I can't stand those paper peddlers.
LOL for some of the nice motorcycles I see at cruises.
The "paper brigade" roll up their car show flyers and insert them in their handlebars or anywhere else on the frame that will fit,when the owners aren't present.
The owners come walking up to their bikes to see a dozen 12" long paper tubes inserted into their rides like their decorating to go into a parade.

While individual action is certainly part of the problem...the folks who organize or run the events are equally responsible. Every person entering a show should be made aware of the &quot;rules of engagement&quot;...now I realize that for some local &quot;parking lot&quot; cruises this may not be practical, but for any sanctioned event, especially those with a centralized entry point there is no excuse. If a club or charitable organization is collecting entrance fees then they have an obligation to the participants to try and protect the cars from damage. I understand it may not be possible to prevent all of this kind of activity...but there is no excuse for not trying [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img]

I agree with all you guys and your comments but this is basically what car shows are about. Kids in strollers, people asking dumb questions although not dumb to them and flyer handouts. Just got to be careful and pick and choose the shows that are better suited. If the scenerio was not like this, there would be no more shows. Also, what determines a SuperCar? For Chevy what comes to mind &quot;quick&quot; for me is a 69 ZL-1 camaro or an L88 corvette.

Sammy since you are new to the site I'll take it easy on you...this site being called the Supercar Registry, the term Supercar used in this instance are for Supercars as defined by the site mission statement...&quot;Dedicated to the promotion and preservation of the Chevrolet dealer built Supercars and COPO cars&quot;...
