Well, I just got done reading all the rantin on this thread, so I am gonna say what I have to say. If I offend anyone, I apologize, but at the same time I dont care.

The reason car shows are dying is because ppl cry about not winning. Who cares?!!! The judges voted and that is that. OMG, you didnt get another trophy!!! I show my car all the time. I get beat sometimes by cars with less work and time, and sometimes by cars that are still considered under construction, but the differnce is I suck it up and tell that person congrats and I am happy for them. I have enough trophies I like seeing fellow xB owners and friends and ppl that are doing the same thing I am doing, which is creating an awesome car to show, to win trophies. There is no need for bashing or all the drama. ABKS put on their first car show and from what I seen and heard is that it was a great show expect for jack ass that didnt win trophies and feel that the cars that won shouldnt have. All shows are based on opinion. I havent shown my car once this season, just because I still havent got up the nerve to deal with ppl's bullshit and whinning. This wasnt the last show of the year, or for the rest of your lives. Their will be more shows and more trophies. And last but not least. NO ONE HAS THE BEST CAR!!!!! get over it, and have a nice day.
