This is a timely thread. I was just at the CVG carshow in New Albany, OH. I noticed that the awards classes were not equitable. Examples:
Cars had
Best of '50, '60, '70
Best Camaro
Best Mustang
Best Chevrolet
Best Lambo
Best Ferrari
People's Choice Award
Not equitable as there was a very nice Cougar, it could have won best of '70 or people's choice award, but there was not a best Mercury...
Motorcycles had
Best Custom
Best Harley-Davidson
Best Sport Bike
People's Choice Award
There was a nice little restored stock CB350 that could only have won the People's Choice award, which it did. If there was a Best H-D, why was there not a Best Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki etcetera.
Also, I don't know how anyone won the people's choice awards as the people didn't get a vote sheet to submit.
I learned a lot while paying attention to how the categories were stacked.
