Pidler,

The best way to make money at a car show is to find sponsors for the show. Go to auto parts stores and neighbor hood buisnesses, have them sponsor different classes ie first,second and third place. Charge that sponsor for the cost of the trophies to be awarded for that class plus a little extra for the school. You will have to have a sponsor for each class, that will keep the cost low enough to attract the sponsors. Get the students involved in the sponsor serch. If you still want to charge the participants an entry fee it can be a $5.00 or $10.00 donation not an entry fee.

Hope this helps
