It's funny about trophies, etc. Some people value them, other's couldn't

One thing I know I'm guilty of... that's not keeping enough of the
documentation of any of my car's current racing exploits. They're all part
of its history. If I was "Joe Organized", I'd be keeping a scrapbook of all
my years of vintage racing..., but, alas, I'm not.
By the way, the big silver ice bucket, and the silver box polished up
brilliantly.
