Tim and Josh we all know Mariono has one of the cleanest IS on the west coast. A well built show car, so why is anyone going to question him or say a show is rigged. Car show are judged by people and people make like a certain style or design more than another and that why people win. You can have all the mods in the world but if you car does not stand out above the rest then well you are more than likely not going to place very high. The judge make the decision on how many points to give to each entry, and they decide who when and who doesn't. I have seen $100,000 build lose to a $10,000 it all up to the judges.

Your car is sick and a very clean build. I'm not down playing your car at all, it just some times I think people need to educated on how the show scene works as I know you already know. Car show are a person judging your car and looking very mod detail and difference from you and the other cars at whatever show is being attended. Just because anyone spends a ton of money on their car does'nt mean you are going to win every show.

Baoser.....I think this is where the thread turned twisted a bit. Josh posted 6 words and several people have different opinions of "What he gotta say" which wasn't much. Was he saying this was a meet? Are meets what's in now? Don't really know??? Silus and I are cool hoies and can give a ******...We both know we have nice cars at the end of the day and if we all know each other and are cool, then that's all that matters. Have food and drinks and it's all gravy!

I guess you're right...I read his post again and think he's saying Silus's car IS sick. I also think he's saying that it's really up to the judges on any given day regardless of how much $ was spent.

I heard Spocom was cancelled cause of the Motion show in So Cal this weekend and I think because it was back to back shows here in Nor Cal.

I was in contact directly with SpoCom today and got an explanation as to why SpoCom was canceled. During the Anaheim show SpoCom received alot of feedback regarding NorCals venue and last years Norcal venue. Spocom decided that it would be better if they held it indoors as they did last year. Apparently whoever is in charge of the San Mateo Expo center did not want to have back to back weekends of cars shows. I was also asked if I or anyone I know had any suggestions as to a place in which it could be held.
