When i was in high-school, 1989 or 90, a friend told me about a model club in a town about 30 minutes away. That weekend we attended a meeting. I took my Monogram Valvoline Pontiac Stock Car that I had recently finished, with my own custom race damage. Two others in attended would become my life long friends, but I didn't meet them that night. I attended one other meeting that year and that was it. Today I attended accompanied by the two now friends that were in attendance 35/36 years ago. I displayed some of the custom Hot Wheels I've done over the past few years. Surprisingly, I won an award. A VINTAGE SEALED KIT OF THE EXACT SAME MODEL KIT I DISPLAYED THREE AND A HALF DECADES EARLIER! What are the odds!? I love this hobby!
