Devils Run Highly Expanded
-
much larger this year and no drags on that weekend fargo needs to make a good showing put the minot imports in place and fill up the park with newer cars this year!!!!
-
I'm planning on showing this year again.
-
so i will be the downer here.
while it was a total car weekend....and that part was incredible. as i am a car guy. not necessarily old, new, domestic, import, but CARS.
BUT
with the way it was set up and judged for the youngn's and the import/tuners was wrong. they were all grouped together...and well to even have a chance in hell of winning or placing you had to do the work yourself. taking it to a shop did not cut it. there was a black beretta that had an engine swap and something else that placed or won it. and welllll it was pretty rough and ugly appearance wise, but he did the work himself therefore he did well.ok end rant

you must be talking about the under 21 category that's the only thing that is actualy judged and i think ,but could be wrong on this part, that it's only the snap-on guy doing the judging being it's his price for giveaway

yes that is the category i was refering to. iirc they had the under 21 and imports in one class.
nothing wrong with him doing the judging, but when clearly that beretta should have no way taken anything it pissed a few people off.
myself i was there in support of friends and well it was a car weekend. so its gotta be good then. and yes it was alot of fun. wish i had gotten out more though to get some better pics.true trophies are not everything.

It goes to the most deserving recipient yeah i can take my car to a shop and drop 30k into it and win lots of carshows like a few others i know who i wont use names, and then they win every year and is that really fair to the guy who works a couple jobs and does his car as a hobby and does the work himself who really deserves it more? the rich kid who's parents probably paid for the crap or the kid who works and saves and does most of the work himself and does it for himself not just to take the fun out of the car shows for everyone else.
Also i have talked to stan the main guy that puts this show togeather and the imports do not have to be in the class of under 21. they just choose to go in there because that is what most of the under 21 people do. If they wanted to be judges with the rest of the car show they can go park outside the balldiamond and be judges that way.

you can park anywere and i know a couple people that have parked outside the ball diamond and they don't get any one stoping and looking at their ride... you will get more people stoping if you are in the ball diamond with something newer... which isn't that most of the fun is getting to talk to people at the events? i know it is for me anyway

I do agree that the Beretta shouldnt have won because it looked like shit and there were a lot better cars there, just like i didnt get interviewed for my probe that was there for under 21. and i did most of that work myself well me and a couple buddies and if anyone knows the story on that thing it was a pain in the ass. People just dont need to bitch about it, It is spose to be a fun weekend for car people who cares if you win or lose just come to hang out and have a good time.

ohh yea and by the way i sold the probe and my grand am is no where near done so i wont be able to join in the festivites this year either. Also because we just had our 2nd child on may 10th. probably be there walking around and stuff just not participating this year.
