Took the snake to the 2003 Florida Car Show for Special Olympics Florida on Saturday. The show was sponsored by the Orange County Sherrif's Office, Citrus County Sheriff's Office and the Altamonte Springs Police Dept. I went with a couple of my buddies from the CFFB club since it was for a good cause. Entered the snake under the "muscle" category(5 to 6 categories total).
There was alot of muscle out there from souped up Vettes, Camaros, Road Runners, Impalas, Cobras etc. Couple of tricked out Ricers and several show trucks too.
Judging was done by the Special Olympic Athletes themselves, with the best of show being picked by one of the Sheriff's Motor Sergeants (who better to pick the hottest car of the day than a man who is always on the lookout for the Hot Ones)
The winners in each category were announced and then the Best of Show/Law Enforcement Choice. Was about to pack up and leave and heard the announcement over the PA that the Viper had won Best of Show. Went up to the podium and picked up the snake's first trophy (this is the first show I have entered).
Everybody was pretty cool about it and were giving the snake all the props. The kids loved the car and you could see the excitement in their faces whenever they approached the car. It was a good feeling especially when you put a smile on one of these kid's faces. I am glad that I was in a position to make their day.
Overall, there were about 75 to 100 cars there. Chalk one up for the Viper and its gawk factor. Kinda funny as several people that I have often seen on the road were there and they came up to see what I had under the hood. They were impressed with the Roe SC and the other mods the car had. The HRE's were a hit.
Brought the trophy home and my 2 year old daughter claimed it right away. Oh well, another smile on another kid. Fun day in all.
