For example, there is a People's Choice award where all car owners and spectators vote by ballot on the car they liked best. At the 2009 show, the President told me later that my car was one vote short of winning that award (I never vote) which surprised me since it's always a Gullwing or similar that is chosen. It must be the color and the lack of dirt.
I intend to post pictures of the 2011 show in two weeks but I'll forewarn you since I would hate to bring on one of your spells.
