Haha, no kidding. Koys or cast Foose's. Maybe they should reconsider the 'top 8' and take it back to 2 or 3.

A coast to coast bodied car with TTII's ? Really, is it '98? :question:

I agree with you guys. I think however right now that it's got to be difficult to come up with multi-million dollar one off cars every year. Don't know.:rolleyes:

My thought is that if the Ring Brothers would have held back on debuting Dragon, they could have perhaps won the Ridler..

I will get crap from this.....That was the worst picks I have seen. Not much to pick from this year, Two years ago none of those cars would have had a chance. Steve Cook is a very good builder tho.

You won't get it from me. The way I look at it, put the current winner up against former winners like Impression and First Love. Would they have even look like they should be in the same circle?

I think the right car won for this year. However overall I agree that the Great 8 this year was very weak. I know that its a very small club of people that are willing to spend a million + dollars on a car. I would like to see a Chip Foose, Troy Trepanier, Alan Johnson, Roger Burman, Ring Brothers go for the Ridler all in the same year. What would be really awesome though, if all these guys went for it and some builder that we don't even now of came out and beat them all for it. Highly unlikely I know but it has happened, just look at what Duane Steck did with moonglow back in the mid 50's.

Edit: I would have to add Dale Boesch to the list of builders I would like to see compete. I love the cars he builds but it seems like he doesn't come out with a car except for every once in a while.

This 56 Was really heads and shoulders nicer than most builds.
I personally thought last years feild was weaker than this years, of course there always seems to be a few how the hell did that car make it in the feild, but wow the 56 vert. was steller. Way nicer than last years winner.

Would be fun to see all the big dogs compete at same time,
