully.
