Garage queens.

I show my car and I Zaino it. I drive it almost every day, and frequently drive it several hundred miles to Concours events. Also managed to win the Jag national championship in my class last year. I have this crazy notion that cars are for driving.

Not flaming anybody here. But I run across competitors who keep their car in a garage, trailer it to a show, and they almost cringe at having to drive it out of the trailer and onto the field. I just don't understand that mentality.
