You are right about the trophy..This was my biggest suprise a few weeks ago as I entered a Mopar Only show..I entered the 1975 and newer stock class. There were a couple Vipers along with 30 other various Dodge and Chrysler cars in my class. When the award presentation was almost over, I thought I'd not placed at all..Then when they announced the "Best in Show" and called my name, I was totally shocked..The trophy almost didn't fit in the car with all my other display/prep supplies I carry along. That thing is almost 5' tall..It was a very nice feeling to know they voted mine the best of the best..
Many of the cars I compete aganist are only driven on weekends or seldom at all. I drive my car 40 miles every day and keeping it spotless is quite a challange..I guess thats why I feel good when I'm able to place high in a show.
