The plaques make great motorcycle kick stand supports for soft ground.  ::)

Becky said that I am going to be limited to hanging just the 1st ans 2nd place plaques. I acculimated quite a few this year.  ;)

Beats painting my home office...  I've got 2 walls done now.  Figure 3 more years and I'll have the room done and can work on a hall.

That`s something I`ve gotta see Jeff! It`s super hard to make a room look decent if you hang those damn things!

What does a first place plaque look like?  :'(

The ASMA "trophies" from the September race:





And the aftermath:



Roger has done a few cool awards, such as engraved glasses (martini glasses, beer glasses).  Just don't let Kane Laskey in when there is glass to be broken...

ASMA/ CCS trophies should be handed out to the winners of Saturday races that evening, so as to give the rest of us a shot on Sunday.

With our luck we would be handed 40oz beers (64oz for 1st place), custom engraved with a sharpie. Although we might be able to pay back to 10th place with the savings.

That actually may not be a bad idea!!! I would much rather be able to save money by drinking my winnings, than have a bunch of wooden plaques laying around in a box...

Don't give up on your dreams! If an illiterate like K3 can write a book, imagine what you can do!

I think plaques are a waste of money.  I'd rather they save that money and buy us a keg for the end of the day... seriously.  After you get your first win, the rest are pretty useless.  Vertical trophies are much nicer.  And who decided to go to fifth place?  All podiums are 3 places, so trophies should be too.

I don't understand the cheap plaques either.  I used to race bmx bikes (entry fees were only 10$!!) and we had awesome trophies.  ...and when we did have plaques, which I hate they were much, much nicer than any plaque I ever got road racing.  Cheap bastards.

I don't think the plaques are all that bad for an organization that is run out of a dudes garage.
