<VV> Car Display

[Mike Kost]

I have never entered the car display. If I am going to be tied down by 
showing my car and it is in good enough shape to be shown it might as 
well be in the concours. My car has been trailered to all of the 
conventions I have attended except Syracuse but anyone who knows my car 
knows it is NOT a trailer queen. I have ALWAYS entered the autocross, 
econorun, and rally although I have rarely have competed in the show. As 
others have said, it would be difficult to come to the convention with 
my wife and 3 teens driving my Corvair and be prepared to fully 
participate in the driving events at the level I want to participate at. 
I come expecting to win the autocross (only beaten by Seth Emerson and 
Bert Swift) and the econorun. When I run the autocross I push the car to 
the very limit and in doing that sometimes things break. With a trailer 
I can always get home (unless the trailer breaks like it did twice on 
the Oklahoma Turnpike on the Flagstaff trip).
