I don't know how judging is done in other states, but this past weekend just totally sucked for my team and many others. We (and members of other teams whom we've spoken to) honestly feel that things were handled unfairly. A certain team swept almost all the categories, with cars that had nowhere as many mods as us.

If there's going to be favoritism and bias, then what's the whole point in showing in the PREDETERMINED show?

HIN is supposed to be the BIGGEST import show, yet they go out and pull something like this? Yes, as it says in that post, it's TRUE that many people didn't get judged. And many of those people who didn't get judged DID win an award (i.e. a very nice Supra). Regardless if it's nice or not... I think it's only fair to everyone who paid to compete if EVERYONE was judged fairly.

Thanks for letting me vent.

Thats some BS goin on out there. I had friends out there too.

Thats why you'll see my car on the track where there is no such thing as subjective opinion, my car is fasters than your, i get your women and the trophy

yeah , ive started to notice the trend of if your cars not a supra or a honda you wont win anything. not like im bashing on the cars but it just sucks that if you dont have a certain car with certain mods you wont win.

the whole import scene is starting to suck now.

^^ thank fast and the furious for that >>

HIN is the same way in detroit, the club who offers up cash to support the event wins nearly every award.

it does suck. And was your car on display, kuya?
cause i was walking arround and didn't see any 6th gen celica. A few 7th gen, but that's it.

What's the name of your team? and where were you guys located at. Anywhere close the the main stage where Sasha Singleton was dancing?
