Congrats Thomas.... Man the other 2 Nor*Cal Scion members got robbed by the clueless judge(s).... :o :o :o

What was the prize? I would personally give the price to the more deserving Nor*Cal members that went with you but then again that's just me...

Bottom line is... as long as you guys had a great time in this crappy weather... Congrats Again...

There were only three Scions at the show!?!

And you got a First w/o any of the requisite mods required to be a Nor*Cal groupie!?!

And no lowest Scion awards?

Congrats on placing and maybe more sponsors will come knocking.

No offense, man, cuz I love the graphics, but maybe the judges didn't know about the RS1 being a package?...

Not sure what the judges thought... only one really talked to me... Otherwise I just sat back...

i totally love the lava (i own one myself) but i think there was some miss information on the judges part. they knew ____ about judging cars. i agree with what someone else said about the judge not realizing the rs1 was a package. i personally do not like the graphics on the rs1 either but to each his own.

Louie, you know how most of like to joke around all of the time. That's why we all hang out together. If we capped and were serious about it all of the time, would there be 31 Scions showing up for a mini-meet?

We kid Gabe about his muffler yet still go to his shop, John about eating, Ted about his secret JDM store, me about my work, Ken and his "short" shifter, Tylor not showing up to a meet, Thomas getting his car, and on, and on, and on.

You weren't wrong.

Hey lets not forget how we kid with Toufic... oh damn, my bad, he's the one we don't kid with! :twisted:

In any case, congradulations Thomas! Been a long time coming for you, enjoy the limelight!

P.S. Sweet job on the graphics Louie & Jan! You two are always hooking up the sweet vinyl action for us!

Congrats Thomas. Now you have some incentive to really make your car look sick.

That judging reminds me of EAF in San Diego last year, but what the heck. At least we're all friends, right?

And I'm sure it won't be long before Thomas' car really is a full out show car!


Oh yeah, and I like the graphics!!
