Thursday afternoon and Friday. Any car being judged HAS to be there Friday. Lots of folks head for home Saturday.

Unfortunately, there's a lot of selfish ****** (there, I said it) who only pull their car out of the trailer on Friday for judging. You won't see their car on Thursday, and you won't see it on Saturday. But I think the OCA is taking some steps to prevent or discourage this?

Brian as much as I agree with you the cars are the property of the owners and this is for now a free country. They have the investment in their property not anyone else. I'm more interested in the car and not the trophy but having a trophy and high points does increase the value of the property.

I will have my 71 W30 convert there as my driver for the week. So it will be out every day weather permitting. That means no hail or heavy rain otherwise there to have fun.

I totally agree; the owner has every right to display his car only on judgment day. But, as with all things in life, a person should ask if his actions are sustainable. I get it that some people go to car shows just to get trophies. But the car SHOW would cease to exist if there were no cars shown.


Anyway, I better stop throwing stones, because I'm living in a glass house. I seldom even bring my car to shows, so I'm even more selfish. Sorry if I offended anyone.
