well tell you what, if you can get 15 people to confirm they are going that drive scions then i will talk with the other officers about making your own class if this is a problem. Its one more trophy its not a huge deal.

i think we could get a good amount of scions with that much warning. at least 10 of us. make it 10, not 15!!! LOL

there was a good amount of people there in the fall show and i had a good time - i'm looking forward to the spring show!!!

Alright so me and the rest of the officers of the club sat down last night and had a long descussion about your request. The ending agreement was to leave the categories the way they are and to not seperate the scions from lexus and toyota.
Looking back on past shows, toyota and lexus branded cars have really been missing from the show. From our past event, the fall show. We had a great showing of scions one even taking a trophy, i believe it was best in show.

At our spring show we would like to see even more. We are inticapating that we will be our largest show EVER! Brian Wilson a great member of our car club for many years and a large part of the GTO and Jeep community has past away. We have guys driving there cars up from as far away as FL to support this show. We are also in the talk with one of the judges of the reg/national sound off competitions. No matter how many cars we get none will ever be turned away, this is a charity event.

For those of you who would like a trophy, bring your best stuff becuase this show is going to be huge at least by our standards. Our trophys are going to be the same as the fall show but they will be powder coated and look a lot nicer.

If you have any further question feel free to ask i'm on this board all the time.

We just got the trophys back from the powder coater and they look sick. They are black if your wondering.

Here is a picture of last years trophy for the people that couldn't make it out. This year the pistons are powder coated black.
