BTW. I can get the Novistretch off and on by myself. 
Put it on for the trip to car show on Saturday. Took it off once I got there. No bugs! Full of cottonwood fluff and other stuff tho. So it saved me some front end cleaning.

The People’s Choice trophy was 1$ a vote. lol.
if I’m going to attend though I want to be competitive. Within reason of course. Lol
The judge left and came back to my car 3 times…I want to know what the criteria was. And where I was short.
1-didn’t “clean” under the hood. Dusted it briefly. But it’s not dirty normally. I keep it pretty clean.
2-hatch area was cluttered. And. Wasn’t as clean as it should/could have been.
3-should have had tire shine w me.
4-wheels were thoroughly cleaned day before. Even the barrels. And the caliper covers shined up. Wheels Needed cleaned again when I got there.
5-cleaned wheel wells and used cleaner on the spats so they were black and no sign of horse sh*t smh
6-cleaned the rubber thingies on front end so they were black.
7-had the bra on it on the way there so no bugs Spent a bunch of time day before on front end. Had it on the lift.
8-spot cleaned skirts and splitter and mirrors. Love the carbon flash when it’s clean. So sparkly.
Those are the things I recognize. But what else?

Last time out I got busted because the wheel barrels were dusty, okay. I'm not taking them off at the show. I hadn't thought of this, but the inside of my gas tank door area hadn't been cleaned. Once I realized that we were down to judging the cleanliness of the area inside the gas tank door, I called it quits. I like driving a lot more than I like cleaning and I'd much rather win a trophy in autocross than cleaning ability. Unfortunately, we haven't had autocross at any of the car shows I've been to lately, so I enter the "just for fun" section and contribute to whatever the cause is.
The Corvette folks were friendly and there were actually people there that I knew so it wasnt a wasted day- at all. I had fun. The autocross thing is legit but I dont want to beat my car up. I go and watch my car club buddies beat up their cars and ride along (if I have my dramamine- LOL).

Same on the barrels. They were dusty- I had driven an hour to get to show. I did wipe the outside of the wheels down-again- I wasn't even going to do that but I was just sitting, decided in for a penny in for a pound right?
