2516Did I mention how much I like that show.
Well around 6:30 2 judges came by my car and told me NOT to leave. Felt threatened, lol
Then half hour later one took a look under front of my car. Fortunately I had just re-detailed it and some may know, sent stuff out for powder coating. Guess it paid off because he announced that the tie breaker between my car and I think black GTO was attention to details.

Then 7:45 they told me to move my car to front near tables. Boy the pressure.

Then @ 8pm (some asked earlier when does show end) they 1st announced ~ 540 cars today, gate receipts of ~ $30k going to good charity.
Then awards:

I WON Best of Show, again. Plus $100.

And judge gave an envelope for special invitation to a 50th Mustang anniversary block party in Newburyport on August 14.

So all in all nice day, Love Skips show...
And nice to see you all again now that my car is back together.

You definitely deserve all that and more. Imagine how much more time you could have spent detailing if you didn't have to fix my trailer and help me at racing :)
Now on to that Orange Leaf Cruise Night!!!

Todd because you asked.
I just got a call from Newburyport organizer tonight. Wes was giving me my "invite only" details I need to know for this Thursday's downtown afternoon event. Part of this event is a special display of the 50th. cars from 64.5 - 2014 will be set up I'm told. I'm part of that. That'll be on Prince Place just off State St.
I'm told several thousand folks will go thru this area on Thursday late afternoon with some concert @ 7pm. So it says in Whips Wheels.
I'm told to be there by 3pm. Perhaps I'll see a familiar face or two. Weather looks to be ok. Again this Thur 8/14. Other stuff & shops besides car show going on.
