Gentlemen, this is what I propose.
I would like to do the Awards for the event. I would do basically do what we had for 09. Except, I will not be doing the R/C cars unless someone wants to pay for them. I managed to get the vendors to pay for them. Best of Show Best -6 Best -6 Female Best-4 Best -4 Female Best Conversion Best Non NARP Best Paint Best Engine Bay Best Interior Best Patina (I used Best Preserved, but Lisa got 50% of the votes so I've changed the title) Best Supporting Actress Most Potential Long Distance Driver Long Distance Traveler That Guy (We have been doing this award at some of the events, I'm not sure if we should) And Recognition Plaques for the supporting staff. I think it would be nice if we could recognize Lisa, she must be doing 8 or 9 thousand birthday greetings annually by now. I'll send her a PM to find out if she will be able to made the trip this year. I would Love to do more awards as the more we put out there the more people come home with something. So use your imagination and add more classes. At this point I have enough Oak to do plaques of the above so the only thing that should cost is the engraving. Speaking of the coast. The R/C cars were over $400, Lisa's was about $60 and I would be happy to cover Hers as I will do something special for her. I would like to do something about the coast of the engraving, we can work it out when we find out much it coasts. As I recall the engraving for 32 awards we gave out were $239. There are some rules that go with this and I will get into that latter. So, I need your input here, I realize that this is a lot of stuff but The Awards Ceremony is one of the most important parts of the event. Getting called up in front of the group is a rush that should be shared by all. The more people we recognize the more people go home happy. Sorry about the extra long winded post. Joe |

Excues me but I totally forgot about this having a race and that is another set of awards.
Some questions about that. Of course TTOD. Do we class cars? If so how many awards per class? Should we have an award for Best Race Car in the Show and Shine? |

Joe, I agree with you on recognition for Lisa and the site supporting staff.
I was talking with Dan Dixon (Danno55) and he had volunteered to help with the awards. RRC10 Keychains He should be weighing in here soon. I am thinking he may be able to do some engraving? I personally can help you out with some funds if you need for any materials. Let me know Joe. |

I agree the more people that go home with things the better. I think that is enough awards to vote on though. We will have plenty of door prizes for everyone to get something. So I don't think we need to add more except for the AutoX. I'll start another thread for the AutoX planning.
On the prizes. Joe did I understand you allready bought the RC cars? If you are allready putting money out for awards we need to plan for that. I don't expect that to come out of your pocket. While we don't have funds coming in yet. If you put money out you will be reimbursed. We need to discuss money being spent for WCR. I am happy to have you take care of the awards. I know as Drew said Dan Dixon volunteered his help with awards too. I'd like to have a WCR keychain for all registered participants. |

Thanks Guys. I have no money in any of the this. The wood I will be using has been up in my rafters for many years. I would only build the cars if we get sponsors for them and we might have a hard time getting the bodies for them. So R/C cars are a stretch at the least. So, I have no plans to do R/C Cars.

The R/C cars are cool but I think we can have nice awards without them. So the Plaques will take care of that then? Besided the engraving maybe Dan will have something that could go on them too? We shall see but thanks for stepping up & volunteering to do the plaques. This is going to be great |

Sorry to hear that Joe. Thank you for all you have done and I enjoyed your company at WCR2010. Your a great guy!
Did we (the site) just lose Joe? Could it possibly have anything to do with this? Black list thread This post has been edited by montoya 73 2.0: Jan 11 2011, 12:02 AM |

Ok I'll take care of the Awards.
I handled trophies for our roadrace club for 7 years so I think I can handle it. 110 trophies 6 times a year! However I don't think everyone should get an award. I think the more doorpizes the better, but I think the award list Joe had is a bit much. What say you? Here is what I propose. Best of Show Best -6 Best-4 Best Conversion Best un-restored Best in progress Longest Distance That Guy Not sure how many you need for the AX? Also do we need awards for the people that put on the WCR? I don't. Before I can do anything I need a budget??? Sooner the better. |

I am fine with a few less & what you listed above. As far as a budget for them what did you do for your road race club? Is $200 realistic for all 8 awards? I don't think any of us needs an award for getting the WCR organized. I could care less about that. I just want people there & to have another great 914 weekend. So to be as precise as I can John! I agree with your list of awards above. I am good with you spending up to $200 on the awards. I will work that into the budget. If you need more please let me know! Did I do better at answering your question this time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Did I do better at answering your question this time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Yep! Except I need a list of the AX awards. 200 will be close. The engrave piece alone are 8 bucks each I think. I'll just order those on the internet. I will be making the trophies myself but I do have some shipping expenses for some parts I'm getting for free. So there's 8 on the list. How many AX? I would say between $175 and $300 someplace, depending on how many AX Does anyone have any clutch release forks lying around? I need a few more. Also anyone have a few Matchbox teeners they want to donate? Need one of those for each trophy.. I have 7 but thats all I have. These will be unique trophies (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) |

I am sure I can supply some clutch forks. I'm not sure on the AutoX trophies. Maybe one for Top time of the day, overall winner & Best rookie? Not to sure on it but I think 2 or 3 trophies for the autoX is fine. I will plan on $300 for the trophies in our budget. Thanks for taking the awards on John on. I'll try to get Britains input on the autoX awards.
Hey John I am going down to the track next weekend. To check it out overall, meet with Drew & the guy from the track. I know it is a drive but you are welcome to come along if you have the time. Hopefully Britain can chime in with some thoughts on the autoX awards |

Awards for the AX depends on how we want to divide up the classes.
Here is one idea: Conversion Car Class Winner 6-Cylinder Car Class Winner 4-Cylinder Car Class Winner Not sure how to determine fastest rookie. We could do a people's choice or something. -Britain |

I think the bulk of people going could care less about it. I think many of them may be tough to even get on the track. I think having plenty of fun run time for them should cover it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) . I'll lean on your expertise there though. Haven't been to enough of them personally to really have a feel for how to do it. |

This was a huge competition back when it was the West Coast Classic days. Not sure how this crowd is though.

I can engrave/sandblast/etch mugs or pint glasses, if you'd like. I'll probably do some for door prizes as well.

If you want to encorporate them into awards get with John. I'm not sure what he has in mind but he may figure a way to use them. We appreciatte all your input & help Mark (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

I would say lets do as many as you like for door prizes. People got those last year as trophies. So I'm thinking something different for this year. Can you also engrave the standard trophy plates? 1x8 or whatever? What about a bottle? Like the bigger bottle of champagne? One of those etched would be cool for the fast time at the AX I got a trophy like that some years ago roadracing and its still one of the coolest I have. Custom 4 color label and an etching on the neck. For the other show and shine awards I am still working on it. Costs should be a bit cheaper than I said. The engraving plates are pretty cheap. |

I can engrave anything that will fit in my bead blaster. I just have to cut a vinyl sticker to mask off the portions to be 'untouched' then give it a quick squirt of glass bead, and then pull all the masking off and clean up.
