Dude, things keep going they way they are and I will have to sell just out of disgust.

Car is running really good, NOPI was a sham and now I am back at work in FL. Just another week in the hamster cage I guess. :|

Berto: 6600 is where the max power is made, but everything keeps pulling well past 7300 when we get off the gas.

Sorry off topic but what was up with Nopi?

Bert: I have the printouts but no electronic copies and this is just the initial tune. When I get the car back I will be increasing the boost as 8 and 12 PSI are a bit slow for me

Hurahn: NOPI was OK, but the organized parties were pretty lame (not to mention the cost) I was not happy to be standing out in the heat for 2 days on that freaking asphalt and the Judging was a bit strange. I recognize they had over 5,000 cars to judge but the guy did not spend more then 1-2 minutes looking at my car and while I know there are a lot of cars there, for me to place 15th in the mild class was just weird.

There was a mistake with my friends Skyline parked next to me.. they classified his Skyline as American and after the awards we went to protest. After some research they found the problem and corrected it, which is good, but I am still waiting to understand how they judged my car.

I just guess I am getting tired of being compared to Sponsor paid cars. Maybe it is time to stop spending my money on these shows. Better to put it into the car itself.

I said it before-no disrespect Brent or anybody into shows, but I think its dumb. A POS, badly done ride with a friend who is a judge/hookup will beat a clean set-up. Build a car to make yourself happy, not some judges. Go enjoy that new motor! Cant wait to see your sick HIGH boost numbers...

I can see politics playing a huge role in car show judging. I agree with Berto ... eff that **** man, especially if you have to throw down money just to be in the contest.

No different than the show up here where Emotion played the politics to get all their rides to win. Yea its cool to go see, but knowing the time and money and effort you put into your ride, I personally don't think its fair. They just judge on the looks not on the facts of what someone actually did to their car. Some people just turn the keys over and pick up a show winner, then get interviewed saying "Yea it was hard, and all this work and blah blah blah" when the only they did was get it trailered to the show and then show up to pick up their trophies.

Just doesn't make sense to me. At least around here your always number one though!

(damn that sounded so fanboi!!)

Just go ask Team Emotion about Hot Import Nights. I show, but its more for fun than anything.Everything has poilitics involved nowadays. Thats why I don't care anymore. I build it for me, just like Im sure Brent did with his. But it doesn't make it suck any less when they give you the shaft like that. And we ALL know Brents car is Bad A** inside and out.

I think they're ALL Mid -A haters!

Well, all being said and done I did the work on my car for me (with some things definitely geared more for show then go no doubt). I sort of thought that with the response I get from the crowd, it would be reflected in the judging. But I guess not.
I was apparently judged 6th now after a review by NOPI.. The top 5 custom 350’s scored 98, 98, 96, 95 and 93 out of 100 possible points. Sounds like Sponsor Owned trailer queens to me..?

Oh well, I am glad some people appreciate all the time, effort and research put into my Baby.
