Thanks guys! I'm not trying to thump my chest, but we're ALL proud of our cars. I doubt I'm the only one with something like this. I know there are plenty of you that have MANY more plaques than I do, and MUCH bigger trophies! It was the wife's idea actually. I think it looks kinda cool. Much nicer than it sitting in a closet gathering dust.....

Yeah Mark I've got a similiar setup too. I've even got my go-kart trophy from Boyce's birthday party up there lol ! My road racing school certificates, ORR speed trap certificates, GMHTP article etc. are all up there. I think we ALL should display our car/racing momento's somewhere so that when you walk in the door after a hard days work you can look up and remember why you got out of bed that morning

PS Your's looks very nice. I really like that pic of your car.

You pretty much said it all Bill. Got any pics? I hope to be able to add something from an open road race to the wall someday. But I'll never top that go-kart trophy......
