People!! Come on!! This thread is to congratulate the winners and hope some will post pics of the winning car so we could see what they look like... I really didn't want this thread to turn into, "I'm disappointed", "You could of done better", etc thread..

I'll say this again, YES, I understand the car show was ran like shit and some people aren't happy with how it was ran nor the results. Its unfortunate, I understand, and I'm aware and planning to improve. Please, stop complaining as this is why every year I debate about doing this event year after.... I thought it stopped last year as I was telling people how VERY few complained last year... Seriously, its been a rough month and I know it wasn't ran the way some of you liked it. Again, I know and trust it will be ran better... IF I decide to do it... as I'm NOW debating!

Well we are the admins, Why don't we just make a seperate section for DGRR suggestions and move all the suggestion threads to it and keep this one ontrack with congrats and photos... I'll be happy to do it for ya say the word :)

Word! ha ha kevin, not that I am anybody but I agree. I want to see more pictures! Wish my sliver FD had those rear fender.

i had a blast and thought everything was well organized. i will be back every year with more and more people and cars from south florida. i host an event here every november and i know how you feel. don't try and please everyone. if they don't like the way something was not done, tell them not to show up next year!!!!

[QUOTE=Herblenny;116746]Few have wanted to know who won..

Here are the winners!

SA/FB

3. License tag #1734 - Not sure who's car it was


That would be me.

1st Gen. 1985 GSL-SE. #270. Ohio tag OURX7. Name: Brian Holmes. Columbus, Ohio.Attachment 7902

And THANKS Phil for taking the time to say congrats to us. I don't think anyone else in the situation you were in would have followed through with the event at all. But, let's face it: You could have timed the conception a little better! :rofl:

Most everyone that shows up puts a great deal of time, effort, and income on these little penile extensions (rotary powered or not). I, for one, am quite appreciative of the validation, not necessarily the recognition, from people that share my passion for these little automotive gems. So I'll leave it at that!

See you next year! God willing!

Sincerely Yours,

Sorry. Reading through all of the "suggestions", I forgot what thread I was in. :)


Congrats on the wins guys. Definitely some impressive cars at the show....

I enjoyed it that yellow 1st gen and silver fd were beautiful

2nd gen 1st place show winner, 1989 RX-7 Turbo, Pete Morel, Elkton, MD. Here's a link to some photos of me running the dragon...

I sincerely appreciate the recognition, but I'll be the first to admit I'm a bit perplexed as to why. While my car is a very nice example of a restored S5 turbo, I never considered it "show winner" quality. Guess I'm just a tougher judge. Anyway, it was a pleasure meeting all of you and I enjoyed all the conversations we shared about our common rotary powered obsessions!

Kudos to Phil & all the volunteers who ran DGRR-X. Given the circumstances Phil (i.e., conception planning :rofl: ), you ran a great event!

Regards,
Pete

your car is very clean and a great example of a 2nd gen. :icon_tup:

I was the judge of the 2nd generation cars. I did my best to dwendle down the best of the best inside and out FCs. If the interior wasnt finished or some things didnt coordinate, I didnt put them in front b/c of modifications. So don't take it personal if your car isnt 1/2/3 or mentioned. I am just picky about a nice, clean, well put together car so thats why the winner won :).

I'm coming back next year with a paint-job for that coveted "Other" trophy. :rofl:

wow , i'm shocked allen's car didn't atleast win something..

Was hoping the bikes would fill that position :)
