Now now Denis. You guys know it is Eureka. And judging up there has
always been a problem, but we are all in there for the FUN of it. And
Denis, as to straight panels; you block sand and you block sand and you
block sand..........till you dream of it and you never want to see another
body panel. But it ain't really that straight. They didn't come from the
factory straight in the first place.

There were some people that were serious and criticizing about whether you can win Best in Show without winning their class. I talked to one of the bigwigs today and was told exactly what I had already guessed, that there was a set of judges for your class and a set of judges for Best In Show. They simply stood by the judges' position. You will hear the same thing at the Oscar shows when a film will win Best Picture but not Best Director. How can a movie win Best Picture and not Best Director? I don't know, but there it is.
The only time I won at ES was second place for "under construction". I lost first place to a friggin' dune buggy. How can you tell whether a dune buggy is finished?
I think that the Zone is always a top show car, and I believe that I may never have seen or will ever see a restoration as good as Sammie's. I am mystified at how straight the metal on the doors were. Like I said before you guys just piss me off when I look at Murray and I look at your rigs. It just pisses me off.

Kat usually gives great trip reports, but that one has to be a classic. It made me feel like I was there. I laughed, I cried, it became part of me.
