And Best Performance going to some kid with a stock turbonetics kit and a Tsudo coffee can exhaust?? C'mon. I would have eaten him at the track.

My point is - I don't think I was even judged. Anyone who would have read my engine modsheet would have known straight away I would outperform a stock turbo kit & a tsudo catback. I think the Judges saw my supercharger, assumed the rest was stock, and moved on without even looking at my modsheet.
This was my first show as well, and I know I made a stronger showing performance-wise. Can't blame me for being annoyed at the judges for that.

I did hear what you had in your tC and I have to say I was pretty impressed with what you were running. Hats off to you and keep modding. Dont let this one show keep you from continuing to come out and compete...

The information that I got about the NCCA booth is a result of my conversation with Scott (Steve? I'm so bad with names - the main Northeast guy) from Scion. I expressed some concerns and opinions about the event. We'll see how it's taken.

Hope Joe makes it out to VIP as well - that way we can BOTH get smacked around by Munch's car

Now, I'm not bangin' on Joe's car.... Turbo kits are great, even stock... And his car is worthy of the prize all things considered. My beef is with the event coordination. Honestly, for all I know, they could have come do judge my car during one of the little rainstorms where I closed my hood. The Parking Lot Gestapo were constantly trying to move us over to the stage and away from our cars a lot of the time, so there was definitely some time where I was away from my car while the hood was shut.
Had there been an announcement like "Judges will be looking at cars at 3pm" or what not, the people showing would have had time to prepare.
Some things are subjective, like how a car looks. Performance is not. Performance is perfectly tangible from one car to the next, particularly when they're the same model.

I had an awesome time. Food was good and the people were really nice. Plenty of "loot".
It definitely would have been a little better if they had stated when they would have judges walk around like V.I.P. And I had no expectations of winning anything hahahaha But over-all it was a good time.

sorry joe but people were wondering why you were going up there to accept an award for someone who lives in LI not PA...when someone from LI was going to pick up the award for the winner & deliver it to them. that was all, no lying there.
