Default 2013 Monte Nat question

I have just downloaded the registraion form for the Monte Nats

Last year the Deuce competed in Class 9 (2000 - 2007 Monte SS) and won best in class

This year I am giving serious thought to competing in Gold Class (1970 - 2007 Monte all models)

I know there where 2007 Monte gold class winners last year and belive the Duce has a shot at it.

Please provide input why i should or should not go for Gold class this year. Some of you have seen the Deuce in person and some of you have competed in the Nats before

Check out my garage pictures and please be honest.


Thanks!

There's an old French Proverb:

'Qui onques rien n'enprist riens n'achieva' which translated means 'He who never undertook anything never achieved anything'. You already know the Deuce is worthy of Best In Class when competing against other Class 9 Montes, and you know there were '07 Monte Gold Class Winners last year. That in itself would be enough for me to say go for it. Besides, a Gold Class Plaque would look pretty good hangin' on the garage wall. Go for it!
