Here's my 2 cents

I felt there was no problems up until say about 1:30 or 2:00. The meet was from 12 -3.
So, do the inconsiderate trouble makers show up fashionably late intentionally? Cause all the "good" clubs or members pre-met and came out super early. They came organized, well behaved and in friendly spirits.

Well the other thing was we decided to call the volunteers back by 12:00 so that we could give a chance for them to walk around and enjoy themselves. It was a decision that was ok to me because everyone was civil at the time. As soon as we noticed that mood of the meet was overtaken by high revving, wheelies and stuff.. I grabbed my traffic vest and few volunteers to keep the peace.

And, you know, I understand there are the 1-2 strong revs to show off the hard work done to your cars engine. For me, that is ok. But there are some revs which are done with the intent to showboat and feel completely inappropriate.

Call me weird, but it's like you can almost hear the message the rev conveys according to its sound.
Like a guy cutting into your lane without looking. There's the light tap of the horn which says "hey there buddy. Watch it, you almost hit me there. Don't do it next time". And there's the HONNNNNNKKK to say "Hey asshole! U almost killed me!!
