The only trophy worse than the picture frame were the mason jars from two years ago at the PCA WGI race. It was literally a mason jar with a Porsche sticker on the lid.

Glad to help upgrade the trophies - now I just have to hope I earn one!

I think what Mike is asking is will all podium finishers get a trophy. I'm pretty sure every podium finisher gets a trophy but I will double check.

There have been far, far worse over the years. There was the one race where they only gave trophies to the top 3 overall in the group. There was the year that the entry gift was a glass fruit and class winner got a block of wood to put said glass fruit apon; it didn’t say winner, 1st, nada…it was literally a block of wood.

I would assume so, always has been that way, even if you are the only one in your class... Hence the special trophy!

VIR is booked every day from the end of FEB until DEC........
We/CVR at Lime Rock are on pace with recent years at 69 racers. To break even we need to be in the in the 100+ range with increased sponsorship (we are down right now anyone want to sponsor?). Our numbers usually jump up after your race. Good luck to us both.

Looking forward to the DE you added. My first visit to VIR.

Luigi... seems like you jumped the start a bit in the third sprint at VIR... and jammed it up so we were 4 wide at VIR in that last vintage/cup sprint......

if not..... GOOD START...
