Way to represent!! That looked like a nice show with a lot of diversity.

I'm digging the "24 HR LeMans" paint scheme on the Silverado P/U. Very nicely done.

How do you like the car shows that use a "Best of XXX" format? The reason I'm asking is because that is the same format I use at our two big shows at Raceway Park. It seems like we get more happy showgoers that way as opposed to a "Top 3" in every category. After all, we do want people to come back.

They have 4 best of show Paint, Interior, Engine, Overall
and then top 100, 75, 50, or what ever depending on how many cars they think will be there. I was at a top 18 show last year and 400 showed up.
