For those who remember the swap meet at Charlotte, say prior to Covid, the changes are a bit disappointing. The track ownership has taken much of the area inside the track for other purposes- pushing much of the swap meet vendors into the large fields behind the track. Some vendors were upset when their prepaid fees were not refunded when the event was cancelled during covid. None of this is a reflection on the Region- they do the best they can with the cards they are given.
If you really enjoy the AACA car show, by all means attend. If you are looking for a top notch swap meet for hard core collectors, this may not be your event.
