After failing miserably at DW11 through DW14, I was fortunate enough to win this year, and was looking forward to a winner's jacket. But there was no mention of them at the awards ceremony; has Hot Rod stopped giving jackets to the winners? To me, the jackets I won in 2005, 2006, and 2009 are priceless keepsakes of a successful event, and its a little disappointing if they discontinued that practice. Sorry for the whine, but does anybody know anything about this?

Did Hot Rod quit giving away winner's jackets?

I don't believe they have stopped awarding them, but I can't recall any mention of them this year either.Last edited by TheSilverBuick; September 24, 2015, 10:18 AM.Escaped on a technicality.

In theory they should have all your e-mail addresses. Hopefully they'll send out a "Congratulations" e-mail in the next week or two asking the pertinent size question. Given it was Dave Kennedy's first time being the mic host, and a bit "dry", it could easily have been an omission.Escaped on a technicality.

In the past, it has taken a few weeks for them to get their stuff together and contact the winners, in 2013 I got contacted for a jacket size via e-mail the last week in October, got the jacket the first week in December. Pretty sure they are still handing them out.
