Good reason to enter car shows...

We attended the Wheels for Wishes car show yesterday for a great cause Make A Wish Foundation - they raised over $1200.00 for the kids and we had a great time. I won this as a door prize which was pretty
sweet:



Then the Fit won this:



There were several tuners from VW, Audi, Infinite, and several Hondas even my favorite a CRX. One of the kids who was given his wish from the foundation from our area helped with the judging for the speciality trophies. This makes number 13 trophy so far - we have two more shows and that will be it until next year. The GD3 is still hanging in there.

Cat, I love seeing you winning all of these trophies and having such a great time.... Keep it up, it must be therapeutic for me because I end up with a smile on my face every time you post a picture of a new win.

Thanks All! I have to say that the MR Fits puts a lot of smiles on the faces of the judges because you just don't see modified Fits in our area and certainly not one being shown by a 54 year old lady! We have gone to 10 shows this year alone and the Fit trophied in 8 of them - that is a pretty good record!

I promise not to experiment on the Fit with the new socket set but I do plan to put them to use when I get my project car going.

Yup! You guessed it! My first choice is a CRX hatch, or a S2K - will do a nice restore from inside and out. That will become the show car that I will enjoy my retirement years showing at local car shows. I can't think of a better way to enjoy it than showing a nice Honda with all the young tuners - those guys keep me young at heart!
