What Trophies and Awards do We Want?

[Tri-ZNate]

Motocross: 5- 1st place, 5- 2nd place, 5- 3rd place (won)

Is the MX going to be setup in classes like amature and pro for some of us less experienced guys or is going to be everyone in the same class?

[Billy Golightly]

MX classes will be by machine.

wow that seems like a good deal. And it appears he has another 25 for sale as well "I have 2 lots of 25 to sell now." Free engraving too.

OK Guys, so it seems we've come up with all the trophies we need. If there are anymore post it up. I'm probably ordering next week!

[Billy Golightly]

It looks good to me Derrick. I'm really looking forward to Trikefest this year, I think its going to be a blast.

After going over the responses to the polling, this is what Ive come up with that we will need for the races. First, I think we should go with one size for 1st place, and a smaller size for subsequent places, but all of these should be the same size, and not have the place tag on them. The place tags are normally have a peel and stick adhesive, and can be put on at the time they are awarded. The idea behind this is you can make necessary adjustments depending on class turnouts, etc. You simply order a few extra tags of different places, instead of extra trophies and we can adjust as necessary by just sticking on the tags we need, or left untagged if necessary. Some classes may not even have 3 entries.

This is what I came up with for MX and drags.

Trophies:
7 - 1st place trophies with the place tags on them.
14 - smaller subsequent place trophies, all same size, no place tags.

Place Tags:
1 1st Place
7 2nd Place
6 3rd Place
3 4th Place

Its complicated as to how I came up with it, and havent written out all the details of which classes are questionable as far as turnout, but this should cover it.

5x7 plaques are tiny. Ive got one of them, and they are just incredible small. If we can go with an 8x10, its a lot better, still a little, but large enough.

WOW, what a deal! Good eye Freakfix!
I actually have everything lined up with a company called "Mr. Trophy.com". They can have them all to me within 2 weeks. I've been waiting to make sure we don't come up with any others that we need. BUT, since you picked up all those figurines, we could always add another at any local trophy shop.

All the places I've checked seemed to be very comparable in price. Here's the final tally of plaques and trophies.

7- 15" Column trophies @ $9.75
4- 12" Column trophies @ $6.75
21-10" Column trophies @ $5.95

8- 1st place tags
7- 2nd place tags
6- 3rd place tags
3- 4th place tags
1- K.O.T.H. tag
1- Best of Show tag
1- Best Original tag
1- Best Modified tag

1- Most Memorable Trikefest Incident plaque @ $25.00
1- Trikefest Showmanship award plaque @ $25.00

There's your update, guys! Anything to add or subtract, let me know. ASAP.

[Billy Golightly]

We need that "Long Distance" plaque too if you can still get it Derrick. Otherwise I think it looks super.
