Hey Brian you deserves that trophy! Ive seen you in every show from LA to San Diego since we started showing. Talk about dedication!

Mr Twisted - Thats the way it is regarding car shows. Ask me or Mr. B. Both of us have been in a weird situation in the past where everyone thought we would take 1st and 2nd and someone pops up and takes 1st place. But that happens. Its all about who you know in this type of competion. Once the judges remember your car then on the next competition you might get little breaks here and there.

If you think that show was frustrating try and enter HIN... hahaha none of the Z's that you like will even place 3rd best Nissan. In that competition the more ricey you are the better. Saddly enough thats supposed to be the biggest import show. That disassembled honda in the middle of the hall at Showoff Classics keeps on winning best of show at HIN. Crazy!

All we can do is what we can and throw the dice. Had a good time and I'll be back but I'd still like to know my scores.

Hehe, Thanks Ben and Albert. It's hard to keep showing all the time, but it's something the sponsors like me to do. I know which show you were talking about! That was COMPLETE BS. I was pretty pissed off that day and it still riles me that we got 2nd and 3rd. Anyway, HIN is hard to get any kind of trophy unless you have neons, lots of chrome and altezza lights. I don't like showing at those shows, but it's kinda fun to look at all the skanks walking around.
Anyway, Showoff judges tend to know their stuff more than the other shows. Not saying all of them do, but usually, Nissan is judged fairly. They actually know their stuff! But eh, it all helps if you're a favored car or if you know them.
Email Ken M. or someone at Showoff to see if you can get your scores. They're all subjective based on the judges btw. Sometimes, they just won't like a specific car.

Mr B...just saw your ride in the January edition of Super Street magazine. They had a small article about Nisei Week, mentioned Garage Life and showed a small pic of your car.
