Frequently Asked Questions

• How many trophies should I order for my car show?

  That depends on how many classes you have, how many places you award in each class, and how many specialty awards you plan to give. The calculator combines those numbers and shows you the total.

• Should every car show award first, second, and third place?

  No. Some shows award only Best in Class, while others award first and second or first, second, and third. Choose the structure that fits your event and expected turnout.

• What are specialty awards at a car show?

  Specialty awards are separate from regular class awards. Common examples include Best of Show, People's Choice, Best Paint, Best Interior, Best Engine, and Judge's Choice.

• Should I order extra trophies?

  There is no standard number of extra trophies to order. If you want backups or expect to add additional awards, you can include those intentionally in the calculator.

• Can the calculator estimate my trophy budget?

  Yes. You can enter your own average trophy costs to estimate the total award budget. Final pricing may still vary based on engraving, customization, shipping, and other vendor charges.
