At a lot of shows, Spridgets are grouped together.
And I don't mind it at all.
But if you are in it for a trophy, a ratty red Bugeye will beat
a concours mustard yellow RB Midget.
For me, PIECES is a "spridget" it's not a Sprite, it's not a midget.
I go to the shows for 2 reasons, PARTS and friends.
Although a plaque is nice, the dash plaque works for me.
I already have a room full of plaques, plates, trophys, and awards.
There are times when the awards just don't go right.
I have placed better than Biff and that is just wrong since Biff's car
and George Marinos Sprite are far better than anything I drive.
There again, a Bugeye over a square body, or I had more friends at that
particular meet. That ain't right but that's the way it is.
At a meet like the Mercer show, Spridgets would have worked fine.
