A Car Show question

I am, of course, anxious to get signed up for MOTD! April cant get here soon enough for me (although that may have a little to do with the current cold temperatures and snow). I have been visiting the official MOTD website a lot in the past week. I noticed that this year for the car show there were 4 categories--MINI, Countryman, Clubman, and Classic. After the show last year there was talk about having a Cabrio category for this year since there were so many Cabrio entrants (more than Clubmans if I am remembering correctly). Was that decided against, forgotten or am I missing something on the sign up?


This isnt a complaint or criticism. Nor am I trying to make more work for the organizers. I am just wondering. Thanks!

Just in case someone looks here for an update (grabbed from the official MOTD website):

So, you want to see how your MINI/Mini stacks up to the competition?
Or maybe you just want to spend the afternoon drooling over some incredible MINIs?
Either way, this is the Event for YOU!!!!
And just like last year, YOU get to be the judge!
Just stop by the registration table on the ballfield, pick up a ballot and vote for your favorites.
If you plan to enter the show, feel free to arrive early to choose a prime parking spot and do your final detail touch-ups. We plan to begin parking entrants no later than 1PM.
VOTING will begin at 2:00pm sharp and end at 3:30pm sharp.
Trophies will be handed out as soon as the votes are counted. We changing it up this year and adding some new prize catagories:
Model-specific categories: Voters will vote for ONE MINI/Mini in each of these categories
1st/2nd place MKI Hardtop (2002-2006)
1st/2nd MKII Hardtop (2007-)
1st/2nd MKI Ragtop (2005-2007)
1st/2nd MKII Ragtop (2008-)
1st Clubman
1st Countryman
1st Classic Mini
Open Categories: Voters must vote for 5 different MINI / Minis in these categories:
Bling King: (Best use of chrome/bling - which MINI would "Fitty Cent" take home?)
Ninja Warrior: (Best stealth/blackout mods- which MINI is ready for 007, Jason Bourne, or maybe Chuck to sneak about in?)
Dirty Dog (Which MINI/Mini needs a bath worse than the rest?)
Costume Queen (Which MINI/Mini has the best temporary decorations)
Fine China (Which engine bay would you eat from?)






And finally: Any MINI/Mini is eligible for an additional vote in this category
Best of Show (Best overall MINI/Mini, regardless of model or vintage)
Each winner will recieve a small trophy and prize from OutMotoring.com
