We have always done what we felt was fair for judging. We never have judged and this year will be no different.I personally have no quams about how it was judged Jason. I thought it was fair. I just remember the butthurt people complaining about Chuck judging.

I just remember the butthurt people complaining about Chuck judging.I have already received a call from Brent Mills (Insane G35), and he said he wanted to be a 'non-entry' (but bring the car), and judge. I encouraged him to enter the car, as well as judge. This year, people will NOT judge all the cars, and if they are an entry in the show, they will be given a group of cars that do not directly relate to their vehicle. So Brent will not judge Nissan/Infinity, and if Chuck were to do it, he would not judge Subaru. Pretty simple, and safe!

The whole judging thing seems silly to me. When did it become important to have a better car than other people anyways? What happened to getting a bunch of enthusiasts together and just havin a good time?It is a car show with awards given out. You have to be judged to get an award so the need for judges. Some people invest a lot of $$ and time in their cars and the awards they compete for are what some consider a return on their investment. Others, (myself included) just like the show n shine aspect of it and dont really care if anything is won. But to the people that actually invest the time and money into touring the show circuit, this is what the awards/judging for such is for. It's a great time either way.

I like the way you think Jason. And I would be honored to judge again if asked, and would understand if I wasn't.

Then again I've only been in one show that I entered my stock mx6 in lol. I would completely understand if there were cash prizes or something, and I guess I do understand that getting trophies is fun and that makes the need for judging. Maybe I just dont understand why people get all butt hurt about not winning.
Enough of that, I'll be at p10 and I'm looking forward to it!

If not, oh well, that's not really makes the show worthwhile.

Best club is a collaboration of all the judges thoughts. We try and find judges that aren't affiliated with a club, but that becomes hard, and if I feel that someone is being unrealistic with a vote for 'their' club, their vote will not count. We have yet to have a problem with that tho.]]

It is a real sense of accomplishment and it makes you very proud of what you have done.

Over the years I have watched this show grow into what it is today. Everything improves every year. Last year was the first year I had a car in the show, its even more fun having a car in it then not. It gives you a real look at to how much time/money/effort is put into people cars and getting them ready for the show, and the show it self. I will for sure have my car in the show again!
I have never thought there was any issues with Judges. As for Chuck. if his car gets a trophy/award, it is because the car earned it.

My only problem is that i can pick all the winners of the show before it even happens.
I'm guessing everyone that won an award last year, also won an award the year before, even though their car was 95% the same. Hell even stock cars can win, and thats kinda odd. -

I seen a few cars that were hand over fists above the rest and deserved to win while others caught me by surprise. Even me placing at all last year. I thought Parker was going to get the trophy I got.

I'd be happy to be a judge, atleast i'd be fair.
