best way to settle it? ...whoever is concerned each put 5 pics up....engine,interior,side profile,3/4 view front and back....
thats the only way.....
let whoever is on this forum decide.....
better yet....want an unbiased opionion? park both cars in a shopping mall....see which one draws the most crowd,and listen to the comments of joe public.
ive seen some real nice vettes,and ive seen some not so nice,BUT LOOK BETTER.....what the judges (whomever they may be) on the day decide is all that counts.....
all i can comment on is 72vet's car which i have only seen pics of on this forum....
to ME its a sweet ride....sits oh just right, (which i personally love) and is a nice colour.....WHICH POPS.... if that makes sense.....sikovit.... where is your ride? all i can see is an engine bay,thats does look sweet IMHO.....but what about the rest of the car? how good is the interior? paint? body?does it sit like a 4wd? ...i dont wish to upset anyone....but if you think you can judge better.....put your hand up.... THATS the problem..... people do this for free.... and sometimes cop abuse for it....
is that fair?
want better/accredited judges? who pays?
i can appreciate modified vettes as well as as stocky.... what do you suggest mate?
NCRS judges who wouldnt even look at a modified vette and award points to an original,even if it is not the best condition...but it is original?
or award point ON THE OVERALL CONDITION OF THE VETTE.....
without naming names.....how do you judge a replica of a car which is a car i fell in love with the moment i first seen pic of....(which is so rare its near impossible to get hold of a genuine) or the same year car that needs a bit of work to improve?...whats "looks" best....hard to beat the replica for shear WOW factor...but if went to NCRS judging they wouldnt award points for this....nor that
i know which way i would go....
i personally like vettes converted to wagons using the ecklers kit..... you may not.....

I understand where you're coming from Nifty, but this isn't the place to try to re-run a NSW Club Show and Shine event that's done and dusted.
I don't believe there's anything to be "settled" other than "sikovit" being promptly delivered his trophy, which he should have received on the day it was awarded.
As others have said, there are more constructive ways of airing grievances with aspects of the Club's operation.

yeah your right gtc....but is it a case of sour grapes?
true im not a member of nsw club,or any club for that matter....but this is not the first ( or last ) time this has happened in ALL manner of sports/games/events....
bit like..."my dads better than your dad"
all im trying to say is....grow up....get a life....ITS A CAR......BIG DEAL......
is it worth losing friends over? thats all corvettes are to me...
an avenue of friendship.... you know what im talking about with the C.O.W.s gtc....true i dont own a vette anymore,and prob never will....but the friendship remains....if i never owned one,or wasnt interested in them i KNOW i wouldnt have these friends....
to throw friendship away over a 2 doller trophey? geeezus "h" christ...

WHERES MY BLOODY 2ND PRIZE TROPHIE? THATS RIGHT, 2ND PRIZE AGAIN. ALWAYS TO THE SAME PERSON. WHEN IS THIS CLUB GONNA GET HALF SERIOUS ABOUT JUDGING CARS? I DONT MEAN PAYING PRO'S TO DO IT BUT HOW ABOUT GETTING OUR VOLUNTEER JUDGES TO SCOPE THE RANGE BEFORE ACTUALLY JUDGING THEM. MY ENGINE BAY KICKS ARSE BUT ONLY GOT 5 MORE POINTS THAN THE GUY THAT ALWAYS COMES FIRST AND HIS E/BAY IS PLAIN. OR IS IT BECAUSE IM NOT 80 YO AND DONT SOCIALISE WITH CLUB HIERACHY? KEEP THE TROPHIE IM DOIN WHAT MY MATES TOLD ME TO DO AGES AGO, IM NOT RENEWING MY M/SHIP.

Nice rant. 8/10 You lose points for the lack of spelling errors and too much punctuation. Bonus points for all caps. Needs more "Don't you know who I am !!" style comments though.
Will read again. ;41;41;41;41;41
