I think Goodie got it right. What may not be obvious, and is more apparent in their social media postings, is a vast majority of their content is written tongue in cheek. Combine that with an event that's designed for true exotics and looks to minimize on the asshatery or people who think their car is more special than it is, you get what looks like pretension. It's really just a bunch of volunteers looking to put together an event for really nice cars... and they get some REALLY nice cars on a routine basis; likely because they're rigid.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
