    Ok, the skinny. After countless discussion with the participants, and renaming the show "Custom Dreams come True" or "Customer Apreciation day" I must say this much. The show was held by Simple and Twist. (sp?) A local promotion company that is "sponsored" by dream motorsports. I had some time to talk to the judges and I was fairly impressed (the judging sheet was the best I've seen in a while). They claimed to be impartial and came through when all our tent (Travis, Scott with the Evil 350, a burgundy 200sx and myself) topped our classes individually beating at least 1 Dream Motorsports car each.
    I don't think I saw one disapointed face when trophies were handed out, so I think everyone thought it was pretty fair. Elite took first in both represented classes and the head judge approached me and gave personal props on the Elite cars and may offer to give Travis some design work. Additionally, Scott took best of show and got a hell of a shout out on his car by the head judge.

    Oh and FYI, Travis is pretty down when sober. I left my Elite shirt at home in fear he would get drunk. Considering the area the show we were in I was not looking forward at being on the business end of a gang raping by association.

    Alright, I want to congrats my boys who took home awards.

    On a side note, I think we need to lay off Travis a little bit. Travis had a couple of shows that got a little out of hand but I am very impressed with how serious he has taken the team and how he wants to represent Elite at shows. I think all the alcoholic comments about Travis need to come to end, because I got stories on all you bitches. If I don't have a story on you, I will by the end of the year. hehehehhe. Seriously though, Travis is doing what he can to represent Elite well and we all need to have that attitude. Thanks guys for representing at the show.

    Most def, my comment was not meant to be derogatory, Travis and I had a great time (i even got him some potential design work). The above was actually something we joked about.

    I was not directing that towards anyone in particular. I just know that everyone gives Travis a hard time and I am just standing up and saying I have seen a difference in Travis's behavior and I think that the comments can fizzle out. He is doing what it takes to represent Elite well, and I appreciate it. Like I said before, I don't care if you want to drink at a show, just be able to control yourself. So far, everybody on the team has shown me they know how to do that and I appreciate it.
