Default 1st trophy

Well I finally got to take my car to it's 1st car show this year. Just a small local show with around 200 cars. It seemed like any weekend there was a show I had something planned. Much to my surprise I took 1st place for stock Corvettes My 1st trophy. What a great feeling. I always went to the shows to just hang out, talk and check out the great cars, but never won anything. It looks like all the work I have been doing on it has paid off.

Congrats on the win. Doesn't sound like a small show to me with 200 cars to be chosen and you got a 1st. That should be a good reason to be very happy. To me, it is easy to see why you won the trophy, you have a great looking vette.
