    Yeah, when I told them my club affiliation, they asked where the rest of the group was. They said y'all brought a good group down a couple years ago. They said they really missed not having all those 5th Gens at the show. I told them I would do my best to get a group of C5G's there next year. Hopefully this can be a outing for the club in 2014.

      Bill, I've never seen anything like this trophy. It's huge and is a nice looking piece of hardware. Even the trophies given out for first, second, and third place in all the classes were big and really nice. I wondered how they could do that financially, but they had sponsors for the categories. I was very impressed with how the show was ran. You need to come down here next year.

                  I had on my calendar for today to attend the MDA Cruisin' Towards Cures For Campers Car Show in Champaign. Got up early and the weather looked really questionable. I was almost ready to call it off and Melissa said, lets go. So we went and man am I glad we did.

                  The car show is held in the Hooters and Hardees parking lots. Got to meet 3 other 5th Geners from Camaro5 and Kathie63 (not Kathy63) from C5G. The rain held off all day until award time, but no way I'm leaving now.

                  I walked away with two awards and an invitation to the "Best Of The Best" car show held in October down in Brighton, Illinois. The Brighton Car Show is by invitation only by the individuals that put on the show. They go to several shows in several surrounding States and give out these invitations. Last year, they said they had 260 cars from seven different states. I think I have the numbers correct, if not, I'm close. Anyhow, I felt very privileged to be given this invitation.

                  First, my car was chosen for "MDA & CAMPERS CHOICE". Very fortunate and happy to be chosen out of every car in the show.

                  Second, my car won "BEST OF SHOW - MODIFIED" class. Man this trophy is unbelievable! I had to put the rear seat down and it still barely fit in the car. What a great honor because there were alot of nice cars there. Because of the rain, I didn't get to take a picture until we got back home.

                  So what a great day, yes? Well, that's not all. I also sold my chrome wheels and tires and the guy picked them up this evening. Now I have more mod money! Gave him a C5G card and told him about the club. Hopefully he'll show up on here. He lives in Elizabeth, Illinois.

                  Great day indeed with Melissa!
                  Way to go Freddie!! And just think if you decided not to go. You are going to have to start a trophy room or garage.

                      Oh wow freddie that is a really cool trophy! Your car is what I call a "crowd pleaser" so it's only proper they award you with trophies.

                      However you realize per Chicago 5th Gen rules whenever a club member receives an award you must buy the club drinks to honor your new prestige! It's the way of things.
