I wasnt being an ass.......I was wondering why you are doing it? What are your plans? Typically it takes ALOT more money to do an older car.....While this is true, there are so many more affordable parts for older cars. Look at Evos, 350z's and WRX's....yes, there are a lot of them on the show circuits, but parts are just now starting to get somewhere near reasonable for the "older" ones. Depending how big of a show you plan on attending, there may be awards for best 1997 and older nissan or whatever. Smaller shows will have all nissans grouped, but bigger shows will have more of a break out of classes. I'm all for everyone that wants to do something fun with their car (be it show/drag/auto-x/demolition derby/whatever, so long as they had fun doing it). There will always be people saying "why did you chose that car?" when you are talking older vehicles....which is exactly why some people do chose the cars they do. No one is doing anything with them. Anything cool done on them is seen as unique and that alone can get extra points from judges. Good luck in your project.

He has many cars and was wondering why he picked that one.

Basically just looking for year and sanctioning body (IASCA, USAC, MECA, etc...) I was not aware of anyone local even going to world finals is why I ask.
-
no.....what year did he go to finals.
-
He went to finals 2 years ago.....i'll ask him today when i go in to work.....he has a shitload of trophies to prove it.
-
I'm not arguing, I'm just curious.

Its not IASCA however:

nor USACi

If it was one of the others, I'd like to talk to him about the general format, and how smooth things were run. I've been tempted to atend some of the other nationals and/or compete sometime.
-
im not sure if it was 2003 or not...i'll ask him when i see him next....i'll get you some facts...

Looks good! Doesnt he also have plans for some engine work?
