OOB

Was looking over the classes for OOB. And I must say, I am sorely disappointed in the organizers of this show. After 16 years you would think they would have figured some things out.

Like having a class for just 3 YEARS of STOCK Chevys, and another class for THE SAME 3 YEARS of MODIFIED Chevys, (that's TWO CLASSES for just THREE YEARS of ONE MAKE of vehicle) but only one class for almost 30 years of Street Rods - and with Street Rods so plentiful and popular. That is absurd! All I can think is that OOB organizers' favorite participants must own 55-57 Chevys.

Only one Mustang class, and it only goes through '79? What about the other 30 years of Mustangs? And just one class for ALL 56 years of Corvettes - how in the heck is a new Vette going to compete with a classic '53?

But they have FACTORY MUSCLE and a separate class for MOPAR - I'm sure this will be interesting, since many MOPAR are factory muscle! I can see the sparks flying now when a Charger enters in Factory Muscle.

It really is a shame that some show organizers just do not get it - they have NO clue as to how they should develop their classes to be FAIR to all, and to avoid overlapping. Makes one wonder if the organizers even know anything at all about cars, other than how to put gas in them.

Wake up, OOB! Get with the program. If you are going to milk the folks with a whopping $15.00 fee to get in, just so YOU can make money off of us, the least you can do is put in an effort to have a decent and fair class structure.

It would have also been nice if they had split up the 1990's and 2,000's. That was a huge class last year.
