I do the occasional show and it is amazing how much interest these cars generate. All in all, my experiences with the onlookers has been good. Although I have seen a good number of dogs at these shows, I have not seen a problem YET. I often feel sorry for the animal in the heat, on asphalt and no water to drink. Can't believe people do that to their pets. I have let a number of kids sit in the car and they are always delighted and in general, respectful of the car. The worst thing I have had is a few sticky fingerprints which the spray bottle of detailer takes care of. I am usually more annoyed by the "is it real?" or "how much did this cost?" question I ALWAYS get or the jerk who thinks he is an authority on Carroll Shelby, than what the kids do. My biggest concern is some overexcited kid running up and burning him/herself on the pipes.
