Trophy Hunters

Got a guy I work with caught the muscle car bug right after I got my Dart. He searched all over in a few states and ended up with a 68 camaro, practically restored. So he did some minor painting of parts, cleaned it slightly, painted the bottom with POR15. Anything major like recover the seats, or remove the engine, repaint it and put a Chrome Eddel intake on he paid someone else to do.
This guy then caught the TROPHY bug. He wanted to win trophies so bad at car shows. He would ask people who won what they used and how they did things. Then he would study where to park and when to get to the show. Soon he started winning and wouldn't go anywhere unless there were awards and if he had a chance one.
Fast Forward to this year, He wins a few awards. The last 3 places he goes to he didn't win anything, one show the judges walk RIGHT PAST his and a few other trophy hunters cars...NOW...he wants to sell his car because he didn't win anything.

AWWWWWWW...poor baby! Didn't win a trophy!!!!
Get a life, with all the problems this guy has with his family and here at work, ya figure a day away from everything, just him and his wife enjoying peoples company, good food, good music, benefiting a church no less and he has to create problems!!!!


Stamp collecting is a good hobby!!

During my AutoCross days we had a guy in our club like that, had a real nice Pantera. Anyway, we had a show at the local mall, in the winter and in-doors. We decided we would keep things low key so we had one award which was people's choice. The car that won was my buddies MGB road race car. The Pantera owner was PO'd and really made a fuss and really embarrassed our club membership as well as himself. Anyway, at the next meeting we have him a special award for his car, a bowling trophy for best of show.
