What trophy??

i still have all of mine. an acrylic plaque is still two side taped to a wall in my old bedroom at my parents house (been there since '91). my mom says i can't have it back until she feel like repainting the room, just in case it rips the paint off the wall trying to remove it.

If you'd used Trinity servo tape she'd have no worries. A clean pull every time!

The first trophy I won was for 2nd place in the 2wd A final, it was only a club meeting but it was my first ever venture out onto a proper outdoors off road track, i'm not sure if I've still got the trophy - it may have been thrown out recently as my dad has been sorting out the loft But there's definately a photo of me somewhere with the trophy & my Schumacher Cougar taken just after the meeting when we got home.... I can distinctly remember how excited I was & how proud my dad was of me

We seemed to get trophys for almost every meeting we went to (apart from midweek club racing) now it seems very rare to recieve one.... in fact I was supposed to have collected three trophies for various series wins over the last few years but I missed out on the presentation meeting for one & the other two the club just couldn't be bothered to buy any (despite their fairly high entry fee)

I still have on display the more 'important' trophys (or the ones that mean the most) at home on & in my cabinet in the living room

Found the photo;


I'm sure I saved that trophy, but can't seem to find it anywhere

P.S; what a spotty looking 'oik' I was lol!

I could care less for 'the win' or trophys now day but it is nice to receive something in return for a great day out at the track.

Here's my first trophy back in 1988 when my Optima placed in the 540 class at BORMAC back then.

i believe it was the late great "BIG JIM" who always use to say "yeah, we race toy cars for bowling trophies!" that last picture reminded me of exactlay that.

Yay, I got my first trophy last week at the 2012 vintage festival

Third place in pipe frame driving a Mugen Bulldog

(Cant decide if the trophy was worth the busted rollcage though lol)
