    As for my show. thanks for the support. I hope I can have someone run it this year. I certainly will not be able too. But if anyone can or knows someone who wants to try and run a show. this would be a great oppertunity to leardn. It wont be too hard alot of leg work but since we are on year 5 its pretty much good a good start and i have all the hook ups they will need. I just cant do it. :dry: I also dont want The other show in the area to think they have taken me out. that would kill me even more.

    I have offered assistance to him Zack, but he wants to do his own thing. so on that note I just stand back and attend the show

    I would have to say a few things in short amount of time in regards to hp in classes and people jumping classes and getting in classes to just win an award. Shame on you if you feel the need to lie or do that to win an award. You have to sleep with yourself at night and know that you did that to win an award. I think there is nothing wrong with having hp as part of a breakdown in a class no matter the size of show. You need to define what a muscle car is. A muscle car is not just a name, it is “MUSCLE” aka HP. I use Hp to break down a muscle car class at my car show for the reason of not having a car with 200 hp consider themselves as a muscle car. If they feel the need to lie about it that is just stupid. I have judges that look for these things granted not everyone knows every make and model of cars hp so we rely on the participant to be honest. If you notice at a show that a car is not in the correct class don’t complain about it after the fact go to a judge and speak up. As for calling it “bench racing” by defining a class that is silly too. It is simply a way to break a car class down. I try to please everyone out there that is why I have the breakdown in classes that I use. EVERYONE who puts on a show will tell you no matter what you do someone will not be happy. That is why every year I ask and put out a comment cards to all participants on how to improve the car show. some times they just say they dont like something and give no ideas on how to improve. Most others rant and rave about how great a show it was. I have 99% positive feedback for my show and for that matter almost all shows. I can say I I will say this is the first time I have ever had a complaint about a class for my show. I will be adjusting the classes a little bit next year but the hp with the muscle car class will stay. I do not think it is “bench racing”. I am only trying to explain my 2 cents on this subject. I am open to any and all assistance/ideas in making my and all shows better. :)

    B) It will hold off only 20-30 percent in the afternoon and they are isolated we will be keeping a close eye on it through the day though so if anything pops up we can speed everything up to get them out safe and sound. ;)
