Automotive Webcomic Awards

October 15th, 2008

Recently, I won a number of prestigious awards at the third annual “Automotive Webcomic Awards“, held recently outside of Tucson, Arizona.

The AWA is “dedicated to promoting and celebrating American-made webcomics that best advance the Automotive Lifestyle“. This year, the AWA was sponsored by Korean tire manufacturer, “Go Tires”, and 2 brands of soda: “Mountain Lightning” and “Dr. Thunder”.

I won:

“Go Tires Best Newcomer Award - Monsters in Cars category” - First place
“Pretty Good Writing” - Third Place
“Best Alternative Driving Webcomic” - Second Place

Even in this economy, the AWA went all out. We had a pretty good buffet with tacos and some nice salad too. We were able to quaff as much Mountain Lightning as we could drink.

There were at least 15 people in attendance, including the waitress. They even had a Journey cover-band, which was pretty loud.

As you can see, we had a great time.

I found your site from http://www.baristagirl.com Your stuff is funny and different. We have no traffic jams in Minnesota so I drive around the block for an hour, just so I dont feel too inferior to you. Your suit! Your chops and generic pops! Driving is not half the biz-atch if you ride a motorcycle. It was 32 degrees at sunrise today, so no ride today. I bet you didn’t scrape your windshield today. (oh crap, I missed my exit ramp again)…
