I've been saying that for years.... it's because the organisers are in it to make money. But without the cars, there would be no show... Entry should be free or THEY should even pay the competitors to put their cars in!! Why put in all the time and effort, just to have a bunch of people walk around looking at your car and if it's worthy maybe take a few pics... maybe get a trophy? big deal, people see my car every time I drive it on the road
