Default 2015 Brampton Corvette Show

I forgot to bring my camera, so I just took a few cellphone pics at today's show.
Looked like around 75 Vettes showed up.
I was surprised to be awarded sponsor's overall pick.

Great show - weather held out. Only downside like most shows is 95% of all winners belong to clubs, with no exception on this one. Noticed this in my Mustang days and now in the Corvette world. Oh well, more important to spend good times with corvette friends anyways and shoot the breeze

Those are unfair remarks.
I've been to shows where every award was given to the host club's members. (I guess that's what you mean by your 95 % number)
The Brampton Club does the complete opposite.
They award no trophies to their club members.
The fact that registrants may or may not belong to clubs has no bearing
on any awards.

Great show, great organizers, nice people in attendance...period.

You have your opinion to which I disagree (I was there) my friends and I in certain classes knew which cars should win but yet we guessed before it was called out. Like i typed, we heard so and so " and in 1st place, from the 'Durham Corvette club etc........" Again 95% is a guess, ok, maybe 85% or if there were 7 classes at 1st and runner-up (so 14), I would guess 10-11 were in clubs.
