Do you avoid or embrace car shows?

There's pretty cool "all Italian" show at a car dealership near my home; lots of Ferraris, Lambos and the like. Most of the people there are pretty cool, but there was one woman there that pissed me off. She saw my car and remarked how much more reliable her 20 year old Ferrari was! I took my car to this dealership for work and I saw her car there being serviced. $28k to replace the timing chain and injectors at 18k miles! Horse's Ass!

Todays little show at a local middle school. They had a modern muscle class but I didn’t win. Honestly, I’m not sure people know what my car is, they look at it Almost like I came up with my own fender badges or something…

As I said in an earlier post here on this thread, I'm not interested in spending all day at a car show or getting trophies but this Saturday I did enter a show because it was for a good charity and dammit, I gotta admit I was a little upset when I didn't get in the top 50 out of about 75 cars. Well not really upset but more surprised.

There were mostly newer stock Mustangs, a few GT500's and other cars while I had my '03 Sonic Blue Terminator that is super clean. Figured a clean low mile Terminator would at least get top 50 out of 75 but I guess not. Oh well, it was still a good show for a good cause and I got to talk to some good people.

So which car won?

No idea. They announced category winners as car numbers but didn't describe the vehicles that won. I'm guessing it was either a C7 Z06 or a new ruby red Camaro SS with all kinds of graphics on it. It was judged by volunteer high school band parents so they may have judged just by which car was the prettiest.

best just to enjoy the show and leave the trophies to someone else... but... I know the feeling. It does grind a little....
