Tips for Winning Car Shows?
Re: Tips for Winning Car Shows?
Is your car free of big scratches, hazed headlights, wheel damage, etc? If so, you are good to go, just give it a good cleaning and wax job, make sure the black rubber trim is black, clean the interior and make sure you have a nice fire extinguisher. (some shows require them) Pick your class, there is usually a choice, import, stock Mopar, special interest and have a good time. You can always do a set of custom wheels, some engine bay dress up, some interior mods. You are usually allowed 3 mods and still be considered stock.

LOL George. I considered that, but I want to bring both and I *know* #5 will outshine my Belle Bleu every time. I really want to win with Belle Bleu, so I am not sure what I am going to do about that. Haha. I guess I'll get it figured out.

Good luck with your shows, don't get discouraged if you don't win right away. Make a small story board to tell people about your car and be prepared to talk about it. Learn all you can about it.

Many clubs are run by cliques, no good ideas unless it is one of theirs, members money spent on their expenses with little oversight.

I want a trophy though, lol.
Re: Tips for Winning Car Shows?
Why do you hate trophys? They are a visual representation of the "win" that you earned.
Re: Tips for Winning Car Shows?
A lot of those trophys are pretty tacky, my wife would not look at my darts trophys. I ditched them after retrieving them from the crawl space. I only kept a few nice ones.
Re: Tips for Winning Car Shows?
I hope that when I win won, it will be one I would be happy to showcase.
Re: Tips for Winning Car Shows?
Pretentious? What about them makes them pretentious? If you won them, shouldn't you be proud to display them? Please excuse my lack of familiarity about the way Car Shows work and are run. I am asking lots of questions because I want to learn the most I can about the Car Show arena.

She said it was either them or her that went, I tried but she did not fit in the trash can.
