One quick word about the judges/judging: I think the vast majority of the judging should be on the cleanliness of the car followed by a distant second with the mods done to it. I remember a couple years ago there was a blue 350Z vert that won something like best in show or best Z33 or something like that and everyone was like "wtf? his mods were so terrible!" In reality, he had the cleanest car there.
Long story short, it really depends on what the judges are looking for. Maybe there needs to be some clarification as to what they need to be looking for, I agree, but you are taking a person's opinion of a car and making a judgement on it. That's a hard thing to do in a close nit community like the Z crowd. A lot of people know Moses and have seen his car come from stock to what it is now. Everyone pretty much knows everyone else. I'm not going to say how I feel about the matter but the judges made their choice and it's final. Maybe I can help find some people from outside the community next year to do just the judging or something like that. We'll see. Lots to talk about for next year, that's for sure! Now......................... on to the pictures

^ Definitly a lot improvement needs to be done with regards to the car show particularly with judging. Taking big considerstion on ones qulification/background knowledge about the nature of the Z. Not only by willingness or availability of volunteeres. As per cleanliness of the vehicle and amount of intensive manual labor done with mods without loosing the main essence of the Z should carry biggest weight. Innovation with design that exudes uniqueness but not looking to much tacky is another good criteria.
Transparency to participants of the following criterias with weight average is also warranted. Like I said over all I am happy with event great idea on letting the car show participants to have the opening parade and entrance to the event. I just fell many participants drove hundred of miles and spent a lot of money and time to prepare for the car show event and was handled poorly particularly with the 350 and 370 categories. Hands down to 240 all the way to 300zx was spot on as I understand the judges are true blue Z classic enthusiast. No newbies please. |

Now...Ok back to pictures can somebody post the picture of the 370 that won first place for the modified class as I understand it was not shown in the banquet overhead projector or I just missed it while I was busy judging the long slender legs of the girl sited next to me on the other table. Lol
Shut the front door!

it still won't let me embed or upload a picture for some reason so I had to screen shot it on my phone to upload it. But I wasn't at the awards banquet so I'm not 100% sure this was it but this is the only other carbon Z I remember seeing. So I'm sure it had to be it lol

This one supposedly won over nomods wide carbonfiber Z. image.jpg In terms of cleanliness and aggressive mods. Nomods is the ultimate ultra modified Z! |
