I don't think I have missed an Anniversary show yet; but don't think I will be going to Birmingham. The MCA doesn't judge the cars in the same manner as other National and Grand National Shows and therfore doesn't give you credit toward their grill medallion. So, why tow my car that far for nothing???
I did not get my car out for any MCA shows this year and it doesn't look any better for '09. The one show I considered for '08 filled to capacity b/f I registered, and the one show for '09 conflicts with the Carlisle All-Ford Nationals. I am going to concentrate on AACA shows for the time being.
