The way they awarded the trophies was Runner Up = 3rd Place; Outstanding = 2nd Place and Best = First Place. Just thought I would share...
Very nice! Where did you get those wheel chocks?

I made them. Got them off of ebay...they're plastic and were white with the Dunlop logo on them. I painted them with primer then with red paint that sticks to plastic. I own a sign shop so it was easy to produce the Corvette logo on them. They come apart in the middle and store easily. I saw them at another car show and thought it was a GREAT idea. I get more comments about them than just about anything else on the car.

I've never been after trophies for mine, but having gotten one anyway, it is a great feeling. Congratulations!
