1999 Winner Shane Tickle

     “Best of the Best” The Grand National Champion was first selected at the 10th Nationals, This honor was chosen from all the Best of Show IH Truck Winners from all the other Regional IH Scout & Truck Shows that are held all over the nation & throughout the year. This exciting program helps promote ALL the Regional Shows & the Nationals even more.

     A certificate for each Regional Show is made available to present to each Regional BEST OF SHOW winner. The certificate entitles the regional Best of Show winner to a free entry to the 11th Annual IH Scout & Light Truck Nationals’00 held at the Clark County Fairgrounds, Springfield, oIHo. on September 8 through the 10, 2000. The regional Best of Show winner will represent the best from the regional show a will qualify for the “Best of the Best” Grand National Championship Show IH Vehicle Competition at the Nationals’00. Only Best of Show winners from selected regional shows and the Participant chosen Best of show winner from the Nationals 1999 will be competing for the prestigious award.

     We believe this competition will be very healthy & thought of in spirit of good sportsmanship & fun. A Panel of Sponsors and judges will have the task of judging and selecting the Grand National Champion from all the Fine IH Vehicles that will be participating from the Regional IH Truck Shows.

     At this Time the Regional Shows included in the contest are: The Dixie Regionals, Arizona IH Rendezvous, Western IH Regionals, Midwest Classic, East Coast Scout & light Truck Regionals, Rocky Mountain IH Rendezvous, Northwest Binders Roundup, Triple Diamond Fourwheelers-Eastern PA Truck Show, & the 1999 Nationals Participant chosen Best of show. We will ad winners from other Regional IH Truck shows as long as we know about them in advance.

     We hope all the Webmasters from the regional shows will make note of this program and link back the Nats page:
