Show n’ Shine

Saturday, June 15th

The RMMR event will be held in Cripple Creek Colorado, a small mountain town about an hour west of Colorado Springs. With several hundred participants, this is one of the largest Mustang-focused shows you’ll find in the Rocky Mountain region!

The Show n’ Shine is NOT a concours judged competition, but does offer judging in a variety of Mustang-specific classes as listed below. Staging will begin at 6:30 am with a 10:00 am start and will end promptly at 3:00 pm.

The Show n’ Shine will accommodate up to 300 mustangs and will take place along Bennett Ave., the main thoroughfare of the town.

Winners in each of the Show n’ Shine classes will be selected by Judging Teams (residents of the Colorado Springs community) using the following non-concours criteria: Cleanliness, Craftsmanship and Quality.

The Judging Teams will rate each car’s engine, Interior, Exterior, Wheels / Tires, and Overall Appearance. Each category is worth 5 points for a maximum of 25 points.

Show n’ Shine Awards presentation is FREE and OPEN to all participants. All Trophies will be available for pickup at 5pm in the Chamonix Hotel. All registered participants are eligible for Specialty Awards and those awards will be announced at 5:30pm.

If there are significant changes from stock in any of the above categories, please register in the appropriate modified class.

Current model year cars (2024) will only be judged via Popular Vote and Specialty Awards. All Up and Coming entries will be subject to reclassification per Judging Chair discretion. Additional trophies will be awarded, which include Vanity Plate, Hard Luck, Young Owner, Long Distance (individual) and Long Distance (club). To be eligible for either of the Long-Distance awards, vehicle(s) must be driven the distance to and from the show (trailered vehicles ineligible).

The Bruce Sandberg Memorial Award

In memoriam of our fellow Mustanger Bruce Sandberg, members of his family will be graciously awarding a $500 check and the Bruce Sandberg Memorial Trophy to the participant that most embodies Bruce’s spirit and love of Mustangs and the community.

Bruce was a good friend of the Rocky Mountain Mustang Roundup and volunteered for over twenty-five years to help make our show a success. His friends and relatives have funded an award in his memory. The award is given to a show n’ shine entrant who is under thirty years old and is judged to have presented the best example of a Mustang that is owned, preserved/renewed/restored, and used by the entrant. This is in keeping with Bruce’s desire to bring younger people into the Mustang hobby.  Entrants for the award must indicate their interest in being considered for the award and their age on the registration form for the show and shine competition.
