The winner was that purple celica. Which imo is bull, because its a sponsored car, sure it was nice but... I mean wtf, if I am getting all my parts free my car would be cool too. As opposed to most of the people out there having to go work and privately fund their car/mods.

Sponsored or not she still rolled out with a very nice ride. Just because you're sponsored doesn't mean you don't put money or effort into a car. Hell I'm sponsored and I know I've still emptied my bank account quite a few times on my car. It's the nature of the game. There is no shame in having a sponsor.



Anyway, Thanks a lot everyone for those that came out and braved the weather! It was a little iffy at first but I think it went pretty well. This being our first show we sat down and talked about different things that we can do better to make the show smoother and enjoyable. We hope everyone enjoyed it and from all of us at team Solo want to thank you for coming out!

I took a buttload of pics with John's camera. Snapped a couple on my point and shoot also. Will post them up in a little bit and John will probably post his after he edits them.

I really want to thank everyone who came out and for bearing the bad weather. I always felt that the only thing that could really damper this show was the weather and it must have cuz over 20 cars that pre-registered didn't come out. I do want to say thank you to those who came and braved out the rain. It meant a lot to us. We are going to do it again but we have all decided to do it in the winter. So again I want to thank everyone that came out.

The winners went as followed as far as the Toyota guys.

1st place GS went to Terry-
1st place SC went to Ed-
1st place IS went to Neeman-
1st place Celica went to Wide body celica
1st place Supra went to Roger

Best of show Fan favorite went to the wide body celica aswell.(Best of show was voted on by the registered cars and also the spectators)

Wow.. lots of clean work done on the SC300's..

I don't agree with that widebody, the Cobra/Transformers thing.. juez with the cobra shaped hood intake.. a bit over kill. I see hombred's Celica there, I think thats a nicer celica. (I can say.. I own a Celica haha)

Overall, loads of really nice cars.

Bring the Competition to SR4 this year guys! Lexus 1st-3rd, Best of Show, loads of categories.. check us out!! (shameless plug.. but I had to.. gorgeous showing of cars right thear')

Dan's celica along with all the other Team Solo cars were only there on display. We weren't in the show. As for the widebody celi, it was actually very interestingly done.
