Title: What do you do with all your trophies?
Post by: ecumike on September 29, 2003, 09:27:22 AM
OK, now that racing's over I can safely ask this w/o jinxing myself.  ;D

What do you guys do with your plaques?.. stack 'em in a closet?  Use 'em as bookends?  Put them in a glass case?  Hang them up?

Interested in hearing what everyone does with them, and maybe get an idea on what to do with mine.

Yep, wall paper for us too.  

With racing, I cannot afford to buy paint to remodel so this will have to do....    ;)  ;D

P.S.  If need to level your work bench, these work great for that also.

DOOHHHH.

Yea, I saw Daniele and James there this weekend, but didn't get to stop and talk to them till after they were all packed, couldn't find them.

I thought you had it wrapped up, but since Daniele showed up, it looks as if he took the championship.

BTW - I didn't race at all this weekend.

I leave the national and a couple of regional championship trophys ina case.  The rest of the regionals, and the weekend wood...end up in boxes.  Er....lots of boxes.  

Then again....sometimes I use them to stabilize bodywork that I'm painting.  :-)

The points are incorrect. The best I can tell he still takes it. The bad part of it is that if the results and points standing had been posted, I would have realized I needed to get my butt down to N Fl. rather than sit on the couch, drink beer and eat potatoe chips. If I had gone to N fl., finished behind Daniele, given the results from VIR. I would have won by three points.

He did a great job this season and gets my congrats. I couldn't touch him at RR.

Pick off the metal and use them for firewood to heat my home since I can't afford the gas bill ;)

(yeah right.....  I'd freeze to death by mid November)

Like everyone else, I have a wall full.  Actually it's a border around the top of the walls in my home office.  I'm 2/3 the way there, and get to tack up 4 more after this past weekend...

Computer room wall is where the plaques end up and the trophies go on a big wall unit in there.  But now I may have to toss some of them at Sad Brad when he is sucking 748 dust in the TC at Daytona! ;) ;D
