Default How about a truck show?

One thing I missed out on last year was getting a good look at all the rigs. Maybe it would be cool to have a "Show N Shine" and maybe a vote for the top 5 trucks by popular vote or something. Clean 'em up, put 'em on display, let everyone see everyone elses hard work up close!

It would be cool to see over 150 crawlers lined up in rows at the MSD shop

something like that would have to happen like thursday night.

What about a show and shine for any class-not just the 1.9 and 2.2 or even sticking to scale rigs, but just any radio controlled vehicle that someone brought gets put into a group with all the drivers in the background. It would make for one awesome magazine pic

Great idea. I hadn't even thought of the magazine aspect of it. It would also give the photographers a chance to shoot some close-ups if they want.

id like this as well. not so much as a show, but so i can get pics, i dont want to be walking into some guys tent, or lurking the the back of there truck trying to get pics of all the awesome scalers, it would make it easy for everyone to snap pics of them all.

wouldnt even have to be a show, just a time dedicated to put ALL the trucks together (during good daylight) for a group shot, then let everyone walk amongst them to get all the close ups they wanted.

that is exactly what had planned, just like moab. Before everyone runs their junk, One big group pic for the mags, drivers and scalers.

we will have a box for everyone to vote for the concourse scaler also.

line up all the pretty cars and ugly guys and take a pic or 2 and then someone with a biased opinion votes on what the best one is. well that is how it works at most big race's I have been to dont think ben will have the biased judge part but you can count on ugly guys

Does the rig have to be entered in the event to be eligible again?

Best looking or favorite. A concourse judging is kie a car show.

must be entered in the comp to win, just like last year. this is a runners award, not a shelf queen award.

I still say we do an overall shot, with all of the RCs-crawler or not. Just have all the scale 1.9 and 2.2s in the center and then have a bunch of like 1/5 scales, supers, non-crawlers, etc. around them and all the drivers in the background.
