Noticed another possible typo:

In the 3 Point category, take a look at this description:
Each major interior modification (removal of rear seats, custom dash, **** carpet, etc.)(8 point max for these items)
8 isn't a multiple of 3. Unless you just want to cap it at 8 so that if you have 3 mods, you get a "free point". Just thought I would bring it up.

I don't know if Scott indended it that way, I just wanted to let him know about it.

Been thinking about this. If there aren't enough competitors in a class what should we do?

Leave the class open so that whoever is in it will just win, or not have much competition?

or

move the point system around the day of the show to accommodate each class to have a an even amount of cars in each class?

opinions?

I say you just roll with what you have going now because there's a lot of people that signed up and haven't done the poll yet. Why not have everyone print out that sheet, add up the points and give it to the judges to determine the classes that way. Hell I don't know lol anyway you do it Scott than its gonna be fair

all i want is a fool proof system where no one can complain . . . that'll never happen, so instead i want to make it as fair as possible.

the questions is, what if no wild xA's come and there are 9 mild ones? do i bump the top half into wild to make the competition more fair?

what if there are 20 mild tC's, one street and 1 wild . . . shouldn't i put a few of the top mild into wild, and the lower mild into street?

or do you think class is class and don't change the rules.

either way i am fine, i jsut want to get some feedback from the people in the show.

I see what you're saying and really what ever class a car is in, should stay in that class but if it came down to where there was only 1 car in a class than I'd go back to the drawing board and see how many cars are in each class. Like it there were 5mild xas and no wild, than bump up the best xas and put them in wild etc but split it where its fair. Every car show will have people complain about a class or score or whatever but you're putting on a free show where some people go just to be with friends and have a good time, ya I'd like to win but having a fun time is more important

There's a better picture of it!

I have 11 of those you can win, and 3 more for the skate tournament!

Bring the A game!

I know that not everyone will be happy. There's always at least one person who gets their panties in a bunch (and it's usually a guy...why he's wearing panties I don't know). I'm cool with bumping people up or down to even out the classes, but I think that it should be up to the individual who is to be moved. I don't know if there would be time to OK with those who will be moved, but that's what I'd do if I were in your shoes Scott.

If you bump cars up, a Mild TC that may have won his class now is stuck going against wild TC"s. That might make some people mad. I say keep the point system in place and don't adjust. Just my .02 cents.

That's why I think if they're going to do that, to make it up to the person being bumped.
"Do you want to stay in mild with the 30 other mild cars? Or are you OK going up to wild with the three other wild cars?"

I guess Scott knew i was coming... no back seats, custom dash, 15" subs....lmao... what about my lights..lol j/k

i'm slaving away at Crystal's tc everynight until we leave for s3.

as far as your list goes Scott.. i would leave it the way it is man. higher classes means higher prices, but some people will not be truthful, just so they can be bumped down a class, and be at the top of it. i would roll with what people turn in, and when the judges go over the cars and think there is a vehicle that belongs in a dif class, thats when the judge should have the final say.

and if you need any help with anything, let Cryatal and I know.. you know we'll help you out any way we can.
