Viroqua Eagles show

[thekcarguy]

I got done work early so I figured I would take the 81 Reliant to the show.I went past there about 8:00 this morning, no one was there, I arrived around 10 very small show this year..they didn’t advertise well so the show was a mess. But here is the part that steamed my clams, I entered the young adult class, my car is a weekender/nice weather car/ Show car. A kid pulled in with his daily driver 1987 Pontiac Firebird, he had no display, no hood open or anything, and he still won…I got 2nd, kinda insulted in a way. another example was a shelby super snake with 70 miles on it..he lost to a spray bombed 1990 Honda.. Then they allowed a daily driver suburu station wagon in the show….WTF?

I am done going to this show, it’s judges are poor and do not know cars..

but on the plus side it was free..

Was this a judged show? Or was it participant judged? I could see these scenario’s happening with participant judging, as friends will come in and vote for you, but if it was a judged show and a team of judges allowed this you won’t have to worry – Because this show will not continue in the future.

The show was judged by the people running the show, it was not car folks from the parts store or people that know their shiet.. There were about 20 cars there…compared to like 50 the first year.. Im not going next year..the judges were a couple of older ladies two guy’s…They just did a quick glance and checked off the sheet and went to the next car, I wrote them an email about it….
