Josh's LEDs are Blue but mine are White.

I'm sure we can see them but they just won't pop out as much as they would in the garage.

All of us got our LEDs from the same source right ?

originally there were 1200 cars... had to trim down to 450. there are plenty of high end show cars on the waiting list.. so follow instructions and get your payments in on time. if not, you will loose your spot.

less than one month... get them last minute mods on your cars.

***Think outside the box.. the judges will be looking for uniqueness, not the same old setup from previous years***

Quote from JR@ WEKFEST:

"regular reg's = 450 cars.... Vendors and their cars = 42.... and returning champs and top finishers added---> 73 - I am tripping about HOW TOUGH its going to be to not just get into the show as a competitor but to even take home hardware at the end of the event! It's going to be very hard on the judges! All the cars are heavy hitters! "

wrapping your car and writing on it with a marker won't net you a 1st place trophy anymore...

From last weeks staff meeting.. the hardest cars to judge will the be Lexus/VIP class b/c of the shear volume of registered cars.. like I said, there are more Lexus vehicles than Hondas.

So get ready to see the best of the best in all the Lexus/VIP categories.

Personally, I cannot wait to see what everyone has been cooking up. As a judge, you get to know each car that roll through year after year.. we are very sensitive to new cars and themes. Owners that bring fresh new ideas usually get's the win. It's not about how long your bolt on list is.. but how each part selected jives together with one another.

Ultimately, does your car have that WOW factor.. Simple.

Name that movie:

Viper: In case some of you are wondering who the best is, they are up here on this plaque.
[turns to Maverick]
Viper: Do you think your name will be on that plaque?
Maverick: Yes, sir.
Viper: That's pretty arrogant, considering the company you're in.
Maverick: Yes, sir.
Viper: I like that in a pilot.

This show is bringing back memories of my Acura show days 13 years ago! More mods...every show! custom paint, chrome, lighting, engine mods, painting/powder coating undercarriage etc...! Good luck to all Lexus competitors/family. Glad to see the luxury line outnumbering Hondas for once.
