HAAAAAAAAAAAA. That happened to me last year. My car was way better than the stock cars that one. I feel you man. That show is BS. Don't worry. The CAFORDS annual show is done better. Everyone who enters gets a ballot. Much better judging.

Did they even put stangs in different classes?
The way they had it set up it looked like all years were in the same class.
I didn't put mine in for that reason.
I dont think mine would show as well as an new 05.

What did you loose to? Oh, and the time we went up there craig seriously a bone stock 01 GT took first, followed by a stock 95 GT, and the a 99 V6. None had wheels, were not lowered, nothing. Just stock. We saw they guys who won, bsing with the guys who were judging all day. Seemed a little cheated for the cost of entry and drive. Could have paid for spectation for less, and not even cared. Ya its not the point to win all the time, but at least have the competition that does win, have something to be worth their win.

Ok Evan you got me!
14.97, I would have to drive my ass off to beat that!! ![[worship]](graemlins/worship.gif)

Good point.
My buddy with an Orange Roush truck beat me,been in a few magazines, but its ok with me I just went to hang out with friends, realy didnt care if I won or lost, but I was happy with second with all the nice trucks there.
I still enjoyed watch the Ranger with half a bed run 15's on the track....

Yea your right, i was thinking of anothe truck, but watching that little rager was funny as hell.

missed the ranger action, I raced my 91 mustang and took second in the spotsman bracket. The show wasn't very big but I saw some nice cars and a lot of cash sitting in the show area.

Hey fellas, I know that we all win some and loose some. But here, it was something else. Not to be big headed or cocky but, I had the best SN95 Mustang out there. The classes were separated. That still doesn't justify that a dealersip or special production car looks better that a custom built car with 1 off parts . Whatever though, If you have a stocker that you want to show, go to this next year to win. I'm not saying that Saleens, Roushs and, etc are ugly. They look bad ass. They had their own category n e way. F#(k these people at Fordlovers.com. Obviosly they were hating on me cause I am young and had a doper daily driven ride that what they sit in everyday to work.
MODERATORS, I don't think that these people should be allowed to post their scripted shows on here. I'm sure 1sicgt agrees, also.

What car was yours?

N.L. Koncepts I sorry to hear your bad experience
out there.I was out there for about 1.5 hour
and your right not alot of people showed up
this year.I think the Mustang Maddness had alot
to do with that.I can't believe SAC Raceway would
have put those two events on the same weekend f*#*
stupid.Especially you guys coming from the bay.Thats
a long drive plus with GAS prices the way they are.
You could drop 2 bills easily.Why don't you email
fordlovers and give them feedback or vent.

The '02 'Stang GT with the Lambo Doors. Pretty much the only wild modified Mustang out there.

Evidence like what.

Yeah, I know. Thats bullshit. At real car shows, it's not manditory to do this like these fuckers made me do. If I knew this I would of detailed my motor, too. This show was really unorganized. All I know is that I've spread the word about these stupid fucks. They should of had trophys for the amount that registration, addmission and etc. was. A gay ass small cheap looking plaque was given out. Whatever though this is an endless battle that's not worth it.

Man instead of trash talking these guys, send them an e-mail!

at every show there is someone whos not happy it seems,
some shows are popularity contest by the crowd, some on a points system, hence why a stock car can beat a modified one, not what you have, its how its done.
You might not want to go to any MCA backed shows then.
Maybe you need to contact the show people in advance to see if you will be happy.
Most go to a show for fun and friendship not concerned if they will win something.
One well written post would have gotten more notice then use of 4 letter words in your rantings. Which dont sit well with most people who might have otherwise listened, and now just see it as whinning because you didnt win.

I don't know what type of shows you go to but a custom car always beats a stock car, bro. FYI, mostly everyone stoped to take a close look and asked Q's about my car and said that it looked great. Also, looked like they never stopped at any other car owner to conversate. This is why I am P.O.ed. I shouldn't have to waste about $100 just to meet people. I can do this for free. Call it what you want..... Doesn't bother me.....
Oh I forgot to tell you, Frontier Ford is having a Car Show tommorrow. Wait a minute, every delership is having a Car Show tommorrow. HAHAHA, the point system is great. Stock rims: 10pts. Stock interior: 10pts. Stock all around performance: 10pts. GREAT; Here's Best of Show Award........ HAHAHAHAHA, I don't know if I should laugh or be P.O.ed some more .
