What the hell is up with this weather. For the past week I thought my Testiticles were frozen raisins and today I get swamp ass. Talcum powder or thermal underwear, not both, thank you very much.
Car Show 2010 was a blast to see and participate in. For an "Under New Management" Car Show, it was well thought out and went rather smoothly from what I can tell. Just because Mr. Matthews is a close friend, I am not sugar coating this in the least. In fact I may be a bit to harsh in my pointing out the few flaws that I saw and the few that were pointed out to me.
The classes were good and some work is needed on a couple, but all in all they seemed appropriate. Heard a few Complaints on the Tri -Five Class but nothing a swift kick in the ass wouldn't have cured. Egos and Arrogance were hand in hand on some things but were handled with more aplomb than I could muster on a good day. Registration went smoothly but seemed a bit crowded when a couple of big fellas were in line. My size or bigger.
Balloting was good, nicely broken up and votes were counted quickly. The usual suspects bitched and moaned about it and quickly realized it could be the reason they didn't get an award (as usual) during the Award ceremony. Wah! Maybe if more shows took to the split system there would less buddy voting.
The best thing was the fact that the weather provided a great day. The Landing and Charlie Beigg's provided us with a great venue. Ken Matthews and the All Clubs Crew did a fine job. The $15.00 Cheap Ass Trophies were nowhere to be seen and tomorrow is another day.
Good Job.

ReplyDeleteI would like to say "THANK YOU" to everyone that displayed their vehicles at CARSHOW 2010 the official count is 174 vehicles.
ReplyDeleteThere were many volunteers to thank for donating time before, during, and after the show, it is their efforts that make it possible to be successful and have a good time while enjoying new and old friends gathered together for a good cause.
I want to thank all of the class sponsors and the many businesses that donated items for the raffle table and the silent auction.
Of course, this show wouldn't have happened without the fine facilities and food provided by the Landing Restaurant and Charlie Beiggs Restaurant. When you patronize these establisments, mention the car show and thank them for for hosting Carshow 2010.
It is a pleasure for me to be associated with so many nice people, Thank You everyone.
Ken Matthews
