We thoroughly enjoyed the two shows. Especially my 16 yr. old grandson.

I had to buy a raffle ticket on a 1997 Shelby Mustang to support St. Jude.

Default car show questions

I just bought a 2004 Z06, triple black, 6 speed. I have been to a 3 car shows. They are fun, I learn alot. The last weekend was a little confusing for me. I was placed in the 84 to present that included stock to modif. I felt that it was unfair to be in the same class with other C5's and C6's with thousands of dollars of extras, from new paint, airbrush, complete chrome engines. Mine is all sock, not even a slight decal under the hood or on the interior. I confussed on what can be done to still be stock. I want to add red letters on the glove box and a
corvette decal on the headliner. The judges spent about 30 sec. looking at my car and about 20 min. on the C5 next to me, it had lots done and the new the owner. The judges wouldn't give the results of my judging so I could improve my car. Any information will help.
